I just purchased an engine from a GTO w/T56 for my '69 Camaro. I will be installing a twin turbo kit. Here is my question: I'm looking for information on custom cam, heads, intake, and best compression to use. At least links to find this information and or parts. I've already made up my mind on turbos... I'm looking for as much information up front, so that my car is setup and done correctly the first time.

 

What are your power goals? And it would seem from your post that you have the funding for this project, but what would you like your budget to be?

 

idk much about wats best for lsx cars or fi but look on ls1tech they have alot of info on these types of builds

 

Get the LS1 or LS2 into the car first and get that set up all cleaned up first. Once its in the car or at least mounted so you have an idea of wear every thing sits. It can be done but you are looking at a lot of custom work and fab time to make it right.

LS1 should be good on stock bottom for a over 500-550 at the wheels LS2 should be good almost too 600 with going into the bottom.

 

Ok, I picked up an '04 LS1 & T56 out of a GTO... only 14k very clean, and complete. I also received my twin turbo kit I bought. I will be tearing down the engine for low compression pistons, rods, new cam, lifters, rockers, and some head work, and a larger intake. This will all be mounted in a new custom sub frame for this setup, currently installing a quadra link rear suspension, and mini tub kit from DSE.


robmnrd: I really haven't set a budget. I know what I want, research it and continue to search until I find the best deal.
