I would but craigslist adds expire... one of my buddies bought one for 700 bucks and ditched the whipple tronics junk (their piggy back computer and extra injector for extra fuel) and bought a set of injectors and it was good to go, made mid 500s to the ground in a 04 z71 on a 5.3... just dont see many running the whipple blowers.. Hopefully the new lt engines coming out will make the ls engines price plummet and not be priced the same as gold lol. I built a motor that made in the 500 fwhp range for 2500 bucks including the price of a low miles 6l, using alot of good parts. The other day i missed a deal on a ls6 for 500 bucks with 50k on it just needed alittle head work due to a warped valve.

All im trying to say is you dont have to spend a fortune to build a ls motor that makes good power if you shop right parts are everywhere

Looks like Im going with a L33 Aluminum 5.3 Bout to tear it down and have it checked out, will be about 60 lbs lighter than an iron block and with cam/tune should make 400hp easy....

 

[hammerdownlj]

**** I want one!

 

[bluzuk80]

Got some work done and a few parts come in. November is gone so its time for a shave with the 13 bolt UCF cover and went ahead and got their pinion guard also. Arms showed up from WOD. More parts coming from Ruff Stuff. Shop is busier than normal this time of year and with the holidays time is hard to find to work on it.

[bluzuk80]

Done a little work this weekend. Axles are painted, well besides link tabs. Will paint them when i have buggy tore down for powder coat. Used several coats of Rustoleum Hammered paint, really happy with how it turned out. Painted and installed the Crane arms too.

It would take the purchase of the white house to hit your wallet hard!

[LaMedic]

Looking forward to following this. Any updates?

 

[bluzuk80]

Ive been getting parts in everyday. Still waiting on motor to get back from builders. Its getting a full rebuild with a few extras. Ive got a Cam Motion 212/218 cam and ZO6 valvesprings waiting on it. Also have an LS1 intake and throttlebody, Trailblazer SS injectors. Scored a deal on some lightly used ceramic coated shorty headers. Should make a reliable 400hp. Just picked up a 2200 stall converter and a used PSC P-pump, pulley and resevoir.

 

[bluzuk80]

Wide Open Design hooked me up with there Griffin dual pass radiator and fan combo. Same setup goin on BJs WOF buggy. Feel like a straight baller now :tc Classic City Offroad gave me a hell of a deal on some Corbeau Ultra SS seats and 5 point three in wide harnesses. Got the winch plade burned in.

 

[bluzuk80]

Steering wheel and quick release came in. Poly Performance had this package on sale :dblthumb: 20in led bars tacked in place. Thanks Bumpers

Alright Alright....Been working on it and receiving parts constantly. We just found out that we are having a second child and been looking at houses closer to the shop so that has slowed me down a good bit. Shop has been extremely busy and were shorthanded. Life is getting in the way of buggy building and fun again. Griffin radiator is mounted, seats are in. Still waiting on engine to be assembled. The AN thermostat housing and weld in An fitting for water pump came from WOD also. Makes it alot cleaner and easier to plumb it up. Them blue ZO6 valve springs look blinging on the rebuilt ported LS6 heads. Heres some pics on what i got going on.

 

[bluzuk80]

More pics Cant wait to get the LS sitting in the chassis. Engine pic is before machine work. Cam come from Cammotion. Duration is 212'/218', .561"/.561", 112'+4'; Idle to 5,200 RPM. Should lope a lil and make good power. WOD hoked me up with a Mast Motorsorts oil pan. A good bit shorter and im sure stronger than truck pan.
