Ok now that thats all outa the way the fun stuff.. This build will be a 95 lt1 mated to a 4L60E.. There will be a turbo and possibly a small amount of nitrous.
The motor and trans have been in the car a few times to make sure that all the planned fun will fit.. so far its is tite fit but it is going to be possible.
So far I have been doing the fitments part of this beast now that I have everything figured out I can start spending the big money on the motor..
The plan is
SCAT CHEVY FORGED 4340 STANDARD WEIGHT CRANKSHAFTS
4340 FORGED H-BEAM RODS
A set of forged pistons.
A set of trickflow heads
Lightweight valves.lifters ect ect
A custom roller cam
1.7 roller rockers
ported intake with a 58 mm TB
electric water pump
and prolly some more stuff im forgetting.
the turbo will be determined after the motor is together with the test turbo that i have ..
once its running and tuned we'll use the info to figure out the correct size turbo..
the test turbo i have is a Super T70
heres some pics more pics of the car ... some of them are of the motor with the turbo headers on some are of the interior after I dyed it all black and some are of the fire wall after I filled a bunch of holes .. enjoy

That thing is going to be deadly!
I wish I could build a turbo car but my compression is going to be way to high for boost.

Thats a badass project that I have always wanted to do. I have a few questions though...where did you get those headers, what are they for and whats the cost of them? Also what did you use to dye your interior, it turned out really nice.
Thanks in advance and keep up the good workLE3 355, M6, Fully Bolted & Full Suspension, 3.5" Mufflex w/Borla, MWC Fab 9 w/Watts Link, 315 NT555 on all 4 Corners
