85 truck lc motor swap

[Skinny_Pedal]

well its time to put that lc engineering motor in my 85 turbo truck. what prismo and i are trying to do now is make this truck a non turbo. if i get a computer and harness can i still use my turbo intake parts? will the harness match up to the harness inside the cab of the truck? can i use the non turbo injectors in the turbo manifold if used with the non turbo harness? the reason for this is the truck did not have the original ct20 on it. it has a air reasearch m10 w/o a water cooling. so i want to switch over to regualr n/a. anyway here are some pics of our progress

     sounds like fun 

[Skinny_Pedal]

big bore throttle body and old motor. also have hi-flow injectors but there non turbo. like already stated i want to trade or purchase a complete non turbo setup in trade for my complete turbo setup

[decyfer]

sexy little engine. can't wait to see it in.

[Ramrod]

why don't you want it to be turbo?

[CTENG in KS]

Damn, that some nice chit right there...I want one.

[Skinny_Pedal]

why don't you want it to be turbo?

the truck didnt come with the ct20 on it like it should have. it has a garret t2 on it without the water cooling. my new motor also puts outs 9.8 compression so detination would be a biotch

[Skinny_Pedal]

anyway i got all the parts to make it a non turbo. i have a new lcengineering header(believe it is), complete 86 efi, harness and computer. got the lower intake on, motor mounts, and other misc stuff. robbing all the cool turbo stuff and put it on to, like the oil cooler . will get pics tomarrow. tomarrow finish bolting up the upper intake and harness, slap the marlin clutch on and set her in(the goal at least).

i would be willing to bet your going to get more than 135 hp

[crawlerdan]

i have 145 on the same motor, and had 185 on the strocker  

[79coyotefrg]

ok i just notice the "street performer " head,  but you'll still have a great engine,

[Skinny_Pedal]

thanks. i do plan on running it on a dyno after the break in. it sounded quite nice for a minute running the straight header

[crawlerdan]

only for a min though huh? then your head explodes

[eddybaboy]

If you don't mind saying... what was the damage?  I want to do the same.  My head cracked

[crawlerdan]

mine was 5800
the second in my daily driver was 3700
worth every penny

[Skinny_Pedal]

$1100 in the crate still wrapped. i guess im just one hell of a shopper arent i .  o the truck has left prismos and is at the exhaust shop tonight so first thing in the morning that can get done. it sucked ass driving it 25 miles straight header. big thanks to nick(ttf) for heading out tonight and helping. but most of all prismo for taking on the swap and dealing with my crap

[Skinny_Pedal]

here are a couple pics of the motor almost assembled getting ready to toss in the truck. will take pics of it in the truck tomarrow. also i start the dash teardown for the efi harness in the dash..o joy

also anyone notice the old man hard at work?

[blacktoy]

sweet looking engine ...

[eddybaboy]

[unclejpl4x4]

[Skinny_Pedal]
