Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I need to get the frame done on my 52 frame so I can get restarted on my 72. My daily driver (donor) dodge body is Such a POS I absolutely hate it. The body is pretty straight so since I decided to use the Chevy frame. all I need from the dodge is the engine and rear end. maybe I can get some parts money out of the old body and frame.:lol: I has potential for a first gen Dodge guy.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
stock engine with better headgaskets and a vortec on low boost with a carb box setup should do the trick , eazy to return to stock again too

:lol: Bad thing is we have a couple turbos to make that feasible but would need to go electronic injection to make it really scream. IMO Quote:

you might need to switch the floats in the carb or drill them and put foam in them before soldering them close again if there the hollow brass type so they dont collapse under pressure (still cheaper then a car for boostaplications or fuelinjection ) you do need to add a better feulpump and a boostrefferenced feulpressureregulator even on low boost just to be safe and if you got a vacuum assisted brakesystem and vacuum regulated automatic you need to make sumting work for those you could use that same pressurized box carb and fuelpressure setup for one turbo it be a lot more finiky and some more (expensive) exaustfabricating and you prolly need to loose the innerfenders if you dont want to cut intoo them |
Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I like all this turbo conversation going on, I have a big block vette with twin turbos I built 8 years ago, love how they work. Drives around like a stocker, starts great and shuts off when its hot. Gets the same mileage as it did before, if you can keep your foot out of it.

Its carb'd. Ihad a 750 double pumper that I modified as per instructions off "The Turbo Forums" and it works pretty good. I had a 4 speed in it when we made the videos but I have a 4l80e in it now.
