Very nice indeed!

Looks like you have that motor sitting forward just like mine... if MINE was actually IN the truck. LOL
Should be an AWESOME sleeper!
That is going to be one nice ride.
Mine a little forward too. Wish I had that set up on my '86.Quote:

Wanna come finish my swap for me!?!?!?!??
:LOL:
That is awesome, that truck is gonna fly!!! Nice work man!
I have been using the trucks on this forum for inspiration, will try to fire it up this week. I am getting the a/c lines crimped this morning and hope to have the exhaust back on tomorrow.
I changed the injectors to 60lb and do not know how to change the setting in HP tuners. I am afraid i will foul my plugs on start up.
Post up in the proper forum, I am sure people can tell you what to do (I can't!).Quote:

looks great! what are you going to do about the intake and charge pipe connecting? seems like it will be somewhat tight
I got the exhaust, turbo, waste gate all tight. Made the intercooler pipe and I will work on some type of crankcase vent tomorrow and maybe start it up!

well my engine took a dump on me in February, I think I caused the problem when I put the ARP rod bolts before I did my swap. I think after the ARP's the clearance on the crank was just to tight. it is now a 408 with a GTK 1000 turbo it should be back it the truck in the next week. I cant wait to start tuning!
YouTube - LQ4 4l80e Bored and Stroked to 408 1985 Silverado
thats insane, i love the intake, im thinking of doing something like that but we'll see
glad to see my goal finished by some one else. looks awesome
Thats cool that you have dual tanks that work you could fill one with e 85 for high boost and the other with regular gas for normal driving.
good comeback with the 408. nice truck.
What size was your original turbo?
