Exploring Diverse LS Turbo Builds

that is your tahoe here uh yeah it is yeah it is we had a matter of fact that i was just putting uh some fresh seals in the ring and pinion it's on the lift out there right now we just took the pinion back in it so we can walk back there and have a look at that if you want to yeah let's go check that thing out a nice desk ornament here what's going on with this thing yeah this is a this is uh mike spiva's rodeo project that he's putting a six liter uh ls3 in um just for driving no turbo or nothing just just because this is a bone stock motor just like hey let's it's going to be plenty it's plenty of motor i just always wanted to do one so it's going to be kind of finishing that but uh that's busto motor right there so this is a 2002 chevrolet tahoe that i bought new in 2002 uh put 310 something thousand miles on it driving my family around summer camps camping road trips pulling motorhomes to california and back and meteor crater all sorts of cool adventures in this truck and i thought you know what instead of getting rid of it uh why don't we like just keep it and make a dragon out of it i like that sounds ridiculous on the surface but it's been a lot of fun so this has a prototype turbocharger uh on it this is a prototype of a turbocharger i'm working on uh that'll be a part of our uh part of our black friday sales as a matter of fact um a uh 75 millimeter uh 82 millimeter 75 inducer on the compressor and 87 by 82 millimeter uh turbine wheel really i think it's gonna be a great turbo for uh the next step kind of past what you're about to do with yours so uh so when you'd run your circuit on your 7875 and 4l60 and explode all that stuff and decide to put a cam in and change the 480 the the turbo that you're going to change to after that the next one in the line would be the 75 82 turbo charger this particular engine is a 2010 ly6 that i changed the crank ring on so that it can be compatible with and run hp tuners on the 2002 year models with a 24 tooth ring on it with some cp stock diameter pistons in it uh just honed it a little bit to get some ring gap that i wanted stock rods some arp hardware some cadillac ctsb head gaskets uh supported uh where the rectangle heads that uh that were on that ly6 and put it together with a comp cam that's right at about 225 and 235 duration and about 6 15 and about 620 lifts on the uh at the mouth what uh what's the reasoning for the single plane and the elbow for an intake i like the way they look well that's all that…
