Wow, some nice progress coming along on those projects. I'm still itching to dig into mine, but for the time being the truck is going to have to make some runs while it's together in one piece and while I finish collecting parts. Hopefully it warms up too, it freaking snowed today after the weather started to look promising over the past few weeks. I don't like wrenching until my environment is at least 50*

Man, there are some really nice trucks.

I have a 1993 S10 with a 5.3L/4L65e that I built last year. I would like to add some boost to it but space is pretty tight so I'm thinking rear mount for ease of fabrication. I might start collecting parts and do it next year.

Here's the sled I boosted last year, first turbo project

Jonce - What part of MN are you in?? The sled looks badass!

I live NW of the cities in Monticello. I work down in Brooklyn Park.

Thanks for the comment on the sled. The sled was the loudest sled I've ever heard - actually gave me a headache riding it. I sold the sled and turbo kit, riding a new stock sled again. I find that I can spend more time enjoying sledding with a stock sled. Funny how that works.

That's where I wedged in my s400. Shoulda mocked it up with a filter in hindsight.

Is the s400 the biggest turbo you can fit without hacking the inner fenders?

Sweet truck. I love the performance with no intercooler.

Here are some pictures of the setup I slapped together for my mud truck.   I found a hx-50 at the scrap yard for $5 and put it together with all used crap that was setting around.  I built logs from old truck headers & 2.5" exhaust pipe.  I bought an ebay BOV and wastegate.  I fought carb issues forever and when I finally got it running right, it spun the center 3 mains.  So, the turbo kit is in the attic and the truck is off in the woods.  I am sick of looking at it!!

Very nice !    Looks like 8s will be NO PROBLEM .   

I think I asked you this already , but what does your truck weigh ?

[Mattsv8_03]

[boooost383]

anyone know wher i can get some bolt on turbo(single) manifolds? i got a 95 s10 and a 383 2nd gen lt1

[slammed98gmc]

there is a group purchase on sbc headers going on in the group purchase section. Like most other s10 stuff, your left to build you own stuff.
