Unboxing LSXcalade's NEW Twin Turbo LSX 427! (Ready For 2,000+ HP)

What happens here

The engine is fully mocked up with the turbos, headers, and intake, revealing its 'elephant-like' appearance. The presenter explains the specific internal components: a Dart billet crankshaft, CP Carrillo rods, and CP Carrillo pistons, praising their quality and durability. They mention that the engine's original failure (bent valves) did not damage the pistons, attesting to their strength. The existing Precision turbos will be reused, and the engine will be reinstalled in the Escalade, with future videos documenting the final assembly and installation.

Goal: Showcase the fully assembled engine mockup and highlight its high-performance internals.

Tools and materials

even put anything together it looks like an elephant that's exactly what i was thinking you know why that pipe is offset but the intercooler is in the middle of the grill but this is offset why because the engine's not in the middle of the truck it's not in the middle on any of those and it's going to hurt your brain for the rest of your life when you figure that out they're offset like an inch or so because of the driveshaft front diff and all that stuff because this intercooler is dead smack in the middle of the grille in the middle of the truck the pipe is right in the middle everything is in the middle in the middle but the engine is not so when you look at it it would look stupid if the pipe went down like that so i had to make the pipe go straight down and then connect to the intercooler out of view and that's why the headers you can see even they're symmetrical like within the relative location of the engine bay but the engine is closer to the primaries on that side than that side that header ended up being way tighter because i made that one first and then i went to the other side i was like oh crap i have way less room and it's a lot harder so this piece here is a bunch of different pieces but it all kind of works together to fool the eye so now we got to go over the specs full difference is the head studs are half inch now half inch arp studs cam same camshaft basically if they were going to change it it would be so my new that it was not even worth making a new cam profile for it so it's the dart billet crankshaft cp corolla rods and pistons which are awesome i can't speak highly enough of the cp gorilla stuff when this thing ate the head it didn't the piston didn't flinch it did not do anything to it didn't care and the rock wall tested them and stuff they're fine not even worth replacing basically everybody who's involved with this engine is involved because they wanted to be and they make really good stuff brodix cp carillo dart now holly precision used to be but not anymore because they like they got bought out by some giant company and just went it's weird this would have zona rotors on it if i wanted to make the effort to make a whole new turbo kit for it i wish i
