NNBS 07 RCSB - Project Pushing the Envelope!
2 Attachment(s)
Sold my 04 GTO project about a year and a half ago,bought an 06 Z06,and love it!
But i've been wanting to do a LS turbo project bad!I've even been gathering some turbo parts. So i've been looking for a solid beater 99+ RCSB 2WD for a number of months,and this is what i've come up with...07 4.8,G80 3.23,PL 115k miles,rougher in real life than in the pics,this was used as a truck LOL.($5300) PLAN: Drop it 4/7",good cam/springs,Single MasterPower T76 (undecided on Hot/Cold side at this point)and supporting mods and some Bogarts GOAL:Just looking to have a pile of fun pushing the limits of the 4.8 longblock and 4L65E,since it's not going to be a DD gonna crank the boost on race fuel.We do have a local 1/2 mile event that i may aim for. I do have an LS6 block/crank,LS3 rods and Diamond pistons in the garage for back-up. Budget:keep it to a min. so the old lady doesn't catch on! So no real rush,but going to try to keep progress steady-I'll post pics as i go Dom |
Updated:cheers:

Nice truck. Should be a fun project for sure.

Nice, but sounds like the 4l60 isnt long for this world!
I'm doing a similar build on a 05 4.8, but I just wrapped up my 4l80 swap. |
...only made a bit of progress thus far:
Got a black W/T grill and bumper installed Removed all badging and wheel lip trim Bought Belltech front struts and spindles Ordered a Static flip kit Ordered rear 15x11.5 Bogart D10's,gonna figure out the fronts once suspension is installed... Bought a Procharger 3 core intercooler I have decided on the Trick Stage 4 Hotside and am waiting to talk to Rick and place the order*EDIT-Ordered!!! Also picked up some GT500 injectors to get me by for now. Stuff i had before i got the project: MP T76 Q trim 1.00 A/R DEI blanket Autometer Boost gauge NGK wideband Turbosmart in-cab manual boost controller :cheers:Dom |

Blacked out, also didn't realize the 07 bumper didn't have an opening...
