damn dude ! its sweet

 

you got a shit ton of projects going on dude

 

I want a boosted v8. Hopefully this winter it will happen.

 

How do you have time for a real job?

 

I dont sleep!

 

Yes i do plus doing 2 builds in the same garage but condensed tools and other stuff needed. It also helps that I have reliable DDs for the wife and myself.

Everyone needs a boosted V8. Even Brian

 

Looks good Steve, though you need more chrome under the hood!!

 

I'm trying to figure out why the valve springs were so hard to install. I've done too many sets on LS motors to count and the only ones that were really a pain were on a 4th gen F-body with ETP heads. The head has a .5" thick deck and raised valve cover rails. All under the cowel of a 4th gen. So what was so difficult? Off the car they are cake with the right tools.

 

nice build. i swear im the only lsx owner on VAD who cant afford a turbo build lol.

 

You know I dont do chrome, thats your department. I am doin some black and anodized powder coating but its prob going to come later.

The heads were off and we had a valve spring tool its just the valve springs kept wanting to shoot out the side. Got the hang of it after a few times though. It was just a PITA compared to LS6 springs, lol.

LOL turbo setups are not fun to build but the end result is awesome. The turbo headers I was buying the guy backed out of so now i gotta rethink my build.
