I have an 86 GMC sierra deluxe. I’m in the market to put a turbo kit on the 4.8 LS swap that I had done. I’ve been searching for about a week and I have had really no luck finding any complete kit that I feel comfortable using without more information. No one seems to have many answers From any phone calls I’ve made about turbo kit on an LS engine in a 86 GMC. ANY knowledge that anybody is willing to pass down would be greatly appreciated. $2000-$2500 budget. Of course if I could get something good for less I would entertain that thought as well(Extra coin for other parts is always nice). I have not changed the Cam pushrods or springs So I’m not looking for a huge turbo kit. I figure I can always put more power in later. Thanks for any help. I’ve just started getting into working on trucks and I really don’t have a lot of knowledge but I do like to learn and I pick up quickly. Look forward to any responses.

What are your plans with the truck and what are you doing for a tranny?
