Swiggles is going turbo!!!

Well as some of you may know I'm going turbo . I was able to trader for most of the parts and will end making a little money when sell the rest. I pieced it together rather quickly, and u have just about everything for the install ready to go. Jason is polishing my l26 intake, and yesturday he drop off my 91k l36 from an fbody. I will end up selling the fbody intake, was going to use but have a different plan now, shh. More will be added as things get put together. Turbo, cam, and tb will be here tomorrow. Motor might end up get an l36 uim while I wait for the l26 polishing to be finished.


So the motor will be:


- Comp Turbo CT4 6764 T3 Turbo, 3" Vband.
- Custom z7 cross over
- Custom Stattama upper downpipe 3"
*crossover and downpipe were welded by zzp.
- polished l26 uim
- vacuum block with an lines
- hv3 insert
- Z7 intercooler pipes
- Frozenboost A2A Intercooler 31"x12"X3" 2.5" inlet/outlet
- 3" Catless Vband downpipe, brand new flex piece
- 3" resonator pipe, reduces to 2.5" were it connects to the Y pipe
- Stattama bov
- Tial wastegate MSV vband 38mm (extra wastegate springs will be include, 14.5psi springs are in there now)
- ported l67 tb with fixed AFC
- dual valve catch can
- stage 3 zzp l67 heads with 130# springs
- comp cam 1.6 roller rockers
- Stattama stage 2 cam
- double rollmaster
- ls7 lifters
- comp cam stock size pushrods
- Mls head gaskets .056
- PRJ Rails Black. Setup for an fuel lines
- 60lbs Siemens Injectors
- Racetronics fuel pump


Heres my big update. Progress has been really slow, work picked up for a few weeks and i had to send out all of exhaust stuff to zzp for them to make my custom 3" upper turbo downpipe. They ran into a few snags and had fix and change my cross over around. But I'm glad I went with them because things would not have fit right when went to install if they hadnt got the parts for the downpipe. Those parts will all be here tomorrow, some other misc stuff will be here beginning of next week, and I still have to meet up with Max for the torque converter before I can put the motor back in.


I decided to go with 1.6 roller rockers since Max was selling the set i wanted and i already had someone who wanted the 1.7s so I didn't have to pay anything for them.


Just about everything on the car will AN lines, man those add up quick :roll: . but it will be worth it once its all put together.


Polishing on the UIM looks great so far but i still need to get it soda blaster which i should have done from the start and saved Jason's arms and sanity.


So on to some picks...


What came out, traded the GenV and TOGs for the turbo and ST2 cam.

Putting this block in, 91K from a '97 Camaro. I will probably be selling the intake.

Cleaning the block didnt take much. Jason did all the work so it was a breeze for me :lol: .

You can even see the arrow on the pistons, damn this motor was clean.

Got the 1.6 rockers in the mail today, second time I've bought them from Max lol.

To top off the heads.

AN fittings on the back of the UIM for the vacuum block feed.

OOO shiny. The L67 adapter is on upside down so i can use the stock l26 EVAP location. I'm hoping this will work.

Ported L67 TB.

Got some nice bolts for the sensors.

OOO shiny turbo

And to protect it all and let that extra heat out. Thanks Jason's dad!! Its painted now, but I'm waiting till it goes on for those pics.

As she sleeps at the moment.

You're putting the wbody pan on right?

Lol ya it has the aluminum oil pan to go with my aluminum subframe

Lol ok

Is that a caravan in the garage?

if you decide to ditch the stock maf and go LT1, you can weld up the hole in the stock throttle body. get a 3/8 pipe tap and drill the top of the L26 and get a 96 corvette IAT sensor and place it there. you can also weld close the L26 map sensor hole and run 2 breaters, one on each valve cover and you wont get oil all over the place. this is how my car is set up.

thats not a caravan thats a 93-96 fleetwood, my pops has one i know that front end anywhere

Lol well you are both close, its my hearse, family owns a funeral home. It's a 96 Cadillac fleetwood hearse.

I was thinking about going with the lt1 and for the maf block off plate but I also have an afc so I'm going to stick with stock maf and afc for now.

I'm going to use the map sensor for the catch can, I plugged the bottom of lim there and opened up the hole a little more. I really hate the fact that I have to run a breather at all but I got one that's chrome from advanced auto so hopefully I won't have oil everywhere

Turbo 3800 in the hearse?

Lol nope lt1 with a head gasket leak. Jason is putting on a set of aluminum heads when he gets back from PA.

Some nice lookin parts there............. hope you make 400 whp pretty easily. I'm pretty sure your gonna want the stock rockers in there with that st2 cam and who made the hood?

Brian.. when I was thinking about putting my motor into a camaro/firebird, I heard some things about the starter being on the wrong side. Flip that baby over and check that the holes are in the right place. If not..uh..wait for Jason.

Max was laughing about the rockers the other night.

Jason isn't polishing your UIM. We all know that. A wise man..knows when to give up.

On the throttle body adapter. Flip it back over. I can toss you pics of my setup both gen V and L26, running the adapter, stock L67 TB. L67 TB has no interference issues.

please get rid of those stupid rockers... It will be impossible to keep valve float under control with those tanks.

The rockers are staying end of story and I don't want to hear about them again. If I run into problems I'll fix it. This is just going to be my daily driver, I'm not trying to go crazy with lift and horsepower this time. They are stage 3 heads with 130# springs with barely any miles on them so I should be fine for a while.

Bill so your saying my starter might end up on the wrong side?

Did you buy this cam from tyler?

I'm saying, I think I heard the starter was on the passengerside in an F Body. You should roll that puppy over and double check that the starter holes are on the correct side. Otherwise you'll need to work on that.

Yes the cam and turbo came from Tyler and he got my headers and gen V

Scared now, aren't ya

That cam is sure making the rounds lol I used to have it.

Lol most of my parts are used sluts, why should the cam be any different.

Yes bill you did scare me, I went out and check and the starter is on the right side



Flip the tb adapter over while I was out there too, and there's just enough clearance.

told ya so
