Re: 85 lwb turbo 5.3 build

The stock truck setup works great. It's not as pretty since you need to use the truck intake instead of the LS1, but it's VERY cheap, and good for around 500-550 rwhp.

So what pressure does the regulator need to be for. Will a 30-65 psi work? Many them things are expensive.
