Budget Supercharged Vortec from CarCraft

[RyanR]

So I been up since 4am, drinking coffee for no earthly reason and since I've kinda been rethinking the LS build and keeping it old school since I'll have the ability to do EVERYTHING myself and not have to depend on no one, which I love cause builders and turners these days are getting pretty darn sorry.... Anyhow its a good read, hope it isn't a repost.

sound like a good deal expeshally because we already have the heads

wouldn't going the FAST route allow more mpg and tenability for about the same money since we have the heads like said before?

I was actually looking at that exact article a couple of months ago. I plan on doing a "junkyard" twin turbo build soon. I'm shooting for 450HP under $5000.

only 5 pounds of boost? overall not a bad article though.

Most likely that's all the 142 will put out on stock pulleys.... but yea very conservative lol
