I'm building a twin turbo silverado Z71 and with the helpful info from another member I decided to create a build thread for my silverado on here. This is how its going so far.

hell ya man should be a fun project. when i saw you on ls1tech i knew you had to share this over here

Thanks for the onfo on the other site. I'm hoping to have her finished up by the end of may or the beginning of June. The only parts I need are Fast fuel rails, BOV, and all the piping.

Nice!

I just went thru very similiar work, just didnt take many pics LOL, my hands were always too greasy!

thank you. i washed my hands like a million times. everything on your truck is just about the same as mine. the cam I installed was a 229/229 560/560 113 lsa. what kind of power are you making? also what fuel system are you running?

Thanks,

I am running 60# Deatsch werks direct fit injectors. I still need to upgrade my stock fuel pump.

I actually havent driven my truck yet, just finished the motor swap this week and am waiting on my retuned PCM . Hopefully tomorrow,

Cant start the truck with the 5.3 tune, it was set for stock injectors, and the 60's will flood her quick so im just gonna wait.

Im hoping for around 380-400 RWHP or so ?? Not sure, Cant wait to drive it!

Then i have a TVS 1900 to put on !

Your build is going to be awesome!

BTW , what is your new motor ? 5.3 ??

Hey Steven I moved your thread to the "Projects" section! Lookin' good :thumb:

stock fuel rails and regulator?

my new motor is a 6.0 with a cam, stock 317 heads, stock bottom end with arp rod and head bolts, twin 57's, areomotive fuel pressure regulator, fast rails, fast 60's, custom stainless steel tubing fuel lines 1/2" feed and 3/8" return, looking to run 13 pounds.

Damn , you got the fuel system! What pump you running?

Yes, i have the stock reg. and rails , not for long, i'll need new ones when i throw the blower on.

You custom making your hot/ cold pipes ??
