Twin Turbo LS GBODY FIRST DRIVE!!!!!

I’m finally gettin somewhere ladies and gents!! Went on the first drive today and it wasn’t all that bad. The first few mins in the video I meant to say that I’m glad there are no red lights on the terminator… I didn’t mean to say green

[@CarsCatAliens]

G body shufflin,shufflin, g body shufflin,shufflin !! Great build man, enjoy !!

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

💪🏼 thank you, much appreciated

[@Beaux_Dillz]

Glad to see you got her out! She sounds hella good!! Damn you did your thing!! Man I can’t wait for all my bugs to be out to full spin the block!!

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Much appreciated. Deff was a long time coming. Had to use every day off of work to put the time in but it’s payin off!!! Thanks for the good wishes 💪🏼

[@traviswilliams2703]

What size tires are you running in the rear

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

It’s a 275/60/15

[@Dashsgarage]

It's getting there.

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Oh yea most definitely

[@ritchardposterior262]

did you replace the o-ring on the oil pump pickup tube? 95% sure its why you are running that oil pressure. Would be a pain in the ass to fix, and most likely wouldnt be an issue anyways. but if you are building a replacement engine. id definitely pick up a melling 10296 pump for it. (comes with the orings for the pickup tube)

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Everything was replaced.. I had it rebuilt at a machine shop for peace of mind.. oil pressure and all is fine but for my spare engine I agree with u, I do wanna go for the melling..

[@Visching101]

Looking good. Whats the turbo setup? I have a 5.3 in a fbody im trying to do here on LI.

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

It’s just two gt45s from good ole ebay.. the hot and cold side are completely custom.. all piping and even forward facing headers all came from eBay and amazon and was all cut and welded as needed

[@charliespruill4455]

Now this is sweet bro

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Thank you. I appreciate it

[@ssman9925]

How did that first ride feel.

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

It’s actually wasn’t bad.. just with the skinnies up front and the mini spool keeping the rear locked it took some getting used to when making sharper turns lol. But overall good

[@sixeight6]

Good video I'm doing my own LS swap. Would you recommend the holly xmax for the wire Harness?

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Absolutely… all plug and play.. the main advice I’d give is to make sure u replace any sensors that u think may be faulty or at there time of replacement with genuine gm sensors so help with ease of operation

[@sixeight6]

@@nitomeanboyGBODY thanks I'm trying to figure out what would be the best way to go. Is my first swap

[@CarsCatAliens]

Gonna get it dyno tuned ? As you know, it's well worth it!

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Oh absolutely!

[@matthewkingsmore8824]

That power steering line is super close to the headers...hopefully it doesnt cause you any grief when they turn red hot while in boost

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

I get ya.. it’s not the actual line.. it’s basically acting as a spout to fill if needed.. but the angle doesn’t do justice.. it’s plenty far from it and secured.. it should be fine

[@ProudlyNobody]

Dope. Wheres your compression at (round about)!?

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Thanks .. 9.4:1

[@ProudlyNobody]

@@nitomeanboyGBODY similar boat, waiting onna machine shop, my pistons are at the same compression.. was curious what the run would be like. Inspiration and Motivation. Thank you.

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

@@ProudlyNobody I know the feeling. Keep doin everything u can.. little by little you’ll be there 💪🏼

[@joehatten9171]

Like that turbo manifold....u just flip around LT headers?

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Thank you.. no they’re just generic ebay forward facing turbo headers

[@joehatten9171]

@@nitomeanboyGBODY gotcha

[@Benny-is5be]

Have the link for the headers

[@montecarlo6.0turbo]

I had to put new gm censors in my 6.0 kept saying syncing stall

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Yep.. they definitely have far less issues with real deal gm sensors

[@CarsCatAliens]

Look to motion raceworks for charge tube connector.

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

I have one from vibrant.. it’s already set up.. buddy just have to reweld the piping bcuz the tbss intake has an upward throttle opening compared to the stock truck intake

[@CarsCatAliens]

@@nitomeanboyGBODY niiiiice ! How long it take to build ?

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

@@CarsCatAliens truthfully it took me about 2 years to build the car.. mainly bcuz I built a motor previously to this one but never installed it

[@xCodys]

Whats up wit the fuel pressure?

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

The actual pressure is about 40 psi… what ur seein on the display is the reading from the low dollar sensor that is not scaled in the system yet so it’s reading lower than it actually is

[@Roadkingcardogjunky82]

It needs tune it just has a tune to get the car run for to be tune hp tuner can do it on the internet 😊

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Yes I know.. I’m making a new appointment with my tuner.. missed the first one because of some upcoming issues

[@drlifestyle1817]

What size turbos

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

Gt45s

[@justinramirez4658]

Spark wires look really close to headers or is that just me?

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

No they have plenty space. Probably just bad camera angle. I purposely spaced the coil brackets up close to the rails to give the wires no room for error

[@justinramirez4658]

What headers did you use? Mind posting the link?

[@nitomeanboyGBODY]

@@justinramirez4658 I don’t have a link unfortunately. I purchased them from fb marketplace a few years back. But they basically came from eBay from what I remember being told. They’re just a basic up and over forwards
