355datsun280z Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Please post pictures of your z cars with chevy LS engine swaps with turbo setups on them.... I have a 77 280z with an old school carb 355 sbc built up buto this last week I totaled my 04 chevy work van with 4.8 and 4l80e and so it's gonna get swapped with a turbo setup into the car now that I have the motor and everything for the swap since I still have the complete van.I would love to see how people ran their turbos and piping and exhaust and just how different people do things and would love to get ideas from everyone. Plus who doesn't like looking at turbo chevy powered datsun thanks everyone and can't wait to see your engines and builds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Down to little odds and ends. All that's left is wiring and heat wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zspeed22 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) What manifolds and engine mounts are you ruining? I like the setup looks good. Also is that a holley mid rise fitting under the stock hood latch? 5.3 s480 Edited May 25, 2016 by zspeed22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathaninwa Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Looks like the 170 speed daddy headers off eBay I ran them on my all motor setup with them up and forward instead of down as they hit some accessors down like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CableSrv Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 I'm about to go Turbo, however I'm finding it hard to route headers since I have the stock alternator location and JCI's ac compressor location setup. The driver side I am hoping I can get away with having the truck manifolds turned upwards and forwards... and hopefully that will give me enough clearance to pass over the compressor. If not, I might have to mock up something to go over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Zspeed22- How did you mount your alternator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zspeed22 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Zspeed22- How did you mount your alternator? I milled the back of the alternator so the plate mounting to the head would be flush with it. Then using a stock Fbody mount for the rest of it directly to the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Merrill Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Photobucket is dead. I wish they would allow hyperlinking from google but it states extension is nor allowed. I use it on other boards all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CableSrv Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I use imgur.com to host all my images and it works pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zspeed22 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Post close-up cell phone photos if you get the chance. I am not sure if this helps. I am currently at work still and this is the only photo I had of it. I will get one of the backside of the alternator as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zspeed22 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Post close-up cell phone photos if you get the chance. There is space between the nut and the valve cover just hard to get a picture of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
