83 Stepside supercharged road fighter project

[454Man]

My trucks my daily... I started a build thread...355 ,9:5 comp flat tops w/valve reliefs, tbi heads (may go vortec, headers, comp cams 260H... Notin big
Now my next build is a Buick skylark... Twin turbo
What's under the hood??? If you have to ask maybe we shouldn't race...

All done. I may end up swapping to 32lbs injectors because I need more fuel and may be maing out these injectors even out of the boost range. Got some 32s lying in the truck so I can swap them out sometime soon. For the rest it drives fine, and smooth. Love the OD, it does an easy 80mph @ 2500 or so rpm.

Put a moroso crank case evac system on it to keep the yucky filth out of the intake



new washer reservoir, custom expansion tank & acoompanying overflow for the rad



WBO2, chose this style because the gauge most closely matches the stock ones.  (ignore dust)


interior all back together


Done





Glad to be driving in it again... it really is one of the must fun cars to drive... it's rattle free, lots of room and now plenty of oomph.

I'm driving the truck again.  Took a bunch more tinkering and eliminating small problems.  Have the efi pretty much dialed in.  Tcc working after some rewiring and messing with the tune.  It's running strong.  Made a shirt walkaround vid.

Going to put a posi in the rear.  Im one wheel peeling at 80mph when going wot and off the line traction is nill.  May go to 19 inch wheels and modern tires.  Have adapters but nay just build fronts for 1le hubs and using c6z06 brakes and put a 9 bokt f body axle in the rear with tq arm setup and coil overs.  For now I'll just run the snot out of it.

I just read this whole thread as well. All I can say is WOW! That is one nice ride! We have a word for a guy like you where I come from. That word is sneaky. You area very sneaky guy to try and hide that supercharger by painting it black. I like your style though!
