That turbo was massive! Those air to water coolers are no joke. If he had dry ice and rubbing alcohol it probably would of went mid 8's and probably 6 more M.P.H. But that's fast enough 8.90's @ 150 is no joke👍👍👍👍
Everyone's seen hot rod big bang theory, what id suggest you look at is any of sloppy mechanic's videos, specifically the one about the aftermath of blowing his motor on the strip thanks to a wastegate failure. he clearly shows that the rod absolutely shattered thanks to 30 psi of boost, but the rod bolts (which he had re used in three different motors) held up perfectly fine after dozens of 7000 rpm runs
In the old days..we would weld chains on the frame and the shock tower..this would help keep the travel of the car down...you lose Alot of momentum going up then trying to steer the car...if you go into the other lane you lose the race and your time doesn't count either...**ONE#1**
That looks like a fun time! One thing I would do that car is replace all the glass for plexiglass windows. Unless he still takes it to the drive thru then ok I see why.
its almost like the more it wheelied the better the time, those launches were gracefull not too much wheelie but just right and back on the ground before the wind becomes your enemy.
i have the same car, getting a 6.0 LS soon with 4L80e trans (running donor vehicle). i figure im way past halfway there in cost, just need a turbo and a strong rear end. this is what orgasms are made of!!!
Ya the only thing budget is the motor setup . It’s honestly still a simple / light front end setup that knows how to hook and book . This setup would do amazing in the street
With a 200 shot in nitrous.After second, gear hits that car would run in the 8 50s.No problem, congratulations.I loveput a scramble button on that thing with a hundred and fifty shot or so
+ZoniacHD I do you are implying that this car is only good in a straight line but I'm saying you'll understeer into a tree and he'll oversteer into the crowd if you were to try to race at a track
This is a dumb comparison, one is a purpose build drag car that cost money rather than make it and the other is build to perform in general, be easy to drive, be comfortable for daily use, and above all make Nissan money. Its been a well know fact that you can buy and build a car that is fast down a drag strip for super cheap if you know what your doing and where to get the parts you need cheaply, even if you pay someone to do the install/fab work.
congrats on the 8.90 love the bu... I'm building a 79 one day ill have it done. what size tire an wheel? I did a max notch an wondering what I can fit?
Does the block have any work done to it to make it stronger? Like head studs and etc? And how much boost is that block taking? And I'm assuming the car is heavy..?
Those cars are surprisingly light for what they are. This was built post-OPEC, so it was light. Also, the lack of crumple zones, etc, means it's much lighter than a modern car of similar size.
I believe that iron 5.3 heads are 862, but theyre nothing special about the combo. Use whatever stock heads you happen to get on your motor, in the LS family theyre all pretty good, maybe even give them a home porting job but dont sweat it. The real power here comes from 5.3L of displacement under a good 18+psi of boost. If you take an iron truck engine out of say a wrecked silverado for $450 complete, then clean the sludge out of it and gap the top two rings to 30 thousandths the motor will handle 4 digit hp all day. Occasionally you'll have a Gen 3 who's rods will bend past 600, but that's only some of the motors. Worst case you're pushing 1000 wheel and blow the motor, then you just pop another $450 replacement in :D
KittyCow the $450 for a ls engine from a wreck yard is a theory. Down here in South tx there is no such thing. All ls engines from any wreck yard are $1200-2000 no mater if it had 200k miles. Them wreck yards got greedy.
that 5.3 is probably better for racing than a 5.7 or 6.0? that thing makes power everywhere and turns higher rpm easier than a longer stroke can could?
5.3, 5.7, and 6.0 all have the same stroke length! The only exception is the 4.8 and you'd be correct in that the smaller stroke length allows for more RPM than the others. However i would still prefer the non 4.8's because the 4.8 block has a very small bore and restrictive heads. I have seen people put the 4.8 crank into an LS3 block with aftermarket rods and make 8000 rpm monsters though that's far from a budget build
Thenitroviper that’s a lot of used Parts accumulated over several years but it could be duplicated pretty easily for around $15,000 complete. Low budget is relative to an 8 second 1000hp car that completed Drag Week twice and stays together.
Actually, this car in particular in this stage of it was still around 7 or 8k, most expensive parts being the th400($3500 w/ converter), intercooler, turbo and lots of other parts were used so lots saved there and another $700 on a holley system when they were on sale years back, some chin-lee head studs, 2x walbro pumps, I wanna say stock e85 gm injectors but not 100% there, internals are just about completely stock, just cleaned and clearenced in house(literally) we fabricated just about everything on there so no labor cost to us
@@sk8erman2298 yeah and for a 8.90 thats really good! but them chin-lee head studs musta been related to bruce-lee to make it through a 8.90 pass lol can't go wrong with a Ls but yeah not cheaping out on trannys is always a must in my opinion or you end up spending more in the end lmao
@@theenglishfam5877 stock 5.3 with h beams and forged pistons with arp everything and im assuming a head gasket with alien technology lol. Thats really stretching the definition stock The heading for the video should be ''5.3 piston rod engine goes...."'
Best part about that car, it wasn’t a puff of smoke that came out of that exhaust. That tune is on point, great work guys!!
Really awesome car! When he hit 8.90 I let out a spontaneous OH YEAH that startled my cats.
Congratulations guys!

stock Ls motors handle 1000hp all day. Gm wasnt fucking around when they built these motors to be strong
Google hot rod big bang theroy

If you read the article it says they did close to 60 pulls on the dyno at or over 1000.
piston skirts, rod bolts, wrist pins, and rods are issues that high up.. crankshaft however is a true survivor.
Rizo check out sloppy mechanics colorado getting close to 1000 rwhp in a stock 6 liter. That motors been beat on and beat on.
that was a beautiful launch on the 8.90 pass, brought it up high and set it down soft.
That launch was straight as an arrow. Just a little drift when she sat down but other than that, beautiful.
it was a beautiful launch, put down so gently!

I love it man. Flyin on the cheap! A buddy and I are doing the same thing this winter. Very cool.
a $2500 water to air intercooler and intake is not quite Budget.
Or those baller front runners
Compared to a lot of these cars it's a budget build. The car itself is nothing special. It's all drivetrain.
@@Reggie-The-Dog at least one of these guys got there head on straight
i bet he bought it used
8.90! That is a bad ass budget build! Great job!
WOW!!! a shock LS block going in the low 8s, magnificent
long live the ls motor, and got to credit the initial set of car, watch pre launch squat, there is a lot good there, job well done GM
He's going the distance. He's going for speed.
joedanero I see what you did there. Cake?...
But at least he's not all alone in his time of need....
You proved you don't need a $30K engine to roll some big numbers!
Love those G body cars.
Great weight transfer.
That looks like a fun time! One thing I would do that car is replace all the glass for plexiglass windows. Unless he still takes it to the drive thru then ok I see why.
Saw an early eighties Malibu wagon at the strip one time. It was beating up Mustang foxbody's all day lol. He spent most of his money on the engine.
This is how we use to stage before bump boxes were a thing. When you see the car squat before the hit that is him going from high to low gear.
Way to go Andrew, Shane and Blake..
Thank you for keeping track of us and all the encouragement
+62Deuce I have followed Crusty from the start, glad to see it's a family thing now... lol
Lol I thought u typed shake and bake lol
It launches Nicely ! That's how ya do it!
Congratulations!
it's very evident work
"Budget Built" I need his budget
my first thought was,turbo isnt a budget build lol
Aaron Kiss you can do this shit for less than 5 thousand dolllars guys.
the biggest thing needed is an imagination....
Ted Dow not gunna argue there. Imagination is what makes the whole build enjoyable to me
+Ted Dow For a single person that works a 9-5 job raising a family, putting food on the table and paying bills, $5,000 is not a budget.
RizoProduction time to make more $. Again, imagination... I did it......
That is F-N incredible! Most people spend upwards of $25K to go 8.90.
@urban hillbilly videos , hey can we find out how much e had invested in his build? as far as engine, trans rear end and turbo system
Congratulations on the 8.90
Nice we just picked up a clean running 5.3. Need something to put it in...
its almost like the more it wheelied the better the time, those launches were gracefull not too much wheelie but just right and back on the ground before the wind becomes your enemy.
yep; if they started slipstreaming the car they could get those times down even more
i have the same car, getting a 6.0 LS soon with 4L80e trans (running donor vehicle).

this is what orgasms are made of!!!
That 8.90 pass was so smooth
I am impressed!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!
Did the transmission get mentioned? That thing doing all the work and getting no love.
criswellwj the transmission is just a stock th400 with a hipster brake.

Thats a badass build. Gives me some ideas for my 76 camaro
prepping my 80 firebird for a ls 5.7 at the moment. same bodytype
Very impressed,awesome suspension set up,but if you look close ,,,not budget at all,not mine anyway
Ya the only thing budget is the motor setup . It’s honestly still a simple / light front end setup that knows how to hook and book . This setup would do amazing in the street
Lol idk if I would say a Holley high ram is quit the budget intake bruh
I'm trying to figure out how they mounted the radiator
infamousnova Yeah just noticed that, pretty cool for a drag car application
How much do i make the check out for to copy for an 83 camaro?
For a thrown together car it's pretty quick. Just shows you don't need a expensive best of the best car to pull quick times. Great job guys!!
don't let what they claim fool you, this car is well put together. I don't see it being thrown together. just my opinion
Imo it looks thrown together. Decent parts but there's no detail work. Like something put together in a weekend.
bad ass bro do your thing..for all of us low budget guys
i currently have a 'stock' 5.3L in My '71 Nova as well! So potentially i can GetR to GO THIS FAST!!?? WOW!! ..need The Engine Details!!! Cheers!
Hardest part was getting a g body to stick and track like that..nice job
What rear end gears? and what size turbo?
What cam?
It's an 88 mm Borg Warner turbo.......... I learned this from watching the video above.
I need a project like this. And a extra 500 a week for year or two...

That's controlled EVIL right there!!! Sweet ride!!
is this stock block with good stock gm rods n piston or aftermarket rods n piston??
AMERICAN MUSCLE BRO PEOPLE DONT KNOW ABOUT THE 5.3 BAD ASS ENGINE🖒
How’s the clearance with the steering column? For the turbo header
This is why the ls is the best engine ever made. And I'm glad he didn't put it in a shit box mustang. G bodies are a much better choice.
babiixoxbritty lmao if they could afford a coyote they would use one
Coyotes are no match against ls series engines.
@@henryhopkins8645 You mean if they could afford a coyote and afford to have the block resleeved.
BolognaTheTiger that too haha. Coyotes are just really expensive
Putting one in my Foxbody much better then shit box mustangs
Really amazing, how much boost y'all runnin'.?
Ozark track is 1/4 mile? Been years since I've been there. Thought I heard it went to a 1/8 mile.
It's quarter but the back half is short and rough

What power steering pulley you use..because stock ones hits nut on gear box
It had stock truck power steering, but now has/had in video TRZ rack
Congrats!
Goes to show LS is king. 💪
One second faster then a stock second gen vmax, craaaazy
Dude great pass ! Never mind al these turds talking smack your doing it and have the videos to prove it . Where's their cars ? RIGHT !

How was the wiring done??
that 5.3 is probably better for racing than a 5.7 or 6.0? that thing makes power everywhere and turns higher rpm easier than a longer stroke can could?

4.8 and 5.3 are the same block and same bore. the 4.8 is the shortest stroke of the ls engines. and also has the longest rods!

4.8 shorter stroke

Need your parts list
Hell yeah brother!
do ls engines come stock with forged internals or something? sorry if this is a dumb question.
Nope. They come with mild steel internals like most v8's. This one just had the bottom end rebuilt.
yeah I just hear of a lot of people having crazy success with boost and stock internals, figured it was forged or something. Thank you though!
Well you can run like 10-15lbs of boost on the stock ones. Forged internals aren't always necessary. no problem my man.
Not all rods are forged. Not a lot of engines came with cast rods, but they do exist.
A handful of other engines too. I think some foreign engines like volvos and mercedes had some engines with cast rods.
No cage?
Very respectable! I enjoyed the video.
