Twin turbo 5.3?

Check out the turbo forum. They have a section for GM small block and ls1

Here's an older thread on a single turbo 5.3 in a 4x4. I believe there is a more detailed thread on that truck here somewhere.

Thanks for the websites. I'm slowly starting to get together what I want for the motor setup. Denmah's build really helped narrow down and answer A LOT of questions I had.

Thanks for the link. Definitely a good thread and it definitely helped me along with the previous sites mentioned.




Decided to keep the truck heads and adjust the valves and springs. I am going to keep the stock PCM and tune it, no Microsquirt on this build. 80lb injectors, stock fuel rail, 3/8ths fuel line...

Turbos: Still need to decide turbos but no rush right now

BOV: I'm going to run one 50mm BOV

Cam: will be between an LS6 or custom cam from TICK performance.

Fuel Pump/tank: I need to consider my options here on what is more cost effective/least problematic. I could use the same tank that came with the truck and install a sump and run the Walbro 400 pump OR, put in an EFI tank. Ill have to look more into that as time moves on.

Cooling: Ill have to look into more.




At this point, if you asked me what I was building this truck for I couldnt exactly think of a better reason than, "to make me smile"
