Fixed radiator leak and had new hydroboost lines made - the ones I made leaked - could never get them clocked right (either too tight or too loose) to be in the correct position.

List is getting smaller.....

Please cage it before you go WOT.

That truck is gonna be deadly when it's done,and it has 0 aerodynamics and is made from cheap Chinese metal.

Back up and running. Bad news is that the trans bracket I made for the shifter hits the propshaft. If anybody has a solution let me know I don't feel like making another if possible. Left message w Tom at sportmachines to see if he has something already built.

You should be able to bend it down a bit with a tire iron to provide clearance.It doesn't need much.

This won't bend - it was made specifically to bolt to pan but it just is too wide and needs to put cable closer to pan.

Re: LS Swap Syclone Single Turbo Build

Rpm makes what I needed and sportmachines has a lever.

Bed news need to pull trans - I overlooked something and didn't install pilot extension on tci converter (99 percent sure it didn't come in box but who knows). Very frustrated.

Edit - it's fixed. Was able to just slide the trans back about 4 inches and install the pilot extension into the crank. If anybody uses a Tci flexplate with an ls swap 4l80 - make certain you have this pilot extension!

My buddy is going to bend up some brake lines for me, need to fix the hydroboost system, install shifter stuff, install propshaft and have a rear driveshaft made up......

Hydroboost lines no longer leak (for now haha - this was a very, very long ordeal). Found parts I needed for the hydroboost and all seems to work. I miscalculated the pedal rod length (I made it too long) so need to work on a fix for that.

Closer...

All I have are a few terrible I phone clips. I will try and get something soon. I will say it's no sleeper lol - 5 inch no muffler. Probably need to put a muffler on it in the future.

Need to find somebody that makes an adjustable hydroboost rod. There has to be something out there.

Just get some all-thread and a sleeve nut and you can make it yourself. Weld the piece on. That will be one of the easier mods you make to your truck :D
