Hey, from my 50 some years experience if you pressure wash anything first to get heavy stuff off you can let degreaser do its job down to the metal much better 🙂
Mad skills and creativity! Love your channel, and what you had in that car was a 260 Old's smogger not a Buick, Buicks of that era had a front mount distributor-think early 70's Wagoneer with the Buick 350.
Haha I used ebay valvesprings. got about 20 hours of hardcore to the wood ripping in my mud truck hour after hour running amazing and finally broke a spring and dropped #7 exh valve in my 6.0. flat towed my tow rig and the trailer for over an hour at 3k+rpm. going with 823 rec port heads, tsp stage 3 ls3 cam should be making 550 crank.
@@Rustomod we used to have problems keeping the 10 bolt under the X body GM platform. The centering pins on the leaf springs like to let loose and go dog walking.
@@Rustomod thank you very much. I want to ask you please. You mentioned in this The camshift is turbo cam shift so , how can know between cam shift N/A and turbo cam shift?. my project exactly same your projects except the engine is 6.0. I want to buy silence cam shift for Turbo but I don’t know which one
Nice video! Love your enthusiasm 😊

CClamps won’t hold a load on a fork because of the taper. Blow a hole in the fork for a pin or shackle.
Definitely
Love it !!! Reminds me of the old road kill episodes !!
Big compliment thank you
Every cam is a turbo cam FYI. Ss2 is always a good all around cam for an ls.

Yeah didn’t realize that pretty interesting
Such a good project. Great work y'all !
Thanks!
Hard to find an LS motor in my area for under $750 so getting a full vehicle is a great idea
Absolutely and you have everything for it to run!
I MISS MY 76 NOVA SS
WITH VROOM VROOM POWER...!!!!
I’m a sucker for a Buick

have a high mile 4.8 gonna toss my ss2 cam in with factory springs and slap my little gt3582 on it and slap it in my truck
We’ll see how these last
If I do a long bed to short bed conversion on my c10 do you have to change anything in the dmv
No you should be fine
No
You better get some ebay frame ties and figure out how to keep the rear end centered under the car.
Oh yeah eBay the way

Humm we probably will run into that issue also I would imagine I’ll have to research a good fix.
Would truck exhaust manifolds fit flipped
Yes that is pretty common
where are yall from?
I have done a pretty crazy build aswell as a couple budget builds recenlty and enjnjoyed this one! keep it up!
Southern MD
U didn't have to gap the rings
We didn’t
What turbos did you go with from maxpeedingrods rods?
GT45
What size are those turbos??
Gt45
The pvc side has build up due to bad rings sucking the blowby on that side
Pre gapped for boost!
How did you get a $600 truck?
Oh, and 3 transmissions and a torque convertor for $100 not realistic for average Joe.
Free Snake Eaters and 400k front and rear main seals 😂
Facebook usually has some great deals
Can you share the camshaft link

@saadarb all cams will work with a turbo. Some will be better obviously. Look up Richard holdner. He has tested tons of ls cam and turbo combos
What turbo headers are those❓️
why not use the transmission from the silverado?
You can I didn’t because I had a 4x4 Silverado
Turn the engine upside down then pull the cam
Rebuild the 400
Why not just turn the engine upside down to keep the lifters up??
I was thinking about that! That was plan b
You can use chopsticks to keep the lifters up. Or wooden dowels@@Rustomod
That's not a buick motor!! That's an oldsmobile. Buicks have the distributor is in the front of the motor. Olds has a filler neck in the front! SMH!
Your correct! Learning about all this pretty interesting
No its not its in the back like all gm motors
Thats funny, my.first car was a 78 buick skylark s I picked up at a buck yard for 200$
