Richard is back at it, testing turbos and telling us all just how to make real power with a Chevrolet 5.3 race, I mean junkyard, engine. After all, every junkyard LS is a race engine in waiting right? In this video, Richard is testing a GTX3584RS turbo on a 5.3. The turbo is rated for 900 horsepower, but a lot of folks would say this thing is too small for a 5.3. But what if it gives great boost response and makes big power?
Let’s see what this sucker does on the dyno!
