2005 LQ4 build
I came along a deal and have an lQ4 6.0 out of a 2005 truck. I'd like to use the motor for a retro in a 67 camaro Rs/Ss. Right now for financial reasons I think ill stick to N/A but would like to get more than stock power(of course) , later on I would like to use some form of forced air induction whether it be supercharged or turbo, I'm leaning toward turbo... Any suggestions?? Thanks

challenged, if it fits under your hood...run it. Headers and a decent tune will
wake it up big time and IIWY I'd just put a small 224/224 .588 lift @ 114ls
cam in there with new hardened pushrods and some Lunati or Brian Tooley
dual valvesprings. An LS2 timing chain and a new high pressure oil pump 2.
If funds allow, perhaps remove the heads, do a fresh valvejob, surface, and
install new LS9 GM cometic head gaskets and ARP headstuds in preparation
for the turbo boost to follow. A simple Borg Warner S480 can make about
650 rwhp on E85 and moderate 12-14 lbs. of boost.
