This is from 1998 when they were still the Old Dominion brand, but the cylinder heads were much improved since then;

unless you can physically see them and hold them, id think twice about ordering a set unless its a real set of old dominions from a legit seller.

Russ Arao worked at Dominion, and these are his creation. Buying from the link I provided above is buying directly from the man who developed them... he is as legit as they come in regards to these heads. Not to mention, I will only throw my money down in person, and take them with me the very same day.

Dave, lemme know if you want the LT1 intake that I never finished, comes with throttle body and fuel rails, you just need to finish welding it up. I have no more use for it...

project89

iTrader: (1)

i still want that heaterbox but u never gave me a price lol, what all needs to be welded on the lt1 intake still

Street Lethal

iTrader: (16)

The TPI distributor hole, it's already fit to install, just needs to be clamped in place and tigged and/or migged, that should take no more than twenty minutes to do. The bolt holes leading to the cylinder heads need to be aligned, I would just fill in all the holes with aluminum and make new ones based on the intake gasket that matches your cylinder heads, that too takes a short amount of time to do. Other than that, you would need to run a remote thermostat housing. Could do everything, including the box, as a package deal if you want bro...

right foot 1 transmission 0

i knew it wouldnt last long as it was never built to handle a forced induction motor, it was built to go behind a hot n/a355 sb but i did figure it would last a lil longer then it did

round 2 to ensue soon

still gonna make it out this way? prolly not since you blew up the trans lol

iTrader: (1)

ive got a spare trans i can drop in the car for the time being

Street Lethal

iTrader: (16)

Let me know exactly what you want/need Dave. A few pics without the LT1 throttle body, but the throttle body comes with it either way. The back piece fits exactly where it needs to be, all lined up, just needs to clamped in place and welded. The bolt holes I would do over again by filling all of them with aluminum, then redoing/matching them to your setup...

the intake and heaterbox/blowermotor

Street Lethal

iTrader: (16)

I pulled everything out of the garage, heater box, blower motor w/wiring, and LT1 intake stuff. Do you need the LT1 intake ported Dave, as I can open that sucker up tremendously for you...

i wrecked the car today dont know what im going to do with it yet as it got towed over to the body/frame shop since it wrinkled the strut tower, if its not saveable i will be parting out the car.

the turbo stuff will not be split up but rather tried to be sold as a complete kit

headers,turbos,coldside,intercooler,downpipes,megasquirt ecm and harness,new precision 65# injectors, twin areomotive 340lph pumps, oil lines,drain lines,wastegates etc etc

iTrader: (6)

Thats bad news man it was looking nice too
how much you gonna be asking for it?

project89

iTrader: (1)

i need to figure out what i have in it all first, the body shop said right now its a 50/50 shot at it being worth to fix.
from what i could tell the passenger side strut tower has a nice wrinkle, the passenger side a-arm and spindle are broke, think it twisted up the k member and god knows what else

34blazer

wow that freakin sucks! hope you can get it fixed


if not i know where you can get a nice 2dr s10 blazer and put one of those turbos on lol, jk

project89

iTrader: (1)

if its not fixable im going to switch to something with only 2 wheels
maybe a gsx-r or busa

Hey man don't feel bad at least it was t ur dad driving it and u watching from outside how he ends up in the ditch with ur turbo transam he hit the ditch so hard that the driver side tower dented the brake booster most people would have said it was totaled but I didn't wanna take everything out of it and redo it all so we took it to a frame shop and fixed it. Don't give up on the car I almost did but I'm glad I didn't is it ok to ask what happened?

noboostnogo

iTrader: (4)

Look at post 198 page 4 on my thread ull see pics of how bad it was after I removed the fenders and stuff

project89

iTrader: (1)

simple anwser is i had the car out after putting the new 700r4 in it and was messing around being an idiot on the dirt back roads. thought i was like ken block for a few mins till i ended up in the ditch.

noones fault but my own though shouldnt have been stupid trying to drift around the corners

awww man, i was so excited to see how this project turned out. Sucks to hear man but that can happen I know.

project89

iTrader: (1)

it might not be dead, talked to the body shop and the crease inthe strut tower isnt as bad as i thought, and its foward of the strut so its easier to fix.

its looking like new strut/mount spindle,spring, a-arm and k-member so far along with a fender ill know for sure in a few days though

project89

iTrader: (1)

car will be back home next week !!!!!!

How is she running though, is she dialed in with what she already has? Any vids...?

project89

iTrader: (1)

after swaping the fuel pumps im chasing the same issue i had a few months ago
fire the motor up and the car runs about 5 minutes then it just dies.it dosent run rough or anything it just dies like somone shut the key off. if i try to refire the motor right away it will not fire.
if i let it sit for about 5 mins it will refire and do the same thing again

fuel presure checks out at a constant 72psi and it never drops, so im thinking the icm is going bad going to pick up a new one and see what happenes

Street Lethal

iTrader: (16)

Did you coat the current ICM w/dielectric grease...?

project89

iTrader: (1)

well i got bored today so me and a friend went out to some of the backroads and marked out a 1/4 mile.
armed with a stopwatch and my speedo i cam up with a very dispointing 12.63 speedo read just about 130mph when i hit the marker so my speedo has to be off
did that @ 15 psi

even with not being able to actually launch the car i still firgured id get a better time that that specially at 15 pounds of boost

noboostnogo

iTrader: (4)

Hey ur stopwatch could be off 130 should bin or close to 10s depending on launch. Btw do u have a link to the thread in the fabrication section? I couldn't find it

project89

iTrader: (1)

i figured it would be atleats omewhere inthe high 11's,as far as the mph who knos i did have to peddle the car alot in 1st and 2nd.
as far as the 130 it just didnt feel that fast maybe 120 but i still think more around 115mph.then again the car rides so nice it may just be to hard to tell and speedo may be infact correct

which thread r u looking for?
