A little more progress on the "not so junkyard" 5.3. Checking some ring gaps and filling those bores up! Ohhh those stock rods are glorious......... #ls #enginebuild #twinturbo #junkyard #ls #twinturbo #enginebuild #junkyard
Little fire to "start" the day off right. Replacing the starting ring on the C20 flywheel. #badpuns #torch #littletinktink #torch #badpuns #littletinktink

Pretty happy with these @morosoperformance valve cover gaskets. Just the ticket for the Ford racing Covers. One step closer to the dyno.

Our favorite C20 is back for some upgrades. After the break in period the clutch appears to be the weak point. Not for long! #torque #burnt #upgrade #performance #chevrolet #torque #chevrolet #performance #burnt #upgrade

This Aluminum Small block Ford is here to get some new intake gaskets. Another common water passage failure. Repair and dyno coverage to follow. #waterworks #signedsealeddelivered #engine #dontblowagasket #engine #waterworks #dontblowagasket #signedsealeddelivered
Well the engine dyno was a bust. It worked but the mystery engine we used was junk and would hardly run. So heres some twin turbin burban footage instead. #twinturbos #fordpower #powerbythehour #braap #twinturbos #braap #powerbythehour #fordpower
Thanks for the shout out @tamsin59 and thanks to @theautoshoppe for getting me involved. Honored to be a part of it. Thanks again. #hotrod #custom #fabrication #instafamous #chassis #hotrodtruck #hotrod #custom #instafamous #chassis #fabrication #hotrodtruck

Spent a little time installing some cam bearings and then the crank tonight on the "junkyard " LS. Spins nice even with the syrupy assembly lube. #clevite #motors #ls #motors #ls #clevite

Ive read the articles and watched the YouTube videos and I still couldnt let this be a true junkyard build. So this 5.3 "junkyard build" will have hp bearings wiseco pistons BTR cam and springs and ARP head studs. Close enough right? #lsswap #twinturbo #mahle #lstheworld #boosted #ebay #lstheworld #ebay #boosted #twinturbo #mahle #lsswap

Sometimes I like to make lamps out of eBay and Amazon parts. This happened today. Only piece I had to make was the aluminum collar to adapt the shade.
Im going to miss this one. 74 C20 now equipped with a 730 Horsepower 572 Crate ZF 650 6 speed manual. FiTech injected and stopped by a disc conversion and Hydroboost. Nice new wheels and center caps painted by @theautoshoppe. See you on the road old girl! #farmtruck #camperspecial #sleeper #bigblock #heavychevy #fitech #bigblock #fitech #heavychevy #camperspecial #sleeper #farmtruck

Nice to get out of the shop and not be at a car show. Found this gem in Maine during my thanksgiving trip.

With a little luck we might just make our first pull with the engine dyno tomorrow. Time to go dream about it tonight. #insomnia #dyno #loudnoises #smilespergallon #modmotor #science #smilespergallon #science #modmotor #insomnia #dyno #loudnoises
