Twin Turbos for the 1970 LSX Swapped Chevelle! - LSX Chevelle Ep. 3

[@DuminguMphande]

fabricators are the mvps of custom builds... its not just welding , its figuring out 3d jigsaw puzzles

[@SalvagetoSavage]

And Tim's got it nailed down to a science; especially when it comes to making sure nothing gets warped or messed up when it comes time for it all to get welded together. It definitely is a lot more than just knowing how to work a welding torch!

[@George-zq2sk]

Most epic youtube channel! The way stuff is built and explained, shows you guys really know what's up. Can't wait to see more!!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Thanks so much for the support! We're stoked you like the content and the builds!

[@wheenishere]

absolutely phenomenal channel, I have yet to be disappointed by a build

[@SalvagetoSavage]

We're so happy you think so! Glad you're enjoying the builds and the content!

[@user-kf8qc7cx4n]

The person that owns this car must truly appreciate this documentation. Gettin it done, thanks guys

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It's definitely a bonus to having the car here at the shop. It's one thing to pick up a cool custom car, it's a whole other level getting to see what goes into building it! Thanks so much for watching and all the support!

[@weiyunchi]

Yay it’s Wednesday! Front end looking fine!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Glad we could brighten up the middle of the week for you!

[@user-.]

Still surprised how each episode gets better and better, cant wait to see final results!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Glad to have you on board for the project!

[@craigcaggiano431]

Lots of fabrication of tunnel and then onto those beautiful turbos. Looking forward to your next video

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Glad you like the build!

[@zerobudget2649]

Dude your throttle bodys are sweet looking

[@SalvagetoSavage]

That intake is right from Holley Performance! They're insane!

[@ALWhiteAuthor]

I love that you're taking the time to fully weld out the tunnel. Sure... it's a huge pain in the ass because it's 14,628 tack welds because you can't just run a bead. But, it's just so much better than these seam sealer junkies.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It's such a clean car, we had to make sure to do it right!

[@briantucker4447]

Great channel guys. You guys are really fabricating guru's. The only thing I'm concerned about is the beautiful rides in the background not covered up with all the grinding, cutting and welding going on.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Luckily most of the cars in the shop are patina builds! Generally though, anything with a nice paint job next to something getting fabbed on gets pushed out of the shop for the time being

[@thomasobannon3502]

Finally someone doing the same build as me . Great work ! And thank you for the information about the transmission tunnel

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Glad it could help! We just got updates for our transmission software. So we'll be getting going on this build again within the next few weeks!

[@xdboardsurfer]

Damn that intake is KILLER.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It's from Holley Performance! They're absolutely gorgeous!

[@b00st_SS]

Killer build!! I have the poor mans version, journals bearing mirror turbos, cammed truck LQ4 with 200k, AR5 trans, in a 70 Chevelle. Your doing the unlimited budget dream build of mine! Thanks for sharing

[@SalvagetoSavage]

We just did an LS3 swap on another 70s Chevelle that had mismatched quarters, and a crooked bumper! But they both hold special places in our hearts. Builds like these are stunning and sick, but there's just something about a muscle car that you're not afraid to go out and rip no matter what the weather is looking like! Thanks for watching. We really appreciate the support!

[@rajeevmasilamony8395]

My favorite time of the week!! Thanks for making me forget my shit office job for a bit guys. Car is coming out 👌👌

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Glad we can help you get through the middle of the week. Only two more days till Friday!

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

So glad you did the comparison explanation with Cha-Ching, I couldn't quite get my head around what direction you guys were going. THANKS

[@SalvagetoSavage]

No problem! Hope you like the build!

[@robertevans6481]

Nice and clean install on those puppies. Cold side has a very short run,looking forward to the other side,like the sick truck..

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It's going to be ChaChing but in a Chevelle!

[@suprmn1978]

I love this channel! I kinda freaked when you said this car was getting chopped up…..but this is one of those used cars that you buy and you’re just awe struck with every turn. There is usually some hesitation when buying a hot rod because you never know what’s been done under all the cosmetics. You guys do it right. NEXT EP!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

We're stoked you're liking the project! Having a body as clean as this Chevelle has definitely made the fabrication less of a headache

Wow!! There is a lot going on in that engine bay, buy you guys have got this. That transmission tunnel is coming along nicely. I am eager to see how you are going to deal with those structural supports. They seem to a bit in the way at the moment. I am really enjoying the content.

Glad you like it! The track is calle Such Great Dreams by Skygaze

[@Catchertony]

What are your boost & power goals?

[@SalvagetoSavage]

We're definitely looking for 1000+! We even made ANOTHER change to our transmission set up just now that we'll be going over in the next episode, that's going to help us control that power

[@MrMindset01]

Lol badass video but I heard the spraycess come out like what lol 😆 at like 8 min 35 sec 😂 lol

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Either that or Spraycious. I think we've been making too many Fast & Furious jokes around here and now he's got NOS stuck on his mind! LOL

[@thecitiots]

Why underdrive pulleys? Won't that slow the accessories down and cause charging problems?

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It shouldn't be a big issue with this system!

[@limitlessbuilds]

You should use some Black sheep industries wastegates! Awesome products unlike anything else out there. Uses a piston instead of a diaphragm

[@SalvagetoSavage]

We're pretty hooked on the Turbosmart parts but we'll definitely give them a look. Thanks!

[@limitlessbuilds]

@@SalvagetoSavage can’t blame ya, but definitely worth a look if you’re not going electronic.

[@davntelisha19]

Ya almost done with my Chevrolet so I can send you the address to ship it too 😊

[@SalvagetoSavage]

We're getting close! lol

[@Farmer1277]

I think the turbos should be further back so the stock headlights can be left alone.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Thanks for the opinion, but we want to do it like this.

[@GlassWerx]

I know it would been alot more cutting and fab work but those turbos would looked good sitting in the headlight buckets too. I know it's been done alot but on that big orange beauty I think it would have looked Hella clean and maybe added some ornage angle eye type rings around the turbo inlets kinda distract the eye away from the turbo and make ppl think it's just a light n keep going

[@SalvagetoSavage]

That would be sick! They're just mocked up for now so we might just take that idea into consideration!

[@GlassWerx]

@@SalvagetoSavage that would be really awesome to see that

[@shaneWARs1]

I feel dumb saying this lol but I didn't no they made 2 different bodies for a auto and stick cars crazy the amount of fab to change

[@SalvagetoSavage]

The bodies wouldn't really be too different between a stock manual and stock auto trans. Maybe just a slightly different opening in the tunnel. But we're sticking a completely different trans set up in the car so we had to do some major modifications!

[@scottcarr3264]

That is going to get VERY busy in that engine bay.

[@hartbeat8609]

👍👍

[@AntonioMeisolomotori]

ma che fine ha fatto tim macedi??

[@dalebickham2666]

Why not cut the inlet manifold and angle down instead of chopping hood?!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It would be a bit easier to move the supports under the hood and get it to look clean than to try and re-angle the Holley intake. The body is getting a fresh coat of paint when it's all said and done. So cutting out the underside of hood makes a little more sense to us

[@UncleManuel]

And I'm still sitting here wondering how they are going to do the "turbo kid"... 🤪😁

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Step One: Raise and nurture the "boost baby" lol!

[@gerthduramaxjosh9611]

Dude your tunnel did not look symmetrical looking at it from the front of the car if that’s a sema build might wanna grind a little bit more off the top right corner and radius it more I looked a little flat on the top right corner looking at it from the front .Best of luck brother hope I helped you

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Thanks for the feedback. The tunnel won't be completely symmetrical because the firewall jogs down at very different angles on the passenger and drivers side in order to fit the pedal box in.

[@user-fx1dt3ul4t]

Quick question, you go to school for welding or learned over the years?

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Message Tim on IG! He's our in-house welding wizard and can give you a better idea of the right route to take. There are definitely pros and cons to each path, but if you give him a good idea of what you're trying to achieve skill/career wise, he can point you in a good direction!

[@ShotgunAU]

always legit

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Thank you!

[@jvepps]

Gosh I hate that orange but the parts under it oooo weeee

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It's gonna get a whole new paint job once the fabrication is done. To be honest though, the creamsicle color scheme has sort of grown on us here!

this is one expensive engine i was looking at a new crate engine then i got a few ho 454 bbc 450 hp engines for free with the 02xx 400r turbo . which will work just fine for a street build . ended up with 4 crate set ups from 6,000 to 58,000 miles on them all complete with radiators serpentine belt full cooler set ups for all with lines twin electric fans motor mounts trans mount drive line yoke it going to save me thousands on a build. right now i been building a 68 chevy pu next is a 79 z28 rs t top.
