sleepers 1981 zephyr lsx/th400/turbo

The manual rack and all the supporting hardware came today. I got most of it put together today.

Im having to make my own bushings for the old struts so i can use them to roll the car around. The steering rack is nice and light. I didnt follow their instructions for the shaft. I tapped them a few threads vs a divit.

What are the details on that turbo? I've about got all my 5.3 parts rounded up. Just missing some fuel fittings, regulator and maybe an ls1 intake. I've been researching what turbo to go with now

Next turbo im getting will be a borg warner s475.

That is a cheapo gt45 from vsracing. The on3 76mm will make about the same power but has a really small turbine sidevs the gt45.

Its all in how much power you want to make. The gt45 ive seen 600ish but they are iffy quality. Ive seen big numbers out of the s400 series borgs esp once you start getting the fancy billet wheels and shit.

I've narrowed my choices to the s475r or the s480. Gotta get some guidance about the differences between the two and if I want the billet wheel or not

[Sleeper]

Alot of the guys on ls1 tech run those. If you hurry the guy from hurronspeed has a killer sale running.

Btw money no object billet wheel and race cover for sure.

I had to call flaming river on the rack. They claimed 4 turns lock to lock, but its really 3 1/2 ish. Once i got it centered i got the rest of the suspension back together for now.

Its officially a roller again. Sold the engine and trans that i pulled from it. Nor sure what i want to buy next.
