what cam for a turbo setup?

[sr_ryan1]

LQ9 forged bottom, i was thanking running twin G30's with some kind of cam?

Ok so is your motor an LQ9 or is it a 6L block with forged piston rods and crank BIG difference? Also what are your boost goals? Is this a daily driver? What size turbo(s) are going to be feeding the engine for sure? Are you going to be running a stall? Need more info man. A 190/195 .500 .500 104lsa should do the trick

i want 12-15 lbs of boost, i dont need a stall, i will be using the NP8 t-case with 4L80E, yes forged pistons and rods, no not sure what turbo housing ill end up having to use due to space issues, this is going into a 00 4x4 s-10 pickup, i cant run any headers, only stock 98 f-body manifoldsl,

if i cant do the turbos i want a stroker LS7.

Unless you got 20K plus and your name already on the list for an LS7 crate motor that aint going to happen man. Concentrate on the turbo setup. You may want to look into an sts turbo setup you dont need space under the hood for it. Are you going to be using on or offroad and is it a daily driver? To minimize turbo lag oyu really need a stall. Are you going for speed or offroad ability?

more of a street truck, so yes i would like to keep driveabilty and a safe boost leave, what size stall do you suggest? thanks i will look into the STS's.

3000 stall. GT-7 turbo cam. If your looking for a big lopey cam this is not the cam for you.But' if your looking for a turbo cam that sounds stock and makes some huge trq #'s this is the cam to go w/.

A 6.0L in a s10. Bad ass!

Im putting a STS turbo kit on a 2000 s10 extrem Blazer right now. I'll post some dyno #'s when were done. Im taking it to Allen to get tuned and dyno'd soon.
