Re: The LS1 Engine swap....
 
Turdbo, I think I misread some of your comments, where you said the 1uz-fe was a great motor along with the LSx series. Apologies for that one.

Paxton, your problem is you like to bash on other motors, and you seem very biased against everything non-GM. Open your horizons, maybe swap a 2JZ in or something like that. There is no replacement for displacement, but everything balances out well depending on the power levels.

noboostedEGo, same issue fur you. I don't just talk about BIG MUSCLE NA IS GOD. Hell, the only V8 I have is in a Dodge Van, little bitty 318ci for now. I drive a frickin Cavalier with a 3.2L V6, thats not big muscle or N/a. And an LSx motor isn't big muscle. I love how just because I support someone swapping a motor means I am a nutswinger who knows some v8 trivia. Never said anything against the Toyota v8, I just stated that the LSx motor will have a lot more potential down the road, but it looks like Paxton might not have the know-how or skills to pull that one off. All motors have strong points and weakpoints. Of course the LSx can't rev high in stock form. But that problem can be cured by either not going Gen III SBC (ex: 327s can repeatedly rev up to 9000, or a DZ302) as can the low CFM numbers on the 1uz-fe. It is all about what the guy wants, and if he wants an LSx, then why the ---- shouldn't he try to shove one in?

Of course it's easier to make power, they have 3x the ------- motor. Big deal. Why are you even on this forum, when all you talk about is BIG MUSCLE NA IS GOD. ---- off. And your 1uz is sweet, I love those motors. Why don't you just build the motor? It's stock bottom end right? Have you had any port work done to the head. There's a lot left in it I'm sure. Or boost it. But there's no point to this thread, except to jizz on lsx motors. There's a million forums you can do that on...so yeah.

[not end thread/]

Butt hole - the point to the thread was to bring about awareness of the true potential of the LS1 motor...In case no one knew...I also wanted to get some feed back about it...I can't help it if people are posting on this thread...If you have a problem with it then just ---- off and have a nice day.....Now blow me and get lost...

Re: The LS1 Engine swap....
 
QikEnuf, you're not the nutswinger. You're the guy that knows some stuff about v8s (aka v8 trivia), I was denoting Paxton as the nutswinger, that is swinging from your nuts. He is the big muscle na is god guy. I love lsx motors, but hate when people compare them to 4cyl honda motors to say how much better an lsx motor is. It's a worthless argument, of course a 5.7L motor has more potential to easily make power than a 1.6L or 1.8L. That's all I'm saying.

Paxton, good work, cause before this thread, nobody thought ls1 motors were any good.

But yeah, i'm starting to feel like a douchebag that i'm still posting in this thread. So, i'm done now.


please

Dude what's wrong with you people ewww and ahhhh over a real car....
infact there is always a car out there faster then yours...I just haven't seen it yet in a 4 banger...
...Another testiment to larger engines being better, stronger and faster....These are the facts and they are undisputed...
I am smarter then most of you
too max out the 4 banger motors which some of you guys are trying to do, you guys are maybe able to achieve what 400whp if your lucky?....That is by boosting the hell out of the motor and stressing the smaller engine to the point of failure....
...Rude N/A power is king and very hard to beat..very reliable and more manageable then a twin 4 banger running nos to match the LSX power ....

Why don't you talk head about the LS1 motors and not me...The posting topic I thought was called LS1 swap and not Paxtonboost is a dick what do think? Come on fellas tell me what would be good way to boost the LS1 if swapped? What turbo to setup? Etc.. Talk shop and not head please for 1 post if you can? Help someone learn something other then a new curse word....

See, the problem people have with you paxton, is this...

Your knowledge base is below that of a retarded african pigmy, and your bias is based soley upon ignorance. You are probably looking for about 300whp with whatever motor you build, and just about any motor worth its salt can pull that # off. Just stop bashing people, and they might eventually stop bashing you. It's clear from teh Ban Vote post that people hate you. So just take your Lexus, boost it, and come back with finished results...

Henry turned on me...What a dick!!!!!!! People are bashing me because I am talking about a wicked v8 Gm motor that produces 400whpwith justa set of cams and good exhaust mods and not posting about a four banger import that is boosted and makes not nearly as much pow wow......It was too be expected, they talk ----, I gotta fire back, right? Honestly just trying to enlighten a few people that is all not trying to bash or start ----..

Anyway Henry, ---- you too.....

QikEnuF 10-23-2006 05:18 PM

Re: The LS1 Engine swap....
 
Tip, it isn't terribly hard to get a B series motor up into the 400whp range. Hell, D series guys have done it with the Vitara piston setup. The LSx series comes into it's own above about 500bhp n/a and 800bhp boosted. And why hate on imported 4 cylinder motors? Did you know the Camaro was actually made in Canada? Makes that whole deal an import too. Oh, and on the 4 cylinder import note (think this was pointed out before) but VW beetles with their little 4 cylinder motors will dust your Lexus even with an LSx swap. By the way, do you even know what the ---- it takes to put an LSx into a Lexus platform? Find a 2JZ, run a pair of like GT30R snails, and just be happy with a repeatable 500whp on a half-assed tune. We aren't bashing you for talking about "a wicked v8 Gm motor that produced 400whp witha cams and good exhaust," we are bashing you because you seem to think (a) 400whp is a figure unobtainable by anything else (b) that the LSx is the be-all end-all of high horsepower setups. Want to talk an outrageous swap? Indy Heads Hemi Race Legend 632ci (Might be off>) will destroy just about any of the N/A LSx setups you want to try to google search for. So before you declare the LSx the king kong of motors, take a look at that. It'd be a PITA to drive on the street, mostly due to the insane 16.2:1 SCR (Again, might be off) and the outrageous camshaft profile. But then again, you can get the Street Legend, built with 10:1 SCR, and spray it and have similar results.

You haven't enlightened anyone here, you have just spewed ignorance for 4 pages. You clearly don't know ---- about what it takes to make a repeatable 400whp setup, or anything about the LSx series motors. If you did, maybe you could spec out exactly what your LSx build would be, go to a JY and grab one out of a Camaro, and ------- build the bitch. Until then, BAN

Re: The LS1 Engine swap....
 
Actually, not too many people on some of the LS forums know about the aftermarket 499ci block. Doubt many care, because it is spec'd out for hardcore 1/4 mile efforts, less so for the street. Also, it is traitor, so your english is as lacking as your technical knowledge. Oh, and how am I a traitor? Because I pointed out some technical stuff regarding the LSx series motors as well as some SBF info and didn't agree with your bullshit remarks? Your ignorance shines threw like no one else I have heard about on this forum (except maybe Josh for thinking his business would succeed). Actually, google search me for teh company that produces the 499ci block, bet ya you won't find it buddy. Just because I know a bit about the Gen III small block family doesn't mean I have to copy from google/other forums like yourself.

You just go off and list random generic parts such as Cam and Exhaust will get an LS1 powered car to 400whp. Takes a bit more than just "a cam" and "an exhaust" to pull that one off buddy. You might have been swinging from me nuts with my tidbit regarding the LS7 responding to specific mods and making an extra 100bhp, but you fail to realize that the LS7 is a completely different animal from any other LS series or SBC in general. The LS7 heads are some of the best flowing heads from the factory (if not the best) at both low lift and high lift CFM. The LS1 heads, while good, are nowhere near as engineered as the LS7's. The LS1 top end from the factory doesn't breath so great up at the higher lift values. If you knew anything about the motor, you might realize this. The heads flow very well, but they need some work to get up around 400whp with just a camshaft and "an exhaust."

By the way, what the ---- is "an exhaust" anyways? If you want to "Talk shop and not head" then don't ------- generalize a whole goddamn system. While we are on the topic of shop talk, and since this is HomeMadeTurbo.com, here you go for a decent street setup on an LS1....

-4" Bore+4" Stroker Crank to make a good 402ci (math might be off?? its late)
-Good set of forged con rods (howards racing cams maybe? eagle?)
-Dished pistons (forged or aluminum if you want to be fancy) aim for like 10.0-10.5:1 SCR (I know Mahle makes a nice set of aluminum 9:1 SCR Pistons if you just want the boosted power) for good off-boost power curve.
-LS6 Intake Manifold (maybe a custom sheet metal setup if you throw down $3,000+ on a manifold)
-Good set of heads, maybe TPI Specialties Ported setup? 64cc Combustion Chamber and 218cc Runners (Does ProTopline make LSx heads? Maybe them?)
-Turbo(s) either run a single 67mm PTE, or, my personal favorite, dual GT35RS snails, all depends on what you want. With the higher 10-10.5:1 SCR, the 67mm shouldn't be hard to spool at all, might even get away with a pair if you go with the sheetmetal fab'd intake manifold and some nicer aftermarket casting heads.
-Run a pair of wastegates with either turbo setup, Innovative 44mm's or the equivalent Tial's.
-Should be good to go with some coated stainless headers, but for the baller setup, look into Burn's Stainless for some Inconel (spelled?) Of course, I don't think you should need to use that kind of expensive material for anything other than a huge (88mm+) twin turbo setup, which would really be for a drag-only car.
-Go large on the exhaust, depending on the space beneath the Lexus. 3" per side should be adequate for a sub-700hp effort, go bigger as the power increases.
-Transmission: Have ------- fun getting your current tranny to bolt up. See if a TH400 will squeeze in underneath. Run a lower stalll speed, maybe 2,500-3,000RPM. Not sure if you would want a T56 behind it, maybe a Lenco style tranny though. I don't know, this all theoretical.
-Rear end-Ford 9", gearing close to 3:43, play around with your own ratios if you actually pull this one off.

Think I just about covered the drivetrain/powertrain, other than the requisite axels/tires and some of the misc. motor stuff (ARP studs all over, bearings, etc). Fuel/Ignition should be nothing less than a standalone setup on the level of a Big Stuff 3 setup or equivalent. That enough "shop talk" for you? If not, and you are actually serious about pulling this off, pm me if you are still allowed on the site. Be neat to see an boosted LSx in a Lexus. Haven't ever seen one, actually. If you are going to call me a traitor, don't do it because I know a bit more about the subject you brought up than you do.

LMAO? A book? I do have my share of books, but they are on things like Triumphs, Rolls Royce's, Turbochargers (corkey bell, little biased, but a good technical read), factory manuals for a Mk VII Jaguar, 1957 Bel Air, things of that nature. Nothing on GM engines though, so sorry to disappoint.

Turdbo, might be the better torque low range torque figures of the LS2 due to the .3 extra liters of displacement. Early LS1's had a slightly larger camshaft, because they had to go with a smaller bumpstick when GM threw on the LS6 intake manifold. Not sure what year though... The LS2 runs the old 405hp LS6 heads as well, which are a good bit better than the stock LS1 pieces. Raised intake ports, and a redesigned combustion chamber shape help it make the jump from 10.x:1 (x is a lower number, like 1 or 2 i think) in the LS1 to like 11.0:1 in the LS2. All that goes along with the improved exhaust manifolds and other bits and pieces like certain sensors (knock and one other) being moved around. They are still very similar motors, just with upgraded parts.

And Paxton/Nospower, (a) you have a split personality, (b) you didn't post ---- for info, other than just generalized statements. And the 572 Crate motor is a piece of ---- for how much you pay. Isn't it around like $15-$18k?

QikEnuF 10-24-2006 03:33 PM

Re: The LS1 Engine swap....
 
Gearing could have also played a factor in that. Some cars might have been able to keep the rev's in the sweet spot around 3500-4000 rpm and really come out of the turns hard. Suspension plays a big part in that as well. and it might not make a difference, but I think the LS2 is 10 or 20lbs lighter than the LS1. On a road course only car, I'd love to see a 944 or RX7 running something like a 302 or 327 small block just to be able to rev to high hell and back. Of course, a DZ302 motor is a bit expensive to put in anything but a Camaro just in terms of resale value. But you could put together your own 302/327 for relatively cheap. Just don't go with the GM pink 327 rods, unless you want to be limited to about 400hp or so. Shouldn't be a problem though. And you are right, I don't know squat about LSx motors or anything car related. I have been talking out of my ass this whole time. Sorry for being a traitor...

Good now that you have told the world you don't know ----. Stop talking about things you don't know.
