83 Wagon LS turbo

[Anonymous]

Going to try and add one picture of my current project, hope this works!
It has truck manifolds flipped going to a single turbo.

What AC compressor and bracket are you using?

 

[Anonymous]

The AC pump is a Sanderson for a Vintage air system, the drive is a Wegner system I use on many cars.

I have more pictures I will try and post, but I am struggling!

I think I am figuring this out! One of the pictures is of gaskets I had made for the truck manifold at the three bolt flange, I normally keep these in stock. Check out my site if you get a chance, it is still under construction so check back later.

Nice setup there.

What supercharger is that on the LSx on your website?

 

[Anonymous]

The supercharger is made by Harrop in Australia for a Monaro application. It uses Eaton 2300 4 lobe rotors and gears in a case made by Harrop. I have worked with Wegner performance to shorten the front drive and adapt it for older cars. The engine shown is destined for a 62 Impala daily driver type car. It will make 700ftlbs+ and over 650hp at the flywheel. The first engine I built using this supercharger made 700ft lbs at 2500rpm, peaking at 770ftlbs at 4200rpm.

Cool, thanks for the info.

I might have to call you to discuss supercharger options for my 6.0.

specs on the motor??

The engine in the picture is 4.010 bore with stock stroke. It has Wiseco forged pistons and Callies rods on the stock stroke crank. The only odd thing is I added piston oilers to keep the piston cooler to help with higher power on pump fuel. It also lets me run the pistons tighter for a quieter engine. The heads are CNC ported L92 units with inconel ex valves. Cam is alot like a stock Z06, smooth idle, wide overlap with a touch more ex duration than a Z06.
