I had a 461 Pontiac stroker, with CNC ported heads, big cam, nitrous plate, etc. I finally went the turbo LS route and never went back. The power per dollar is nearly impossible to beat. Reliability is amazing too. I resisted the trend for a long time, but I'm on my 5th LS swapped build now.

Heres my current thinking for my street turbo combo. Longest runner intake I can get with good flow. Slightly larger than stock cam to get more rpm while maintaining power while out of boost. Slightly oversized turbo to grow into, but also allow themotor to cruise while out of boost. Cool iat's, cool fuel, and oversized rad and oil coolers = stress free daily boost. Thanks for the vids Richard!

Yo. I daily drive my GTO. It’s been reliable for 3-4 years now. Here’s my combo. Aluminum 5.3, summit Pro LS forged pistons and H beam rods. .026 ring gap. ARP head bolts, arp main studs. Did NOT line hone block. Ls9 head gaskets. Summit ghost cam. If I had to do it again, I’d put an ls6 cam or ls2 cam. Ported 243 heads. Ferrea valves Billet wheel 7875 1.25 ar exhaust housing. Full 3.5” exhaust 4l60. 3800 pas yank Convertor. I built the trans, it’s all billet shafts, 4l79 drum etc etc. 3.45 gears. Max boost is 24psi on 93 octane. 9.4:1 compression. O I forgot. I did upgrade the radiator. Didn’t make much difference. Put proform Brushless fans and that helped. I have a medium size trans cooler.

I built an aluminum ls4 for a Grand Prix gxp and thought my motor had been refreshed before. My bearings rods and mains were perfect ( I had never taken apart an ls) I didn’t even replace them and bearing clearance were right on the money. It’s been a really fun process. My only regret was picking the front wheel drive motor it kind of puts you in a box and the 4t65e transaxle is weak

The thing I have seen fail in the Hard ran LS Is the crank due to the placement of the thrust bearing. I'm currently doing my first LS upgrade. Between you and Travis black I think I can now make a decent tow truck. But after 3 million miles of long haul driving I kind of want a turbo for the foot hills when pulling the 4k pound loaded enclosed lawn trailer. I want to be Abel to run Regular gas so I have the Truck Norris valve set on the shelf waiting on the end of lawn season.

I really like this style topic, Richard. I think you could do some more that would help debunk some common myths (review for long time viewers, but would still be entertaining and informative). How about: (1) "dual plane is all you need" where you show with different engine sizes and cams you have to build an extreme engine to benefit from a single plane or any of the other options. victor jr ftw. (2) Your carburetor is (probably) too big. (3) Street car? Focus on power under the curve, not peak HP and TQ numbers. (4) DIY turbo ring gap, three ways (there are at least three ways, right?). With the standard, I have a lot of time but low money method, the I am short on time and happy to buy a (ring gap) tool, inbetween, send it to a shop, or buy new larger gap rings. That's 5... but help us decide what's best for each of us!

Great video. I am going to be doing a single turbo 5.3 4l80e swap on my 98 mustang. Hp goal is 800-1000hp range. I plan to get the heads ported and install a cam (probably going to take your advice on the Truck Norris cam). Is the VSR nextgen 7875 billet wheel turbo a good option for this goal? I have seen a few of the videos you've made on the turbos, I like the responsiveness, I like the way they perform, and according to speedway, they're rated to 1150hp. It's not going to be a daily driver, but it will be driven on the street regularly and plan on doing drag and drive events with it.

Hi Richard, You've done more testing to these motors than anyone I've seen before so I was hoping you could give me your thoughts on my build and turbo sizing. I have a Mk IV 454 with thumb rods, cast crank, dished pistons (7.8:1) and 781 large oval heads. 228/228 .544/.544 cam with appropriate springs ARP 3/8 rod bolts, head studs, MLS gaskets, resurfaced heads, new moly rings gapped to 0.032 on both I purchased a pair of Maxpeedingrods 68mm ceramic ball bearing turbos with the 0.81 A/R turbine housing. They appear to be an exact copy of the Garrett G35-1050. Looking at the compressor map they also appear to be very similar to the GT45 ebay turbos you use, but far more efficient. Are these turbos appropriate? My goal is 1000hp however this is a road/circuit race car, it will experience a lot of its time at WOT. I fear I may have oversized my turbos and the boost threshold will be too high for a nice wide powerband. What do you think would be a safe power goal and redline for continuous high horsepower use? 5500rpm? This will be with a holley super sniper EFI.

Remember these are controlled differently than the normal 4L60E's that come in many of these cars so make sure you can control it properly. I have a van 4L80E in my Firebird and used a PCMofNC controller cable to be able to run it with my stock PCM running ~550rwhp through it with no issues, but if your hitting 1000hp you really want to have it refreshed and built a bit.

That depends. If it’s a truck, you’d do better with the extra stoke a 5.3 has. It takes tq to get weight moving and keep it moving. The little 4.8 will struggle more keeping a heavy vehicle moving so you’ll burn more fuel. But, if it’s a car, the 4.8 would save fuel.

@@richardholdener1727 well I agree with you on the 2002 Chevy is way too high but my 2019 for sure gets 22-24 on average and will get 26-28 on the highway. You must consider: it’s got aluminum doors, aluminum hood, aluminum tailgate, 8 speed trans, direct injection, cylinder deactivation and the DFCO works almost till I coast to a stop which cuts the injectors off. Research it, these new Chevy trucks get crazy good fuel mileage.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but if a turbo is rated for 500hp, will a twin-turbo setup make 1,000hp?
@ericwilson2585
@ericwilson2585 Ай бұрын
Yes. If you use 2 turbos that are capable of doing 500 each, they together will do 1000.

Yes but twins is worse at everything...except sometimes packaging. A single 1000hp turbo is better than 2x 500hp turbos on a V8.

Junk. They squirt a stream instead of atomized fuel. Deka 60’s or deka 80’s are your best bet for budget. Very easy to tune either one. If you need hp tuners injector data, hit me up I can email you a tune with the data.

So just a quick question, the previous owner of my truck was building it for boost, it is currently N/A would rings being gapped for boost make it “smoke” at 3/4-100% throttle?
@richardholdener1727
@richardholdener1727 Ай бұрын
the added ring gap doesn't cause excessive smoke unless you have bad ring seal to begin with

I have a 255 liter per hour pump for my primary and a 525 hellcat pump for my secondary. I might have enough for 1000hp pump gas but probably not e85. And a 525 on it own ain’t gonna do it especially e85.

You keep saying that a better flowing head won't make any difference if you only want 1000hp. What if the motor is intended for road racing? I assume that you need less boost, which builds less heat, which in turn makes the life of the motor easier, if you use a higher hp n/a motor as the base for the build.

The camshaft is the least important...... according to this engine builder I know (His name is Richard holder) every camshaft is a turbo camshaft ! The most important (in my opinion) would be the engine management system !

Richard, how about some Audi 5 cyl content??? Specifically the mid 80s through early 90s 10 and 20 valve engines. Dump the bs Bosch mechanical FI and throw a single 32-36 Weber or clone on a cobbled together intake ( 5 cyl engines aren’t supposed to run worth a crap with common plenum intake manifolds) . See what the results are. Then mod the stock intake to accept 5 single bbl carbs like Weber 34 ICTs or clones. Or maybe 5 single bbl Carter or Rochester carbs. Then do a turbo conversion. Either draw through or blow through. Then some Eaton supercharger configurations. It would be some fun stuff.
