Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

Love the steering wheel, looks great.

Just remember if you buy one of those, they will most likely have AFM (Active Fuel Management) which turns off cylinders to conserve fuel. It does this by the lifters...so if you decicde to put in a nice rumpity cam...you will have to change out all the lifters, lifter buckets, cam sprocket, upper plate (under intake) and pushrods.
Not sure if either one of those has VVT (variable valve timing), in which you will have to change out a few more pieces like the timing cover and a couple of other small pieces if I remember correctly, to do a the bumping cam also.
Just do a little research before you buy and hollar a me if you have any questions. ;)

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

Is there a bigger factory cam (Corvette??) that will work with VVT or AFM? Should I just leave the motor stock and add the supercharger and take it as is? Is the iron block preferable over the aluminum G8 block? PM me your phone number when you get a chance, I would like to discuss this more.

The LS9 cam is a great factory cam. works well with superchargers and turbos. no lope. But it doesnt work with VVT or AFM.

I would probably do the G8 engine if it was me. Some guys really love the iron block, but its not really necessary. look at my SS..aluminum 6.2 block bored and stroked to 427 cubes and mine makes 896 flywheel horsepower ;)

You can always run the stock G8 with the supercharger for now....then later on swap out the cam and respective parts.

I hit the road at 3AM this morning and got back around 6PM, nearly 800 miles and very long day but I now have the new powerplant for the Farm truck. Feast your eyes!!!

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

Wow what a great score, you are a lucky man, did you get the computer and wiring harness with it?
Also is that one where the computer requires the cluster/information display center to work correctly?
I guess I'm just wondering whats it takes to put one of these in a c10 and work correctly.

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

So so so jealous! LOL. Great score buddy!

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

That...is...AWESOME!!

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

Awesome

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

:lol:, there was a 3 hour break in the middle.

Yes sir! It's sitting in the back of my truck, :metal:.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

I got the complete engine/tranny, all accessories, computer, electric pedal and wiring harnes. I'm not sure about the cluster. I talked to John at Speartech and he's going to build me a custom harness for it.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Holy cow, nice buy Rob!


That must have been once heck of a test drive for that '13 Camaro. :)

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

I hate you.... :D

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

I might have missed it and I am going back a few pages here but did you ever "tune" your fuel filler in the marker light? Id be interested to see how that turned out. Love your truck:metal:

Re: 68 S/C update.....

My bad.

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

Very nice!!!:metal:

I think you made the right choice!

Be sure to post every little detail so I can copy what you do ( minus the SC of course )!:lol:

I think the supercharger is supposed to be in the front...:devil:

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

:lol:, it was a blast!!

:lol:, PM sent.

Thanks and glad you found it!


:lol:, it was your thread that got me looking for this.....:devil:

No wonder I could only get 400HP out of it.....:D.


I think we need to work together on this. Here's my parts list so far:

Dirty Dingo adjustable engine mounts, CPP engine stands, CPP tubular tranny crossmember, auto high hump, Speartech harness, factory accessories, Doug Thorley big tube headers (hopefully)....

I think you will have to switch your oil pant to either an Fbody (won't work with the ECE mounts) or the Cadillac CTsV. Add as necessary.

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

WOW...sweet POWER PLANT !

Re: 68 S/C update.....
 

It sure is! :metal:

Square Peg sure would look cool with this for sure. Heck, anything would. :lol:
