Welcome, sounds like a nasty setup, we'll have to meet up sometime when it's warm out again so I can check it out

welcome thats a pretty good list you got there

welcome

Yea for sure man winter swap hoping for spring.

welcome to the site..glad to see another sf guy on here..

whats the top end going to be for the combo?you planing on boosting her with that comp?

yes thats what im shooting for, This is what I'm planning for the top mostly have planning
Heads:sending my LT4 castings to Chad Golen 2.08/1.60 valves ? still thinking
Rocker Arms: Comp Cams Pro Mag 1.6 have
Intake Manifold: LT4 matched to head 58tb
Induction:t70 realquick setup have
Ignition/Computer: Mallory HY-Fire 685/ MSD Blaster Coil/Wideband Commander thinking to run fast xfi instead?
Headers: Pacesetter LT's
Cooling System: griffin vertical 3 core mod
Fuel System: Msd 60# injectors/ Racetronix plug and play system/ Aeromotive adj FPR/ AlkyControl Methanol Kit/ 2nd Intank 255LPH fuel pump on a switch

Open too suggestions and brains

We've got plenty of the former here, not so much of the latter :haha:

Welcome. Sounds like a fun ride :)

And I'm suprised no one else has said it, pics or ban lol!!!

ever looked into the EFI Connections Setup? running a 24X or even the better 58X ecm off of the LSx motors will have a much better result then running an aftermarket setup and the Opti. id run the coil per plug ANY DAY over a dizzy especially under pressure! Good Luck with the setup and WELCOME!

Ohh and PICS OR BAN!!!! haha

Wow, good catch Matt. Yes, we need PICS!!!!!

Yes was thinking of using the 24x or the 58x efi connection, but i would have to swap to lsx pcm correct ,harness re pin from lt1 to the ls pcm$ 500 bucks for reluctor wheels and another 500 in coils done the research and im sure there's a much more cheaper way out. Im going to run the msd opti for a while the lt1 pcm is good underboost till about 7000 rpm i believe correct if wrong!

Happy thanksgiving everyone!!!

Welcome!

welcome aboard

whats the hp goals? you doing a rear mount? i only ask cuz u list pace setter headers.what rpm are you looking to turn?,how much boost?Is that 70mm a t4 or t6,what a/r..what you doing for cross over size.whats the lobe on the cam?

honestly i would have the heads ported and look at the flow data,air speed an such of the heads then pick a cam.

a t70 is small with 383..its good for street use but depending on what you go with you might be in boost alot or be over working the turbo if you ever want to up your game and boost..

Im looking to get any were from 570-700 hp hoping maybe more if all goes as planned,its a frontmount turbo setup i currently have a supert70 t3/t4 and a t4 tc78 mostlikely going with the tc78 standard bearing but was goin to try the t70 first kick in around 4000 rpm i believe? as for the pace setters sorry from diff signiture off the motor currently using in car have swaped to hooker super comp longtubes tho.As for the cam i already picked out and installed its a Comp Cams 224 /236 .605/.624 with 1.6 (Serial Number# C 0505/ Part# 07-000-8/ Grind# LT1 3192S/3196S HR116+4 if this helps yah!
the turbo setup
Realquick hotparts
log manifolds.
2.5" cross over pipe
V-band flanges
3" downpipe
50mm HKS style wastegate with various springs for different boost levels
3 O2 sensor bungs (2 for closed loop and one on the DP for a wideband setup)
dont have cold side yet!
heads and intake talked with chad golen already pretty possitive on the setup but all opinions matter!

not knowing your a/r on the turbos but with it being a t4 and 2.5 cross over with a t70 i would put you making boost lower then that depending on a/r i would say you would probley be in max boost for your app by then..3.0 cross over would help with that..but like i said the a/r would tell all..probley small though..

the 78 would leave you more room to grow..honestly im a huge fan of the bw s400 series..600$ turbo an you cant beat it really..get the 75mm with a 1.10 a/r an run a 2.5 cross..that would be the setup i would do on a 383 for street..if i was more race then it would be the s480 which is the 80mm version or the new s500 in a 88mm with 1.32 a/r

you have the bottom end to hold a 80-91mm really..you could look into the garret gt88mm which is around 1250 new also.

Also dont sleep on the jgs blow offs and waste gates thats what a shit ton of people are using now for gates and blow offs..if not the procharger big red blow off is killer also.

if both your 78 an 70 have small a/r's then you will want to run a larger cross over to try and slow the rpm window of full boost that you have planed and over spinning the turbo and choking it with back pressure

oh ditch the logs..they suck and crack alot..check out the cheap ebay turbo headers..the ones that point forward..cut the t4 ends off you will have to mod a tube or 2 but some say just a hammer mod and some just a tube re routed mod..then finsh hot side and send out to have coated..done right hot side will only cost around 500 600

3" down pipe is tiny..its that what the ass end of the turbo is? man thats small of so..if your knecking it down then make sure you run the normal size for a bit then kneck her down...also your o2 you will want about 8" or a tad more off the ass end of the turbo

Damn nigga nos his shit i wanted a s480 but didnt want to much s400 sounds right i could sell these two and pic up a s400 sorry there not logs just call them it for some reason they are stock modified 1995 ex. manifolds ported.
John from lt1 boost said that with that TC78 it should be 700-800rwhp with the setup i got if i do the top right i paid f*cking $900 for that tc78 damn so then your saying either s400 /s500 or gt88mm hmm might be calling u over to the crib this winter lol

if you paid that much turn around and sale them you can get a new bw 75mm with blow off an gate for 1100$

heads i wouldnt sweat having a super killer top end for your power level..even then ive seen people with killer top ends make less power with so called lesser of parts..john kolivas is one of them people..he had sick 427 combo with crazy heads and his high 300ci engine with lesser heads and sort ran faster and made more power..its all about making everything work with each other vs just slapping shit together..hsi 427 works sick with twin 88s or a single 114 but with a single 88 the other made more power

an thanks..i know a lil bit but trust me im not the man..i steady try to learn and look at stuff and gather info from what i can.im alway trying to learn more in this world.i wish my memory was what it used to be because ive forgot alot to..haha

knoledge is power damn i need to learn to spell thats putnam high for you.
same here constantly reading and researching and puting my hands on any thing i can to learn and grasping any opinions i can for example yours lol.

John seems to be doing real well he use to be on this board (name realquick) havn't talked to him in awhile. good luck with the setup man,

yes i believe he is doing well dont actually no him at all but as far as his setups yea well and a great guy to deal with yes realquick

Yeah I have known him for years but in the last few havn't seen him much

I don't no were he is i no he's on camaroz28.com i last talked to him when i purchased the setup like 4 months ago he said he stopped for a while but was slowly making them again very smart and respectable dude.

Welcome to the nut house.

Yeah I know where he is I have been to his house before although he might have moved after the divorce but either way I know how to get ahold of him just havn't talked or seen him around.
