Setup looks killer Jezza, what sort of hp are you expecting out of this engine combination?

In one of the pictures I noticed it looks like you have a non standard thermostat housing, is that a custom made piece? I need one for my vn group a manifold as well as i didn’t come with one when I purchased it and figured id have to probably make…[Read more]

holy shit! you don’t muck around hey. great job!

Awesome progress mate, its looking super clean and the turbo install is tidy as. keep the updates flowing as progress continues. Its some motivation for me to get back into my build which is somewhat similar in comparison.

If you do find the need to change. Go the 1.28 a/r.

Being a street car, I’d just run it mate. See how it performs. I can’t foresee it being worth changing for street duties. I have a gtx4294 with 1.01 rear for my Holden 355. Haven’t run it yet though. Guys are making decent power with smaller single turbo setups so you should be fine with that a/r on the 83mm rear wheel.

Looking REALLY good mate. What size wheel and tire you got under the back? keep the updates coming. This thing is mint

The stock motors aren’t as bad as you think. I ran 11psi non intercooled with an eaton m112 blower for years with no issues on a std 5 litre. A good tune is what you need most of all.

Any updates on this? Throw some pics up to get the punters interested. Killa custom cables seems to get a lot of great reviews for lsx conversion looms too.

Coming along very nicely mate. good work!

I know the story all too well mate. Busy is good though, pays for this expensive hobby.

Any updates cav?

+1 for pics. Keep the updates coming too. Gotta love a Holden v8 powered 2nd gen, Especially boosted.

Nice work mate, very similar in specs to my turbo build. Keep the updates coming!

I got some 3.7s to suit m78 borgwarner diff for sale if you’re interested. They are surplus to my requirements as they aren’t suited to my new turbo combination.

Awesome project mate. It looks like a perfect base platform to start from. Im keen to see how the lsa conversion turns out. Will be keeping an eye on this thread for sure.!
