    My 6.2 Swap into 80 Malibu

    Dude,you have a nitrous outlet puck in that thing. I just saw those. What did it cost to get it and have it installed,if you don't mind me asking? Did you have to send in your intake to them? How long did it take to get back if so? And how much plenum room does it take up? Im wondering how it...

    help with cts-v oil pan and drag link clearance

    Can you shim the mounts up to clear? I have also heard of people grinding the holes out on the solid mounst where it goes to the frame elongating the holes then welding thick washers over them to push the motor up slightly to clear things.

    torque converter recommendations?

    Not sure what your plans are for it but i have seen guys use the straight 6 trailblazer converter in these. It will supposedly stall to around 2600 or so and still has stock lockup feature. I thought about doing one in my truck,but have since found a deal on an aftermarket.

    be afraid... kind of afraid

    Sounds like a solid plan. Any idea on turbo size selection? If you can fit the truck intake without the cover on it you can smooth and paint them and make them look not terrible.The cover over the intake is usually what hits. And the truck intake is better than the ls1.

    Car craft did a story on how to build a pressurizer using a small block oil pump ,a 5 gallon bucket a drill and some A/N hose and fittings. But i have also heard of people just filling the whole motor up with oil and letting it sit for a couple hours. Think it took like 12 quarts or so. Not a...
