Holley Blower Breather Tank Install In any normal internal combustion engine, generally the intake never sees any positive pressure unless it has some device such as a supercharger pushing air in. On our Project No-Name Chevelle, we went from a naturally aspirated LS3, to a Torqstorm blown LY6. One detail that we missed was our catch can set up. Holley made this swap easy with … [Read more...]

Project ’55 Bel Air: Engine, Trans, and Steering Install
'55 Bel Air Engine, Transmission and Steering Now Complete! A few months back we worked on Building The Ultimate LS BBC for our Project '55 Bel Air. The time had come to nestle the engine down into it's new home, which is a stock frame we built at the beginning of the year. We started the process by bolting up our 4L60e transmission - you're probably wondering why we didn't go … [Read more...]
Building The Ultimate LS BBC!
It's a Big-Block! No Wait...It's an LS? If you remember, a few years back we dabbed a bit into building an LS to look like an old SBC/BBC in our Project Way-Gone '66 Chevelle Wagon. We had so much fun that we decided to go that route again in our '55 Bel Air build, but go a little bit further to see if we could fool more people. There's no doubt the LS engine is the new SBC … [Read more...]

Project No-Name: Blown LS Engine Build V3.0
Building A Blown LS On our Project 1966 Chevelle, we've dubbed it Version 3.0 since this is really the third major round of upgrades for the car. The very first time we upgraded the engine was over 10 years ago when we rebuilt the 454 BBC that came in the car. The second time around was four years ago when we ditched the BBC and went with a built LS3. In all honesty, the … [Read more...]
Video: Unboxing TorqStorm SuperCharger
TorqStorm LS Supercharger Unboxing On our Project No-Name 1966 Chevelle, we've been building a new engine for it.

Now you can buy the supercharger all by itself to use with your … [Read more...]
Holley LS Oil Pans – Which One Works Best?
Holley LS Oil Pans - 302-1, 302-2, 302-3 On Project No-Name Chevelle we have been using the Holley 302-1 oil pan for years. With the stroker LS3 it was the perfect pan for the engine and the car. The only downside was that when turning hard the inner tie-rods would hit the oil pan at full lock. We were going to weld some stops on to fix the issue, but didn't want to lose … [Read more...]
