Love them too. A Buddy of mine up here has 3! His father collected them, he will NEVER sell them. They are worth substantially more than the houses they are parked at LOL

Draw through set ups actually work well as the fuel atomized very well going through the turbo. It also works as a heat sink to reduce IAT's. Benefit #3 is you can run a regular non boost referenced carb. Few rotaries up here running "suck through" systems.

Ford is Volvo is Ford though.

Beat me too, well all of it!

Hard to beat a guarantee in writing. This starts the day we take application, and will be honored against a competitor's GFE or LE. We will drop our pants to keep a good loan. https://nlcloans.com/rates/ We are also good down to 580 Fico on purchase and Refi, even on manufactured homes. That alone is better than 90% of other lenders out there.

If you working with the wrong lender. My team averaged 16 days from docs to clear to close last month, and we could have been better! You can avoid PMI with as little at 5% down if you have a clever banker with the right programs. And I agree on not escrowing (if thats an option for you)

Same here-braking ground in Spring. How tall will your ceilings be? Who are you building with?

Its literally perfect. GLWS

Sub'd

That fucker rolled out from 40. That was back in the prime time "mexico" days. Realy question is, who actually owned that car? :dumb:

I have looked into it. Low end is 45-50k to build. Real cheap and dirty for 35k. You can buy them used with various engines for 40-60k

Is that the car that was for sale up here?

Not for an Evo No

Seriously-thats a light hit away from DEATH

Yes that would work. I have welded, and jb welded in the past. No failuers to date

I am going to resuscitate it in some form. Known good LS1 blocks are getting hard to find-and its almost 100lbs lighter than what I am putting in, so I think I will set this up as the backup motor. The pistons are perfect-so worst case I get some rods and toss em' in. As for turbo, I am very happy with how Chad@ On3’s turbos looked, performed, and are priced. I think I may be able to sneak 1000whp out of his 88mm when most of the internet thinks it’s not possible. I’m down to scatter a motor attempting it.

I make 800+with stock rails I just put 3/8 barb'd ends on. I would not bother!

All good things must come to an end. I took a deposit on the motor and told the buyer I would check the rods before I shipped. Low and behold-3 are visibly bent! I an sure there are more than have a little wave in em' but needless to say the deposit was returned! To recap-852whp@21psi uncorrected (872whp STD) Best of 10.2@146 on 15psi Bone stock Ls1, down to the cam! I have a 05+ 5.3 to try out with the "big" rods to see if the dyno queen can squeeze some Jam out of another $200 motor! Turbo set up will be new as well-only to try out a single set up. I have to say, it will be hard to beat the twins! We will see. Updates on LS JUAN 2.0 coming soon... http://i1003.photobucket.com/albums/af154/coltboostin/LsxRx7/IMG_20151209_085833254_HDR.jpg

great progress

Stock bottom end? Sotck hardware? Stock power?

I think most that do it are drag racers, so the motor truly sees little time at max RPM. A stock 6.0 in a road race for 30 laps for example may not last @ 7250 rpm Also its the internet. One "expert" tosses a rod, and everyone hops on the fear bandwagon

Thats the most V8 sounding V6 i think I have ever heard

may have missed that-but is that a billet 62mm?

You can do it on the cheap. A lot depends on cam selection-if you go with a radical cam you need light aftermarket valves/valvetrain as well. If you just slam a 4.8 crank in a 6.0 you can do it pretty cheap. Yes, it would be vrey cool NA! I am tempted to build one-but I already ask a lot out of stock parts. I think asking everything (trans included) to work well at 8k with "max boost" would get expensive in a hurry! As for your car- no way i would swap a newer, runing clean title car unless you like flushing money right down the toilet!! Staring to see FRS's come up in salvage auctions- thats the ticket there!! And Rx8's are STUPID cheap-another great option for light/balaced chassie at a cheap buy in.

Old news. And everything is better with a turbo! http://www.lsxtv.com/news/video-a-1000-horsepower-ls-engine-revving-to-almost-8000-rpm/ Same motor NA And in the car! Just look at that power curve!
