Don't need a whole lot in the way of internal tweaking to support boost on an LS. Friends with this guy. Wrecking yard 5.3. Took the block apart to loosen the factory rings. Reused the "one use" rod bolts. ARP head studs. Think he said he has a BTR turbo cam. Stock 243 heads with BTR springs...

Just wondering...have you checked to see if the 400 will fit up in the tunnel yet? Our car is setup for a 4l80e...took a ton of cutting to get it in the car...

Bit curious about something....in particular the folks who spew their hatred of folks that do this type of stuff.....how many of you are of the "don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all" crew? Just wondering.... Reason I am curious is because if I went into a thread and was...

Haven't done a parts list but...unported ls3 heads flow 300CFM, out of the box. https://m.summitracing.com/parts/nal-12629063 For a price of $1030. Can use factory rockers for everything but the over the top builds. How much will it cost to get a set of SBM heads to flow that? Pick up a brand...

And if you don't have the $$ to spend on a Mopar motor but can afford an LS due to circumstances beyond your control? I bought our Dart when I was still employed. Unfortunately life changed. My wife got hurt at the USPS. The USPS changed their policy towards injured employees. Went from we will...

Just goes to show how disrespectful many members of this site truly are....

Not awe inspiring.....neither is using a motor that was in how ever many a-bodies were built. Real thrilling to see 4 Darts, all with small blocks...with different valve covers...to each his own.

Sorta my point...the chest thumpers...on both sides...muck these threads up. Sorta like a child throwing a tantrum because they don't like something...Even "back in the day" I did my best to refrain from the Ford vs Chevy vs Slowpar crap...each has their strong points...and weak ones. Pretty...

I know they did. Just have 0 patience for the chest thumping faithful. If I can figure out how to build a web site, I use Ipage for an email server, I may go that route. To me it is extremely disrespectful to muck up some ones build thread just because they don't like it. I don't like the odd...

This IS the very reason I will not be,doing a build thread on my car. Damn shame folks just can't say, to themselves, not my idea of a good time...and move on...

Resting...

No worries Sir...Last few years have been a nightmare. Gophers took out the power to the well. 150' of rock infested digging. Injectors went out on the truck.By the time I was done with the injectors, lines, lift pump, EFI Live...was right at 4k. Doubt I will get anyplace with it soon. Doc is...

Like putting together a motor that hundreds of thousands of Slowpars came with is exciting. Local guy that will be doing the tuning...he used to work down there in Southern Commiefornia, place called Westtech. He was putting the final touches on a Trailblazer. 408, 12:2.1, aftermarket...

Yeah.....well......can't think of a single thing to say....:rofl:

318? My sh?tbox had a /. Fixed income & falling apart physically makes things a bit of a challenge...

I have an LS that will be going into our 69 Dart. Progress will be slow...tossing around the idea of a build thread but when it turns ugly that will be the end of it. Notice I said when, not if.

Not rush....thanks...

Have a favor to ask....can you post a picture of the total engine bay? Like to see what kind of distance you have from the front of the heads to the inner fenders and radiator support...long story..,Thanks...

Really would like to run drive by wire...and have cruise control...

Place I picked up the motor from included the ECU, complete harness, underwood fuse box (that's going away) and the throttle body. Has the alternator and ps pump on it. Will be visiting a local shop that does tuning before I decide if I keep the factory stuff. Would like to keep the factory...

You do know about Kevin? He is a member here...don't know if he is on much anymore....Kevin did LS swaps for a living for a decade or so. I have picked his brain more than once. If you would be interested in talking with him I can ask about giving get you his cell #.

Someplace out in the train wreck of a garage I have an alternator only mount that I stumbled onto. Very well may just use that...for years I drove a little Ford Ranger with manual steering...miss that feeling...have to see how bad my shoulder gets by the time I get to it. What did you do for an...

You are using the truck pan? Just curious...why the "f" body accessory drive? I am planning on using the trucks...very well may get a power rack. I got an LQ4 with a spun bearing. If the crank is wasted will be getting stroked. What are you plans for a cooling system? How are you going to...

Only 1 hater comment so far? Damn.... I have an LQ4/4l80e that will be going into my 69 Dart. Have a HDK as well. Emailed Denny about motor mounts...will be waiting..

I think a repaint, some color/design would look cool if it could be done where it was not real bright...if that makes sense....

Clean looking car, where did you find it?

Last the OP & I chatted he was busy trying to put his life together....doesn't surprise me that the car has become low/no priority..

More than one....surprised no one has given me any crap over the email address in my signature line....

View from the inside of the mashed tail light area of the 1/4.... The top of the left door had a good sized dent from folks throwing a shoulder into the door to get it to open thanks to the sagging door hinges and the cracked door pin. EZ fixed the area behind the door pins, there is now...

Just going to post some random photos of the body work stage. While the car had minimal rust, more on THIS later, it did have some troubles. It had apparently been tapped on the left rear quarter, in the tail light area. Took EZ quite a while to get it resolved. Lots of heat/hammer &...
