For all the LT1 guys...
 
I was just browsing LS1tech and came across this car: http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/lt1-lt...-thread-3.html http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...4/IMG_2106.jpg

Pretty sweet that a 19 year old is doing a turbo build and built everything by himself(motor, trans, fabbed the turbo manifold, etc.)

Kinda pisses me off. I thought I was the only one with that color intake manifold but looks like alot of work went into it and so far appears to be real clean set up.

sweetbmxrider 05-20-2009 09:15 PM

looks sweet. kinda weird how the intake and block are blue :-?

and do something with the waterpump! paint/polish or something!

Formulalt1 05-20-2009 09:23 PM

I think since the block is painted blue and those wp fittings are blue, he would have to go another color like black or it would just look horrible,

Edit- but you're not really going to see much at all of the wp once the intake is on. My WP is painted and with my intake on you can barely see any of it due to the radiator/fans and intake.

sweetbmxrider 05-20-2009 09:50 PM

very true. it just looks so meh with everything else getting attention.

BigAls87Z28 05-20-2009 09:59 PM

Is he running opti still?

sweetbmxrider 05-20-2009 10:15 PM

sure doesn't look like it.

sweetbmxrider 05-21-2009 02:08 PM

there's a trigger wheel behind the balancer and he's using a stand alone to control LS1 coils

LTb1ow 05-21-2009 02:09 PM

Ya, saw that, nice setup.

Looks nice as hell with the engine bay empty like that....

black95maro 05-21-2009 03:10 PM

thats so awesome! so is the trigger wheel custom? or from an ls1?

sweetbmxrider 05-21-2009 11:11 PM

its probably part of his stand alone.

black95maro 05-22-2009 11:13 PM

so where would one acquire such an item? lol
