98ta's 4.8 Truck Motor Swapped Trans Am With A "Not" Cam

[topmcat]

just wondering how difficult was it to put in the 4.8 vs an ls1?

I don't care what anyone says, that car sounds like it has a choppy cam in it. I want a video of it idling smooth.

Since this video was recorded as a joke the 4.8 is out of the car and now it's a 5.3 block bored and stroked to a 347ci w/ 6.0 ported heads and nitrous cam. Car made like 35X hp on motor and 520 on 200 shot threw th350 and 10 bolt. Search my youtube and you will find it.

Owner is taking the 4.8 and placing it into a 79 Camaro and putting turbo on it.

p.s. the new setup has went 10.80's so far and still on the stock 10 bolt.

Alright man, i'm a little confused??? So what engine is making the noise in this video?

Nice job on the "iron block" LS1, that thing is moving. It's funny how some 10 bolts can take serious abuse

This video is the 4.8 motor. Since this video was originally shot the 4.8 motor is pulled out of the Trans Am and in the process of being put in a 79 Camaro and turbo'd.

Now this car in this specific video is a 347 (the stroked 5.3) with a th350 & still using the 10 bolt rear. Hopefully that clears things up for you.
