Here are a few pics of the 6.0 swap I just finished with a single turbo.

 

 

That looks Effin SICK! Props. Looks immaculate, Color choice is perfect too. Well done!

 

Very nice! Almost looks like it could be stock! (That is, if GM ever put a turbocharged LS in a Thirdgen!) Where did you mount your coolant bottle?

 

I mounted a bottle under the filler panel in the front by the hood latch.

 

very nice, mad props for that!

 

That is awesome man!

 

thats sick i am thinking about doing a LS7 swap in mine

 

yea good luck on that... thats about a 30,000$ or more motor

 

damn dude...

 

wow looks very sick i wanna do this when i swap mine next summer.

 

Very clean setup. Props. Any HP numbers or track times?

 

Have you had it dynoed?

Eric

 

SICK! what did you do in regards to engine management? ecm?

 

Wow thats the way i should have gone but oh well.

Very nicely done and very nice car. Dont see many black with red stripes like that

 

absoutely beautiful, very clean.

thats very similar to how i mounted my tc-78 in my 91. that was on a gen 1 355 tho, now i am starting an LQ4 build myself.

id be very interested in any build pics youd like to share,
especially hotside pics.
thanks very much!
you can pm me if you want
nice job!

 

Dont go LS-7, get a 6.0 truck block and get an eagle forged assembly and RHS or trick-flow heads. Mine is 425 ci and makes just as much power as the LS-7 (Only cost me around $14,000 too!)

82z28man; Just beautiful!! Gotta love a black thirdgen, especially when it's as clean as yours!

 

Nice clean install! Looks like it belongs there!!

 

Not yet but very soon, i've only got the wastegate set to about 6 lbs right now and it pulls very hard, i plan to make about 10 so i cant wait to see how it feels then.

Its an 01 PCM that I tune with HP tuners.

Extremely nice job !! Mad props !! However, I seemed to have noticed in your sig, it says LT1.... that doesn't look like an LT1 ?? Or is it ??

 

That is one heck of a wolf in third gen clothing. Have fun smearing the track with mustangs and 4th gen's.

 

currently redoing mine for a similair setup. Do you have some more pics of your setup? It would help me in decideing were to put my turbo. Thanks

 

Which manifolds did you use? I have some truck manifolds but I don't believe they will work on the 3rd gen. Do you have a build thread? I am doing a 89RS as we speak.

 

still waiting on those hp numbers lol!

 

Good timing because i just put it on the dyno yesterday. A little dissapointed in the hp, 512 hp and 573tq at the wheels. I need to add some timing on the top end and the hp should get up there, i just didnt have time to change it and log it to make sure there was no knock. heres a video of the run.

Very nice....!

 

How quick does that turbo spool up? What cam?

 

NASTY!!!

 

about to start on mine now using a 6.0 block L92 heads and holley 102mm Hi ram intake with LS9 internals (cam gaskets) what did you do to the 4l80e because ill be using the same trans and what stall did you go with.

 

Its a ck performance level 2 with a trans brake. Still completely controlled by the pcm. The converter is a precision 3200 with a 3 disk lock up.

 

very well done indeed

 

This turbo mounting looks very well done!

Do you happen to have more detailed photos of the exhaust crossover?

 

This is actually a build thread from when I first built the car. Ive done alot of changes to it since then. Heres my latest build thread from a couple years ago. Theres alot more detailed pics of the turbo set up. http://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-ind...80e-build.html

 

Awsome setup! I saw pics of the manifolds on your ls1tech thread. What kind of manifolds are they, is the passenger side custom or is it sold somewhere? Do you have a video anywhere online? I followed the myspace link but there is no longer a video posted. I would love to hear it with the 4" magnaflow, I have the same exhaust on my NA 383 and I'm looking to go turbo LS.
Thanks

 

Thank you, The driver side is a factory manifold I spent alot of time on cleaning up and the passenger side is one that I built. heres a video of the car, not really the best for sound but it might give you and idea of what it sounds like.

 

Wow! What a fkn win! Makes the fire burn when I see a thirdgen take off like that from a dig...

 

Thanks for the quick reply. Way to walk all over that Z06...
