love this formula... I've seen 3 or 4 cars that I think are best so far, and this is one of them. I might need to get in on this...

Blowers make everything better



You'd never know it all fits in this innocent looking bird

91camarosRS

iTrader: (5)

As cool as that is it must be very hard to change plugs

Pocket

iTrader: (24)

Have to pull the blower, so an extra 30-45 mins. Still a fraction of what youd spend on a SBC plug change in a 3rd gen

91camarosRS

iTrader: (5)

Is it because of the plug location on a gen1 sbc?

Twin_Turbo

iTrader: (25)

Yeah changing plugs on an LS is so easy, no headers obscuring the plug.

Blowers do make everything better, and an intercooler to make changing plugs even easier ahum. Working on this is a PITA, everything goes together so tight, it's literally millimeters between components.

DAVECS1

iTrader: (2)

I here ya there, and i do not even have an intercooler yet.





BOV goes on tommorow and that will pretty much obscure the last square 6 inches above the water pump. Love to do an intercooler like what you have.

mikesanto70

What kind of wheels are those, are they off of an S-10 pick-up? What size?

mikesanto70

How is that blower off to the side like that, doesnt it go in place of the intake manifold?, but I see your intake, it is blowing my mind!!!!
That set up is wierd, that is photoshopped right?

whitedevilTA

iTrader: (8)

Pocket can chime in, but the eaton style blowers like that are self contained, meaning they don't necesarily have to be in place of the intake manifold. He made a custom bracket setup that holds the blower and has an intake duct under it which runs into a front mount intercooler and then into the engine. Def a cool setup and probably one of the only times you'll see one mounted like that lol. Thats some fab skills!

Pocket

iTrader: (24)

Its not photoshopped

I redesigned how it fits, so it becomes a remote mounted unit. I have a build thread in the LTx/LSx forum going into detail how I did it, and the last setup. Same design, smaller blower, smaller engine

mikesanto70

coolest thing I have even seen, that is trick man!!!!

mikesanto70

How much power are you expecting to see out of that 5.3 w/ the LS6 intake and cam with the T76 ? HP and RWHP

Hey Nick (BlueZee28) - you can't get in the magazine twice!

For everyone posting up engine bays, we need to see the whole car too or else we can't consider it for readers rides!

BlueZee28

iTrader: (30)

You said post updated puctures if we have them, so I did

Plus it's already been in that magazine twice haha

iansane

iTrader: (1)

Well you can always just feature his car, then no one has to worry about being two times in readers rides.

BlueZee28

iTrader: (30)

That would be pretty sweet!

iTrader: (25)

but but but...the engine bay underside and partial interior is the only thing that looks good on my car...the outside is a dump LOL

Submit it as a project! I'm sure lots of people would enjoy the custom fabwork you do on your car.

You've guys with Firebirds did fantastic work....on RUST FREE cars, but my trans needs a medic, exhaust had done broke, the tie rods and gaskets all have issues, and that's just the mechanics, but back in 1998!!??

Selling the car this week, and at worst, someone will buy it just for the TPI engine and scrap the ASC convertible shell?!?

Chill on the bickering in this thread.

92 BBC Z - if you read through the thread you'll notice that Justin is not active in it, except to post once and awhile he is looking for cars. I wouldn't expect an answer from him in this thread.
