Yeah I believe that. Same thing happened on our '68 Camaro. Had to cut it to fit. My buddy brought his '06 LBZ over and we checked the clearance on his hood and everything looks cherry so that'll be the route ill go
Good stuff! Its surprising how much hieght we have even stock
.
Glad its gonna work out without to much cost
Oh believe me i agree with what your saying but the added fuel is because im going with bigger cam and more air. Go big or go home right? Should be dippin the 9s this winter:woott:
I dont like running alot of pulse or pressure, i like to stay pretty conservative with the tuning and still haul azzzz
Good to know... But I have never been scared to take the cutoff wheel to the old girl lol.
That is a lil contradicticing lol So why do you say u ran out of fuel? A 2900pw with 150 overs is not conservitive by any means
Keeping the stock one for now. The last time I pressure checked it, it held over 60psi. For now at least haha. Once the engine gets broken in and all the little adjustments are done then I'll probably look into getting an intercooler. It's an LMM turbo kit and if I had an LMM intercooler the boots would line up perfectly though. Anyone have any insight on if an LMM intercooler is bolt on in an LB7?
Thanks guys! It'll be cruising around northern Colorado with no hood on it for a while
:rofl: I took most of yesterday to round up oil lines, fittings, exhaust pipe, and other small misc parts that you never think about till the last minute. Planning on pulling an all-nighter tonight. Was just informed Exergy sent my injectors out today so hopefully early next week I'll get her up and running!
To me 3300us is maxxed out but what do i know. Look at the video... do you see any fuel left to burn?
Why does it even matter? Im just doing my thing and im plenty happy :thumb: 9s on my Allison very soon and ill drive it to Walmart to get some groceries.

My stock IC lasted one run and blew a hole in it. Be careful.
Excited for you to get your truck running! Down time sucks! Fresh bad ass build FTW!
Thanks for the offer delong. But frankly I'm done until the injectors and boots show! Just cleaning and painting piddly shit right now. Cab is bolted down, wiring is done, fuel/oil/exhaust is done... Been sitting in the cab listening to music and making engine noises lol
Did you ever use the torque plate when you had the blocked honed or did you decide that it was not needed?
Your engine looks really good Dustin. :thumb:
Really looking forward to hearing how it performs :woott:

Right, JD haha. My dyslexia kicked in. I dynoed my Caddy when he had that big open house at his shop a few weekends back.
And I ended up not using a torque plate for the hone. I did a lot of research on it and based my decision off that. We'll see if I regret it or not. I knew if I did do a torque plate hone it probably would have had to get new pistons and I've already burned too much money as is on this damn thing.
