[@8089kyle]

I see a powerfist stool and i know immediately im watching a fellow canuck wrench.

[@johnbehneman1546]

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I LOVE BUDGET LS BUILDS. GREAT VIDEO AND EDUCATION. THANKS FOR SHARING.

[@daviddonaghy7568]

I like how you answer questions that people ask in the comment section.

[@jackperry9369]

U gotta do more ls pinto stuff please love the back yard swaps

[@billmelater9327]

Always loved the idea of plastic guides.

[@jeronunkoffunk9437]

Nice video, love the real world approach to swap especially in the pinto I love those body pintos

[@frankieford7668]

I love your low buck approach to the build...👍

[@prancstaman]

Good philosophy on the buildup. Less weight on bottom end with less movement gives you a safer higher rpm, plus less space for the turbo to fill. I rarely see this kind of thinking, let alone doing it. Goona take full advantage with it in a little light car. :)

[@walthansen6333]

You definitely have my attention..... Love Pinto's (learned to drive in one), and nothing like swapping 'whateveryagot' with an LS..... keep going.

[@rickhunter-wolff]

When the British 1.6liter 4 banger blew in my Pinto, I rebuilt a 289 and installed using an Advanced Adapters kit. Included everything. Cheap easy swap. Too bad the car fell apart around the drivetrain....

[@zacgoode1834]

Sweet channel! aluminum 4.8 is gonna be sweet! the gt45 is hard to beat for the price. I went 9.80s with one with a 5.3 at 3200lbs.

[@sheldonvanek9791]

Kool can't wait for this engine to get together!!

[@Thehouseofboost]

Sheldon Vanek thanks!

[@ryan-gn2jy]

I’ve been highly anticipating this build.

[@entropy156]

It doesn't look like there's any updates on this, but I'd love to know what you did in terms of mounts and such. I've got a nitrous/sbf Pinto and it's getting a bit tired, so I've considered going to the dark side....

[@muertefin]

Pinto the perfect sleeper car

[@Ka_Gg]

Houseofboost - what times of mounts did you use when you LS swapped a pinto? I'm not a ford guy, but I can get a pinto really cheap and just wondering how you did it. Thanks

[@Ka_Gg]

*What type

[@Thehouseofboost]

I’m going to use a motor plate from ict billet.

[@DRAGONCARMK1CARIBE]

Visiting friends, excellent channel and very useful video, I saw it complete, greetings and already activate the bell to be on the slope when you go up a new video🤗😉👌

Whatever happened to the Pinto, haven't seen any updates lately?

[@DGass87]

Will this need a front or rear sump oil pan? Looking forward to updates

[@Thehouseofboost]

[@jesscneal]

I love Pintos. Good luck Dario

Jess Neal thanks man!

[@jbtibbals8490]

Pt 2?

[@motorcityracing7319]

Nice build hopefully help my buddy make a vid of his 6.0 built with 4.8 crank and rods should be a good build

[@lightning95sc]

What's the reason for the destroke and what's the benefit? Tell us more...….

[@johnnikollaj496]

@@lightning95sc revs much quicker

[@lightning95sc]

@@johnnikollaj496 What does that bring the displacement to?

[@CrankAddict]

sounds like a fun project. Why is the music so loud?

[@roxanacastillo8460]

Any turbo aluminum Ls1s on the build up?

[@wadehoffman4696]

Do you plan on getting back on the pinto? Love your content, man.

[@Thehouseofboost]

Wade Hoffman yes just collecting parts

[@richardparks3702]

Have you set the ls in the pinto? Did you make mounts or are you using engine plates ?

[@dposcuro]

You need to learn the ways of AvE's method of focusing the camera....

[@JoeHynes284]

how many miles were on it?

[@alansnowden1247]

Keep up the work

[@Thehouseofboost]

Alan Snowden thanks!

[@claytonstoolbox]

Use a Ford engine.

[@jordanalderman2557]

I would buy the 5.3 pistons and rods out the motor if your not using them

[@Thehouseofboost]

Jordan Alderman I’ll let you know if I sell them.

[@whitelx]

What was the 2.3 combo?

[@Thehouseofboost]

whitelx billet crank/rods esslinger head, s366 turbo, c4 trans.

[@seanclancey5284]

The Sloppy Stage 2 Cams, what is the specs on it? Seems like alot of guys are using this cam.

[@Thehouseofboost]

Sean Clancey 228/230 .585 lift on a 112

[@seanclancey5284]

These cams do you have a link to where i can purchase one from? Thank-You.

[@Thehouseofboost]

Sean Clancey Jegs sells them under there own brand.

[@seanclancey5284]

Thanks i googled it and Jeg's was the first link that popped up. This Cam sounds pretty good listened to a few videos impressive.

[@Thehouseofboost]

Sean Clancey yes it has a nice chop to it

[@loganglenn5270]

Can you delete that timing chain tensioner?

[@Thehouseofboost]

Logan Glenn Yes, you just need to use a ls2 style chain.

[@loganglenn5270]

Cool, all i need is the chain? i can use the timing gears?

[@Thehouseofboost]

Logan Glenn Yes the gears are the same.

[@loganglenn5270]

Thehouseofboost can I just use a gen 3 4.8/5.3 timing chain since they don't use a tensioner?

[@Thehouseofboost]

Logan Glenn yes a gen3 one will work also

[@austindoud273]

How bent were the valves

[@Thehouseofboost]

Austin Doud I’m pulling them apart today, they don’t look too bad

[@ernestomejia110]

do you have a link for where to get the turbo?

[@Thehouseofboost]

Ernesto Mejia rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F122809788764

[@ernestomejia110]

Thank you!

[@ernestomejia110]

Would this turbo perform good on a 5.3 instead of a 4.8? If not, do you happen to know a similarly low cost ebay turbo for a 5.3? Thanks

[@Thehouseofboost]

works good on a 5.3l too. Just not a 6.0l

[@obbzerver]

So whatever happened to this?

[@Thehouseofboost]

obbzerver going to be starting on it again, got side tracked with the mini.

[@steedsgarage]

Dario, Do you recommend ARP headbolts and why. I know a lot of sloppy people recommend stock.
