LQ9 Install

[1chance]

Glad to see your on it again! Where did you get the kit to relocate the battery to the trunk?

Project is looking great. The motor mounts are pretty awesome. Would it be possible to clear the intake if the motor was mounted lower in the chassis?

So, is it kind of a pain to get these v8's into these cars? You cant buy motor mounts from someone that already produces these? What about wirng, and everything. Does it all hook up just like the 6 cylinder does, or do you have to do a lot of replumbing of lines and what not?

Also, these engines can really handle that much power stock? Does it take much work to get these engines over the 1000 mark?

to install the LS motor into a Gbody ==== truck pan clears however the H3 oil pan fits better for ground clearance

for motor mounts you use SBC motormounts and adapter plates on the block. Its that simple


as for strenght of these motors it comes down to whos doing the tune. ive seen 700 rwhp on 93 octane alone from a 4.8


twin 75s is to much for a 6.0. a single 75mm turbo is plenty

Yeah I tried to get the motor as low as possible so the hood wouln't touch. I will have to machine the tab off the front of the manifold an it sholudn't touch at all. The relocate kit is all summit stuff. The master cut off and rod is all moroso stuff.
