i got 01' gm lq4 block with 5k mile on it, putting it in a 69 camaro along with the turbo system, how much power can i safely get out of this forced induction set up, planning doing a twin set up what size of turbo should i use. thank a lot for any susgestion.

 

with valve springs and some good fuel or meth, over 600rwhp.

there is little point in doing twins if your sticking with a stock 6.0 unless you just want the look of twins. a single t76 works nicely on a 6.0. something a little smaller might be better if you have a stick.

 

You could ask this question over at tech too. There are some guys with this setup in their cars. I assume you'll at least be putting a cam in it right?

 

the 6.0l will bolt to either 200r4 or muncie m22(already in the car) so 600hp is my goal, what's cam should i use, and what's the trans that you guy would rather go with, the car will be driven on highway.

 

parish8 would you perfer the cmotorsports or the sts kit? stock lq4

 

if your looking for max hp you can't beat the cmotorsports set up but i dont think they are selling it. the livernois kit is about the same and you can buy one of those.

 

Cause my truck is a daliy driver and heard about water getting suck up with the rear mount kits.

 

that is'nt much of an issue unless you drive thru deep water.

i do think the front mount will give you boost sooner and carry the power longer.

 

I agree except that sucking up water can happen fairly easy if the rains are hard enough and you are boosting high enough. I did it and crushed a ring gap on my 2nd motor. Still ran the 12.3 on the engine knocking like a SOB. Hahaha

 

yeah, thats my only problem with the sts. I live up in the hills and drive in the snow sometimes. I want to keep my motor in whole. Dont want to get a 408 now lol.
