Would also recommend a trunnion bearing kit for the rockers and a warspeed oil pick up bracket, These 2 items wont break the budget but are massive interms of fixing the major engine killing issues the LS engine family has, glad to see the content rolling and even happier to see a Ls build 🤙
Spot on mate i have said for years a even a stock ls owned by a old fella ect should leave any shop with the trunnion upgrade like it's kinda the sort of thing a tradesman has to insist on
Trunion upgrade is an absolute must. Last thing you need is needle rollers going through your engine. They should have had a bronze bush from factory lol
May suggest, next time remove the box from the bellhousing, and leave bellhousing on engine or remove after box, I assume 6060 work the same as 56. Also with the bonnet, remove the single bolt on the slide section and no lining back up needed afterwards
1000mm 1/2 inch extension, ball type uni joint and rattle gun goes a long way with bell housing bolts, also most cars you should be able to drop the gearbox a fair bit to get to those top bolts, wasn't many gearbox's I couldn't do this way in my apprenticeship. Glad I don't work in a gearbox specialist shop anymore.
The best thing about working on a Ute is using the tray as storage! 👌🏻👌🏻
Hahah it actually is
I'm doing this myself right now to my VX, except I've rebuilt the motor ground up, forged everything. Tip: how ever much you think it will cost, multiply that by 3. Do the same with how long you think it will take :) Also, anything that says it's a "kit" is never actually a complete kit. Can't wait for the next vid.
So keen to watch this one guys! Will be the next thing I do to my LS2 converted VY Calais and have been interested in this kit
Heck yeah. Started watching you guys a few weeks ago, tried to catch up with most of your videos. Been hanging out for a new one and was very excited when I saw this pop up on the home page!
can't wait to see this beast finished, it's looking good dan
Good video boys, but I reckon your A/C compressor might have ‘caught’ some water after that pressure wash.
Looking forward to seeing the following episodes.
Great vid guys awesome to watch
Doing research on this pretty much exact build 😅. After my 5L Vt build thats next hahaha already got the LS just looking for a ute shell now, thanks for the vid boys ill be using this as university😂
Great episode. Can't wait to see more.
Top job guys, cant wait to see the rest of the series and see how much power it ends up making at the end.
Only thing i can point out from experience and also some others have had the same issue is careful of what looks to be the box of raceworks rails.
When you do the brackets up tight with the injectors in they tend to hit on the manifold bolts. Because of that the o rings on the injectors foul and leak.
Hope you guys dont have any issues like this though 👌
Love it, best channel on the youtubes!
Yah, just watching you guys with the spark plug boots.
I had the same problem with my VZ when installing a full MSD kit & loom.
I just wound up wiggling them off with multigrips cos I was replacing with 10mm leads & new plugs anyways.
They really didn't wanna let go!
6-8k is budget? daaaaaamn. Making my own manifolds at the moment. Turbo kits nearly worth more than the car.
Hay guys. How I remove a ls engine is remove the inlet manifold then the top bell housing bolts are easy to get and you can then use a engine lifting plate on the valve, a carby one fits using 4 centre bolts. And with the manifold off the engine will come out with the bonnet still on.
I'd do sump and rear main while you have it out. Looking forward to the next step. I have a VU and all the bits to turbo it and am about 4 weeks from starting my build.
You had my curiosity. Now you have my attention.
Put the ute front wheels on ramps and motor and box come straight out on that angle you can even leave the hood on.
Another great video you guys are great
Still waiting for the XE build but all good don't mind a little Holden content still watch it though
love what you guys are doing to the LS motor . Also could you guys do review video on your MILWAUKEE power tools.
Im also a big fan of your channel.
Out of curiosity, any other Canadians following this channel wishing we had these cars here?
Love to see you guys are doing a turbo Ls🤟🤟🤟next time u wonna get to that top bolt I would say remove the inlet as it would save alot of time cant wait to see next weeks episode 💪💪💪wells one guys
Heck yeah fellas
I’m actually surprised you never just dropped the box out and sat it aside. (You can even just split the box off the bell housing to make it easier to get to the bell housing bolts)
Dropping the k frame will make building your x over pipe easier. Can do it on the floor then before it goes back in.
Definitely another comment and agree with doing the che trunion upgrade and the warspeed oil pickup bracket.
Small insurance to be fair. Maybe even a Mellings oil pump upgrade while you’re there.
But loved the episode, that turbo kit is pretty decent for the price to be honest! Going to be a good build series.
Keep the aircon, put the PCM in the kick panel. It’s going to be a cool cruiser
"It's got one of those Bluetooth exhaust mounts" 🤣🤣🤣
Love the video guys but for the top bolt get a few long half inch extensions and angle the box down and get it from the back
you can definitely get it in and out all attached together. its tight but it will get there with 3 sets of hands.
if youre seperating it, pull the box from the bell housing or drop the gearbox cross member and use every extension in the neighbourhood to get in there on it.
definitely also have a look at doing a trunion upgrade while the motor is apart as well as rear main and sump gaskets.
Absolutely this. Got my LS and trans out in one go with only 2 of us
Hey guys. Pull the intake manifold off next time. Makes life a lot easier. They come off really easy too. Whenever I pull a motor or box I always pull that off first. 5 minute job saves hours 🤙
If you do a VZ V8 radiator conversion which I strongly recommend, you need to join/short the wires that ran to the coolant bottle so the low coolant warning doesn’t stay on.
I'm doing my own build right now and was wondering what I was gonna do about that, cheers for the tip mate
@@BonusChip no problem mate happy to help! Had to do it in my VY
Tip for the next one you remove. If you take the intake manifold off, it makes getting to that top bellhousing bolt so much easier. Its how I've always done it.
Crikey ol mate can draw him a good looking turbo on that note pad.
While the heads are off you should give them a tickle 👍 basic blending does wonders.
Don't know much about the LS, but given that you plan to pull the heads off, and she'll be on a stand, would it be a good time to drop the pistons out and open up the ring gaps? Maybe even a new set of big ends and new rings?
Wanted to see some of Gemini build, glad to see a project that is gobs better. Great to see it.
Arms in places 🤔nobody in this room to mention that arm thing again. Arms in places they should never be 🤐
Definitely drop the box no need to drop the k frame just seperate the bell housing from the box its heaps easier would recommend braided clutch line with some heat sleeve and remote bleeder kit at the same time though
Next time undo the one bolt that separates bonnet hinges in half. No need to line the bonnet back when putting it back on. Also seperate the box from the bellhousing. Makes it easier to get to the top bolt
Easiest way for next time on a ls is undo the box from the bell housing then once the box is out take bell housin off
Would it be easier to get the intake manifold off to make more space for accessing the top bellhousing bolt even though it's a little bit more work.
The reason why is everything is so tight is because this Commo gen was based on Opel Omega B which was engineered only for straight six and zany 54 degree v6. 😂😂
You can do my ve/ssv redline ute also since you've done this one.
Different body,maybe different procedures???
Also, as long as it's FREE😆😆😆😆😆😆
Hi guy,luv wattching this as I want to turbo my ls1 can u let me no the name of people u got your turbo kit through thanx fellas.keep up the good work.
How many km has the ute done keep up the great content
dropping the k frame will make your life so much easier
Power steering cooler boys
Should’ve taken the bolts off the side of the hinges the bonnet literally slides off if you do
Came here to say this, also dont need to line anything up
I was going to say the same thing
I always take gearbox out by unbolting it off the bell housing because the bolts are way way easier to get to the just lift the engine out with bell housing attached, pulling k frame out is just to time consuming and ridiculous when you can just do it that way
Yes, I am actually chasing a standard VY LS1 air box and pipes. For my VY Cross8 Crewman that came with an awful pod filter.
How much?
I find that removing the intake manifold and removing the bolt from the top to be the easiest way
I agree, I also battled like the boys did for several hours before i worked out that removing the intake was the way to go. once the intake is gone that bolt is a 1 minute job.
Hackshop Garage is it possible to Install Mustang 10 speed automatic gearbox on a FGX xr6 Turbo ? By that i mean take out the 6 speed ZF gearbox and install the Mustang 10 speed auto gearbox ?
Car use to fry out the front of the skatepark back when Sean had it 🤌🤌
In NZ non captured springs are illegal.
Just wondering if you can give me a link to the turbo kit that you brought
I've got a turbo ls1 monaro and it feels kinda eh even though it makes 410rwkw. Will probably forge it and use another turbo in future. Right now building a turbo k24 ek civic which will destroy it.
To bad Ur weak bro
I have a VH commodore that you can use to do episodes castlemaine rod shop independent front suspension kit chassis kit v8 swap and supercharger installation lol I have all the bits
How much KMs on the ute? And how much is the kit?
❤💯💯💯
I just finished installing that kit made 520hp on 10psi
Link for the kit pls
use a genuine rear main seal. you will need oil pump pick up support
They are actually are one of the most simple engines to remove you guys made it look so hard 😂 remove the starter for a start and unbolt all accessories but the water pump and sit them to to the side remove alternator and undo the top nuts and bottom nuts on the engine mounts and lift it out you’ll have a lot more room without those bits on it
Heaps easier to just pull the box fully out first and then remove the engine 🤙
Lmao if i had to lose the A/C i'd be like "na boys, scrap the project altogether, rather have A/C than a turbo".
Done this not long ago with a mates car, neither of us had pulled that car/motor combo and found out the hard way there's a trick to it. Remove all the accessories, rad, starter, extractors etc. Remove the exhaust, tail shaft and then split the box from the bell housing then you can pull the motor out. Like you guys we spent wayyyy too long fucking about doing it the wrong way for this car, in the right order it's only a 3hr driveway job.
🤣🤣 top bolt on the trans might have been easier if you’d undone the trans mount and dropped it down a bit 😀 or just pull the engine and trans out together next time.. entertaining though 👍
Before you touched the car, you should have run it on a DYNO, so you could have seen how much extra power you got out of the motor with the mods you will do.
Na you don't need head studs. I'm running factory head bolts on mine for the past 4 years, never had a issue lol
Where can I find them rims
T56 gearbox in VY and VY2 unless its already been swapped out.
fly out my vu ss ill let ya do it to my cammed ls ahahah
Now I've got Cher in my head 🤣
Were you two speeding 😏 obviously not, just checking 🤣
which engineer do us use?
did i just find the aussie haggard garage?
I dropped mine out the bottom when I took mine out but that's a VE
So budget kit..... total cost with all the parts used as a guide would be great????
In Part 2.
Our turbo VY one tonner budget build cost $12,500. Cam, valvetrain, oil pump, turbo kit, fuel system, tune etc. Made 625hp @ 13psi on a 70mm turbo if that's any indication.
Figures generally are all over the shop, i took it on the basis of 12-13k but im near the $18k mark and still going.
12-13k was to get the turbo kit in and going with a fresh cammed ls1 (doing the work myself) and it didnt make it that far.
Its all the added stuff that has blown out cost. Like battery to the boot relocation, decided to go a surge tank setup, all new engine accessories, astra pump conversion. New power steering rack.
Once you start its how far do you go. 🤣
I dread the day i look through all my receipts once the car is done and calculate everything including some of the tools ive had to buy like an wrenches and a flairing tool just for the fuel system.
@@TorqHub hey man i've watched your series you did on that beast a fue time's while taking notes and tip's and what not rob's reaction video is priceless lol i got a vz ute ls1 and looking at doing my own set up with a ''mig and steam pipe'' :) intake pump and injectors with a t4 is what im thinking,cheer's for the cost price and all your hard work has helped us alot mate cheer's
All the expert opinions come after the video, maybe a bit more homework should be done in the first place to avoid the comment bashing. Or just fly blind and learn from mistakes and film it. Either way i get a laugh, thanks guys.
eBay GT45 😂
How much?
use oven cleaner for degreaser its half the price and works 10 times better
Hahaha 🤣
Didn't know you could Pressure wash an engine. Watch heaps of video telling us not to. But have you done this before without experiencing anyproblems?
if you drop the k frame you will be able to build the crossover on the ground aswell
Is this done in a shed at someones house
Bring it down on the k frame next time, I’d be putting it back in that way.
It's 2022 guys, hasn't this been done a hundred times before. Ls turbo conversions are a dime a dozen nowadays. Maybe an Lt2 corvette swap would be a bit more current but not cheap. Maybe a 2k Barra, they have all been flogged, Ls this Barra that. What will we be doing in 2030? Think outside the box guys don't replicate what others have done.
Im keen to see what theyre doing.
I havent seen all those other vids you mention, im here first.
Theyre doing a budget, and keeping it basic, to see their own results, as they havent done a turbo before...
Your contribution may be welcome elsewhere.
Great stock soon as you want to upgradevabd mod there a c:'"#t😕
Prettier sure they come stock t56 not t6060?? Prp tip undo the single 13mm or 14mm bolt on the bonnet hinges and you don't need to realign the bonnet 👍👍 pro top number 2 split the gearbox 🤣🤣
