Re: Koppertop ls turbo
Thanks...well, only put about 200 miles on this 5.3 and already hurt 2 pistons...so I found a 6.0 for $300 that I'm going to build. Only has around 50k miles on it, but I'm going to go thru it and put forged bottom end in it... then I'll have a tuner that knows what he is doing, so hopefully this does not happen again..

Re: Koppertop ls turbo
Nice job on the badges. It might be cool to make some "8-294" or "8-323" for those who want to be a bit more subtle about their swap.

Re: Koppertop ls turbo
It sucks...hope all forged 6.0 that I have will be stronger, make more power..plus I think I'll run on e85 and have it tuned .have the holley efi on it.. thing ran extremely hard at only 5lbs of boost...felt as strong as the old big block that's in my sig..
