Yes, an auto shifter. In my coyote coupe
It looks like the lock out lever should be on the front.
I think your right! I have it backwards but I haven’t mounted it yet.Quote:

I’ll just cut into this compartment. It will sit pretty good in there once this is done.

Made little bit of progress. Cut the dash to clear the shifter body and cut the coil bracket and test fitted the coil next to the brake booster. I broke a coil when I put the motor in. I didn’t realize it would clear.

Making progress!!! Looking good! What intake will you be running?
Probably just a filter on the end of the Turbo.
He meant intake manifold I think...Quote:

Just a factory LQ4 truck intake manifold. I think it will work fine with what I got.
Those actually work really well compared to the aftermarket offerings.Quote:

I was struggling with steering shaft hitting exhaust manifold. I installed a smaller diameter steering shaft from STS machining and cut piece of exhaust manifold. It clears now.

Nice work! You are making good progress! Be ready to run soon?
I’m dropping the driveshaft off this week to get a splicer installed and balanced. I still got quite a bit to do but it’s definitely getting closer for me being able to start it.Quote:

Starting put the accessories in. The pressure line on the Volvo Rack and Pinion is the same thread size as the GM pump. The exhaust manifold clears pretty good. Should be able to start routing the exhaust pipe soon. Also I’m about 90 percent done with the throttle to Volvo gas pedal. Should of bought a adjustable cable but I’ll make the GM one work.

You're making it look easy!
Looks awesome! Should be wild!
Thank you! I’ve been wanting to do this a for long time.Quote:

That's impressive! The 4.6 has some size on the LS too. Looks like he might know what he is doing!
Happy Birthday too by the way!
Thanks Brian!Quote:

I got the new driveshaft installed. Trying to figure how to mount the turbo and route the exhaust.

Harbor Freight press? That's what I have and I love it for what it is and how cheap it was.

What turbo is that?
Yes Harbor freight press, after I got new a bearing pressed into my 03 cobra Knuckle for 50 dollars at a machine shop it was a no brainer to buy one.Quote:

The last turbo I beat on for 3 years and it’s still tight. I’ve had Garrett and Mitsubishi turbos that needed rebuilt in less time. LS Volvo guys wanted talk me into a 7875 turbo since they’ll make more power. I can worry about that in the future.

Hard to beat that turbo for the price! Very good comparison of them all. I kinda figured that the S475 would be the one to make the power but the 1.32 made it lag on the little 4.8.
Sounds like you have a real good plan to make some power. Will be interesting to see it done and making passes! Gonna be real cool!
This took me way longer than I thought but I found a home for the turbo.

Little more closer. Made a half cold intake.

Mounted few things today, the coolant hoses, new over flow tank is now mounted. Going to start working on the exhaust and intercooler piping next. After that I can start wiring it up.
https://i.ibb.co/42BD5GD/B67-FEC33-D...F0-B7-B7-A.jpg
2.5 bar map sensor Barb was larger in diameter than stock one. Drilled out a larger hole to get it to fit.
https://i.ibb.co/ZNx3fkt/DEA5-C5-B1-...F43-B37065.jpg
Didnt realize I had to drill through 3/8” of metal to just get the screw hole through.
https://i.ibb.co/j5ZHRv0/DD018619-79...5672-D28-B.jpg
The turbo took the spot of the factory overflow tank.
Started on the down pipe. Going to mate it to the existing 3” exhaust system. Got intercooler inlet figured out today.

Starting to look like something.
https://i.ibb.co/HGsL32G/B4-AC8-EE7-...-A335285-C.jpg
Looks factory!
I hope someone ask me if it’s a Volvo engine. I’m thinking about putting on a Vortec 6000 engine cover and change it to say Volvo 6000.Quote:
