Do it. The LS is smaller and capable of way the fuck more power for less money. Plus more reliable than that dohc boat anchor.

LS isn't a waste of time, you can pick up a 300 dollar 4.8/5.3 and slap a 200 dollar turbo on it and instantly be making 500hp, upgrade the cam and valve springs for another 400 dollars and you'll be in the 600hp range.
All for pennies, which is exactly why the LS swap has become such a craze.
For under a grand you can have 600hp, it's impossible to beat that value.

You don't have to do any of that stuff to make it work, in some cases the engine might be fucked up and that would be a good refesher for a tired engine, but in most cases none of that is Buying a new 5.3 and tossing it in is literally cheaper and faster than replacing all that shit, which is part of the beauty of the whole thing, it's so insanely cheap that it's irresistible.

None of this is new, it's all been done and it's all been proven.

Just no.
That's not even mentioning the ECU, stock LS ECU has been used in 8 second cars, it's an excellent ECU for tunability, for the k motor you'd have to use hondata which is expensive as fuck, also transmissions, you can get a 4L80e for 100 bucks that will be strong as fuck and work great, good luck with your honda trans at 500hp.

Why not something more interesting instead of a generic "500 bucks and an afternoon"?

How about "M73B54 turbo GT-R", "13B Corvette" and lastly "nailhead Volvo"?

The LS is already making 500hp before having to spend the 700 dollars lol, that's the whole point here, the engine is dirt ass cheap for killer power levels.

>>17229616
>An SR + 4l80 or a powerflide is still lighter than an iron small block with a 4l80 or a powerglide
And will still cost more to make the same power as the 5.3, good job
Is the stock SR20 intake good to 500hp?
The 5.3 one is.
Is the stock SR20 exhaust good to 500hP?
The 5.3 headers are.
Is the stock SR20 ecu good to 500hp?
The 5.3 one is.
It literally cannot be beat for a budget power build, hence why LS swaps are so rampant right now.
The prevelance of the swap tells you this.

>>17229629
Also, stock SR20 head at 500hp?
I don't think so.
Stock SR20 cam good at 500hp?
Nope again.
5.3 yes to both.

>>17229636
I never said 500 stock...

What I was saying is that the stock LS ECU is good, you don't even need to spend that 700 dollars to reach 500hp, the stock computer does well.

The fact you're saying this shows you've done zero research, the dna racing 200 dollar GT45 glove is the go-to turbo for 5.3 boosting and has a proven history of working well with these motors.
You'd know this if you did 5 minutes of research into common turbo 5.3 setups.

>>17229701
Not true though, no matter how badly you want it to be.
There's countless videos on 5.3 boosting on youtube right now, like I said it's been done for the past 10 years and it's been thoroughly refined and tried and tested.
Shit, an SR20 alone is about 1200 dollars for a japanese imported one, 5.3 is 300, already ahead there.
If you think it's cheaper to get 500hp out of an SR20 than a 5.3 you're absolutely delusional, but I already know you're not educated on the subject because you didn't even know about the GT45 clones, that's entry level shit right there.

>>17229707
i got 431 out of mine that way

>>17229662
Getting bigger CC engine with sturdy internals is a way to go, like they say there is no replacement for displacement.

And it's often more cost effective since bigger CC engine often lasts longer as it's not stressed as smaller I4 units. Also it could be hard to find cheap transmission but that's not an issue with LS.

You can get LS, M104.996, 2JZGTE/2JZ-GE non-VVTI and get over 500whp on bone stock internals.

Are you trying to say that stock pistons, stock bearings, stock rods and stock head, stock intake SR20 will make it to 500hp?
Because the 5.3 can and does all day long.
Can you give me any cases at all of stock SR20s hitting 500hp?

It's about power for the money, a bone stock 300 dollar 5.3 with a 200 dollar ebay turbo, flipped truck headers, decapped truck injectors, it's really the way to go.
If it wasn't people wouldn't be doing it en mass.

>the crank doesn't care if it has 4 or 8 rods
Yeah, the number of rods doesn't matter but the overall strength of the crank does, and the crank happens to be the most stout part of the 5.3, with rods being the weakest and pistons after that.

>>17229818
>steering rack hitting engine mount
kek

>>17229823
>doesn't matter if V8 or 4 banger make 500 HP

Wrong. Horsepower is a measure of torque multiplied by RPM as a measure of work per minute. Large V8's can make 500 hp easily enough without having to deal with forced induction that would force the pistons down with greater pressure. The 4 banger would almost certainly depend on forced induction, which means greater pressure on the pistons, rods, and then the crank

TLDR Alphonse is an idiot

none of what you listed has to be changed on a 5.3, decapped injectors are free and work perfectly.
A set of injectors for that SR20 would run you a lot too, as well as a new ECU which the LS doesn't need.
Face it, if the SR20 was cheaper and easier to make power with, as well as being lighter, there would be no LS craze, it would be an SR craze.

>>17229881
3rd gen LS are bread and butter of turbo 5.3, the only difference is the tooth count on the reluctor wheel, which is irrelevant unless you're going megasquirt, stock ecu it doesn't matter, and the rods are beefier, so you can make 800hp safely instead of 600.
I think I even linked you a video in the past explaining the differences in the rods, that was a justinsane video.

>>17229879

>drop a valve
No, you get valve float, you don't drop a valve.
You would understand why valve float happens in boosted applications and why you need stiffer valve springs if you knew anything at all about this kind of shit.
You only need new head bolts if you take the heads off, which you don't need to do.
How did that post debunk decapped injectors?
Decapping works perfectly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD90VWBigLI
You don't need to chip the stock ECU, once again showing how little you know, the stock ECU can be tuned with a computer, you don't need to open it up or modify it in any way.
AEM computer for 200?
I never said the LS is ligher, I said if the sr is lighter and more powerful and cheaper and more reliable there would be no LS swap craze, it would be an SR swap craze,
Obviously this isn't the case.
Poor reading comprehension on your part.

Yes, ones from before 2005 are only safe to 600whp, 2005 onward are 800whp safe.
Both of those numbers are at the 500hp range we've been discussing.

Never said the motor will make 800hp without opening it, said the rods are good to 800hp safe, the defining difference between the two motors is the rod strength.
Never said there was no SR swap craze either, said that it wasn't to the level of the LS swap craze.

You don't know what you mean, because you have no fucking clue what you're even talking about beyond a skim of knowledge you picked up browsing /o/

The stock 5.3 head gaskets aren't paper, once again you're wrong on an extremely basic topic that anybody with more than a casual 5 min depth of knowledge would know

Decapping works, sending them in to get flow tested is a safety measure, and costs abour 40 bucks, vs paying 300-400 for a new set of injectors.

I- I don't even know what to say at this point.
Nothing of that B series would be stock by the time you hit 500hp, and you sure as fuck aren't getting there NA.

You can run stock valve springs as long as you don't give it too much boost

They still retain smooth idle, even the 80lb dekka injectors that cost 400 dollars have the same spray pattern as a decapped truck injector, once agian showing how little you know.

HPtuners doesn't charge you every time you change the tune, it's connect once and unlimited tunes afterward.
The only reason to stick with the stock computer is so you don't need a separate trans controller if you go megasquirt.
Goig megasquirt with a manual trans would be another option.
You wouldn't know about any of this though, you just ride the bus.

I never moved any goal posts by recommending the ebayturbo, it's a proven turbo and has a solid history of lasting years on daily driver cars.

I didn't even say SR20 wont handle 500hp, I said that getting there will cost more than with a 5.3, which is the entire point of everything we've been discussing, the cost of reaching 500hp.

I wasn't kicked out of the shop, I left because I literally had no reason to continue working, I wanted to put more time into my project cars.

>stock internals can handle 500hp
Handling and making are two separate things lmfao

Truck intake actually flows better than a car intake, the only down side of the truck intake is the height limits it's applications, thankfully it fits under the hood of the volvo
ONCE AGAIN showing you little you truly know.

You're being proven wrong far more than I am, you're literally being BTFO'd at every post and then dropping your name you back yourself up

>so, its not any different compared to a turbo 4 cyl, good job
Wow, so a 4 cylinder engine is actually just like an 8 except with 4 more cylinders?
Good job.
I'm sure all this time on the bus is giving you plenty of opportunity to do research though, you should be thankful.

>recommending used parts when everything I've posted so far has been new short of the engine itself
It's literally old vs new, if you wanna move goalposts like that I can say just buy a used cam off some forums for 50 bucks and have a dope ass cam for nothing

>which isn't a mere 1k, as you intially claimed
So the SR20 doesn't need a fuel pump upgrade to hit 500hp eh?
SR20 doesn't need anything you just listed there eh?
But the 5.3 needs all that?
Very weak, you're not even trying

>this all coming from the guy who thinks head gaskets are made of paper
Makes perfect sense at this point.

I posted proof that they flow at the same rate as the 80lb dekkas,and have the same spray pattern, people in the forums are speculating that the dekkas are just factory decapped injectors, they never put cover over the pintle to limit flow.
Decapping injectors is common shit, once again somebody who has never touched a fuckin motor in his life.

Never said it couldn't reach 500hp, just said that it would cost more than making a 5.3 do the same thing
You did however say that head gaskets are made of paper and didn't know the difference between valve float and a dropped valve, both of which demonstrate a complete lack of hands on knowledge, or any knowledge period for that matter

>>17229818
> why would a 2 liter engine making 500hp last longer than a 5.3 making 500hp, it's stressed more than twice as hard.

It's literally not, it's so completely wrong it's insane, there are no engines with paper head gaskets, none.
You have no idea about engines beyond what you've read on 4chan, at this point I don't believe you own a car.
You should post a pic with a timestamp if you really do.

>>17230135
holy shit you clearly are clueless.
Maybe if you got lighter wheels than your 5000 ton chinese copies you wouldn't need to engineswap your car to spin out in the corner at breakneck speed of 6mph instead of 5mph.
