5.3 C6 Z06 S476 build Previous setup was a high revving, SBE LS7, with a Holley Hi-Ram and a dry shot of nitrous. It was a lot of fun but filling bottles got a little old and expensive. Parted out the entire setup to build a semi-budget turbo setup. Decided to go with the tried and true SBE 5.3. SBE 5.3 aluminum and 243 heads BTR Stage 2 turbo cam BTR Equalizer Intake Manifold Flowtech 1-3/4" manifolds Custom hot side FI Billet s476 T4 96mm 1.10A/R Turbosmart 40mm Wastegates Fore Innovations Triple Pump setup (1) Walbro 274 and (2) Walbro 285s on a hobbs. Bosch 210 Injectors Mantic 9000 twin disc clutch Kasper Fabrications Alternator Relocation Bracket CX racing radiator and intercooler cold side kit Pretty much the gist of it. Should be running by the weekend. Will post some photos in a bit. |
Filling bottles definitely sucks! You're gonna have fun with the new turbo setup. |

Awesome, cant wait to see pics and results! |
Previous setup made 646whp on motor and 830whp on a 150 shot through a 1/8" nozzle. Went best of 10.2 @ 142 with a 1.66 60ft and 10.2 @ 150 on nitrous with a 1.90 60ft, spinning all first gear. More of a street car than a track car. Never got the hang of the launch. |

When I set the 5.3 in my Nova, it looked lost. Formerly a big block. After I completed the hot and cold sides, fuel lines etc, filled it up big time. Still easy to work on though. No headers, just stock manifolds turned around. Plug change takes no time. No need for remote coils, funky wires etc. |

It looks like a ton of space, but it sure does disappear quickly. |
