Back to the forums (deleted FB and IG because they suck).
I was never super active here and in the SDAC group on Facebook but would post from time to time.

Recently posted some photos of my van I was finishing on SDAC FB group, I’ll use the forums now and make a semi sort of build/build progress post.

Build list is below

Finally got the van all together and went for some test drives the other day.





After driving for a bit with only partial throttle I gave it some gas and oil puked out the catch can pretty bad..

Did a compression test and found cyl 1 down, only 45psi.



Going to pull the head tonight, crossing fingers it’s just a head gasket. Note- the head was installed and driven on prior to me installing big turbo setup.


Build list
-5 speed, A568 transmission
-TU stage 4, 6 puck clutch w/ lightweight flywheel
-Stock bottom end 2.5
-Mild built head; beehive valve springs, PT lifters, barely + sized valves (don’t remember exact size), mild porting.
-TU cast exhaust manifold
-ATP swingvalve
-TU tranny buster turbo, 50trim w/ stage 2 exhaust wheel and .63 stage 2 exhaust housing
-ported 2-piece lower intake with custom upper plenum
-ffv green top injectors
-high flow fuel pump
- 3” turbo back exhaust
-frozenboost air/water intercooler


The purpose of the build is just to make a clean 350-400 whp. Do lots of burnouts and have lots of laughs.
