saw this in one of the tx2k19 coverage videos from 1320video. i was watching the build thread on ls1tech a while ago but haven't seen any updates recently on the car, looks like it has changed owners but is still around and kicking. skip to 8:18 to see the feature

Yea, I think his name is Jon Atkins? Calls it The Grubworm, I believe. Awesome setup.

From what they claim on FB, its a hodge podge of late 90s era stuff in the motor. Certainly proving that a spot on chassis and driver can make the best of a poor combo.

he said in the video its a filled block with scat crank, compstar rods, dss pistons and 88/91 turbo. wish they had shown the engine bay, would love to see what else is going on
i want that t56 setup in my car (maybe not faceplated though) but $$$..... one day :(
edit: found this after posting, shows the engine bay and cage setup. surprised not so see some sort of intercooler but maybe they added it later

Fairly certain its running on M1 and lots of it. So no need for an IC.

Seen that car at Tick when I was getting my engine worked on. Talked to the original owner for a short period of time before he sold it. It was back in for some upgrades mainly a larger turbo. 850rwhp on 15psi at the time if I recall. It was sick then back in 2013! That thing is moving out so hard and from a old GenII.

He said he wanted the look of the grub worm. I don’t think it’s the same car in the video.

that's not the same car, the grub worm car is staying gen 2 lt1, he said he's building another lt1 on the side with better internals that he will be swapping into it after SCT charlotte
here is another feature from 1320 that was posted yesterday with some under hood shots

Yes well this is great news. I can only be envious. At this point unless I again win the lottery or someone gives me one I'll have to settle with an eaky squeaky little 13. sum car. That is cool though
