Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
hey dude...you got the hulk lookin good...Will you be painting the frame or will you guys powder coat it???

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
killer it'll be painted..
got some motor mount ls1 adaptor plates, so i was able to mock-up the mock-up engine... and with this truck i set the motor 1" further back for 2 reasons 1) is cause these control arms are beefier then stock, and i fear the headers will interfer with them on the dr. side. and 2) cause we're gonna run a f-body oil pan for ground clearance....also got the center x-member drilled out and the trailing arms out, cause all this is gonna get replaced with new ECE stuff.. here are the pics http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0154.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0160.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0161.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0162.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0167.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0168.jpg |

If you use these headers, I don't think you'll have a problem with clearance, :).

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
alright, got most all the suspension mocked-up...the rear also has the hidden receiver hitch set-up....fully dumped the lience plate 'box' is about 4.5" from the ground.....looks pretty cool IMO... with it being that low the relocation bracket from the ECE panhard bar kit wont work... it locates the panhard bar almost touching the bottom of the frame (second to last pic).. so im gonna make a bracket to locate it to the actual trailing arm, lowering the attaching point to a better position for a truck being lowered this much (last pic).....

Dude! I didn't know you were building a slammed dually!!!! :metal: :D

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
Lookin' good!:cool: A set of 1.5" or 2" lowering blocks would fix your panhard interference problem and allow for more air in the bags at ride height. This will give a better ride and help have your bags at the correct installed height- this will be especially true if you are running drop spindles up front.
How did you get that compressor to fit so nicely? |

You have a little leeway in how tall the bag can be, but not much. Most (2600lb)bags are designed to be installed at ride height at 6" tall. You can waiver either way by a 1/2" or so, but outside of that they will not ride as well. You can use the blocks to keep the bags at 6" installed, but ride 2" lower than you would without them. Think of the bag as a non-adjustable coil spring when at ride height. The pressure will vary based on load, but the overall height should be 6". Clear as mud?:lol: I was asking about the A/C compressor. It seems to fit very well. Is it smaller than the usual truck compressor? |
Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
the a/c compressor and mounting bracket are for a truck/suv....dunno why you have any problems with mounting it there... ive done a couple of these swaps and they all tuck right there in the frame rail nicely...

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
getting some more work done....got the trans cooler installed, drilled and located the trans x-member, mounted the rear hight sesnors, and a little more cab body work.... the lwr part of the dr. side cowl was roted out, so it was cut out and a new peice made......
also the truck oil pan was traded out for a f-body pan....now the pan is bout 1.5 inches above the front x-member, just how we wanted it...:metal: http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0082.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0087.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0090.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0076.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0075.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0085.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0086.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0084.jpg |
Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
and now for the heart of the beast......
this is a 6.2L with a 6L80E trans... for those who arnt familur with these GEN4 engines, this is a big bad mamajama, it has 403 HP and 418torque stock with varitable valve timeing (VVT)... the 6L80E trans is a automatic 6 speed with 2 overdrives.... but this isnt gonna be a stock engine when we're done with it, so more HP will be gained :metal: here is some pics of the engine and trans....also included is the 6l80e compaired to a 4l60e trans... http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0107.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0108.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0109.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0110.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0112.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0255.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0256.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/100_0242.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c8...k/000_0113.jpg |

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
What did you get the 6.2L come out of. Can you spill the beans on the mods yet.... Is it DOD??
|
Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
6.2 out of a denali.....mods, cant be spilled yet, but you'll see....the DOD, so to speak, is what they call variable valve technoligy (VVT) what this does is adjust the cam by advancing/retarding it while driveing...it does this on both the intake and exhaust...this, in effect, will give the engine good MPG, torque, and awsome driveability.
(in words of shaun @ mastmotorsports) The VVT phases the cam across the RPM range to effectively improve the volumetric efficiency of the engine. Think of it as adjusting the installed centerline of the cam for optimum performance while the engine is operating. It allows the engine to produce better torque for a given RPM that would not normally be possible in a fixed cam application |
Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
So are we to assume that dod and vvt mean the samething or are they 2different terms?
