    New to forum TURBO 6.0 build

    Im going to be doing a 6.0 turbo swap into my car. I have a few pictures of the build so far and I hope to have it done in the next month or so if everything goes well. Any advice along the way always helps because I'm new to all this GM stuff ;-)

    It started out as this about 4 years ago




    Then this is how I first "finished" it.





    Here is my first power adder.. I didnt like the lazy centri blower so I took it off



    So I woke up and did this..



    I blew a ring land in the stock 5.0 and instead of putting another weak 5.0 back in the car.. you guessed it 6.0. Hopefully I dont run into to many purists Here are some pictures of the progress so far.


    Found a 35k mile 2003 LQ4









    I picked up a t56 out of a GTO today

    Thanks for looking!

    Man that is a lot of work so far but it will be worth it. Looks like it was worth it with the 5.0, but the 6.0 will be that much better.

    yes sir yes sir. Your an alright ford guy in my book.

    My buddy wants to build one of those with a 406. I am working on converting him to gen 3 or 4.

    right the hell on, looks wise the fox body aint my favorite, but they sure are a great go-fast platform! turbo 6.0 should be wicked in that.


    if you dont mind me asking, how much did you get the lq4 for and did it come with the accessories/wiring/computer?
