    Video: 4.10's + centri blower; 0-100 mph in 8 seconds; Stock 2V Engine

    That rate of RPM change is consistant with about a 320RWHP car. You simply did not re cal your speedo. I have a similar vid of my car doing 0-150 in about 5 sec. Nice vid, but BS none the less.

    ok so here are my 5.4 3v pics.

    390WHP is ~ 460HP at the crank. Both of which wont propell your car (which weighs over 3,300lbs easy) into the 11's.

    ok so here are my 5.4 3v pics.

    I believe he did the swap. I see pics right infront of me. I do question his stories though. Custom cams, killing ls1's, thinking torque is the determining factor of a fast car... ect.

    99 gt what in it?

    see if there is a hole punched in the front of your oil pan... or a plug. If so, there was a vortech on it.

    ECM going out?

    I had the same problem a while ago.... Do you have a chip in the ECM? The reason I ask is because the shop that originally tuned my car didnt tape the diablo chip in the computer. It would move around and reset the computer about 2 times a day. All kinds of wierd crap happened. Would die...

    beat first LS-1.....blew up motor.......

    :bs: crapola :lol: Bill... Seriously man. Learn to lie better. And why the hell is this in the tech section? I have over revved many engines, including ls1's... They don't just "run completely perfect" then "die when they go 500rpm over redline" Hell, I have a stock 4.6 motor that...

    100% stock motor+cam opinion!!!

    I look at it this way... A t70 is the same price as a stage 2 cam... I am willing to bet a case of beer that I can make more power out of a stg1 cam than a stg2 cam on a completely stock car. Why? Because I degree the damn thing... Attention to detail people... Cams don't just...

    Patching Drag Radials?

    I don't think I have ever owned a tire without a patch... Due to my work and all the construction around my house I have picked up my fair share of crap in tires. I have been running a patch in one of my BFG DR's for about 1K miles and a plug in my front tire since the first day I got it. No...

    100% stock motor+cam opinion!!!

    ... I'm sure you just confused some people with this.:D Some people must learn the hard way though... Hmm.... "stage 20 cam is bigger than stage 3... must make more power..." I have personally seen too many cars lately with $1,000's in over the top mods (like a full race ported head and a...

    Engine "rattle"

    Start saving $$, and drive it till it stops running. By the time it dies, you should have enough green to drop in a new bottom end (if that is really your problem) My car makes so many noises that make me worry. If I drive without the stereo up I start paying attention to them all and go into...

    430 gears to big

    Depending on the power you are making, or plan to make, taller gearing could actually slow you down a lot. On my 99 I started with 4.10's, after the s/c I moved to 3.73's because of traction issues, and I have to shift way to fast, with the 4.10's I only spent about 1.5 sec in 1st and 2nd...

    Get the RPM tranny. As for a drive shaft, call a local driveshaft place. I get mine $350 shipped. All I do I cal in w/ measurments, and he ships out the next day. The new cross member is easy if you have a simple welder and hacksaw...

    IT'S BUILD UP TIME, ANY HELPFULL MINDS COME IN

    You should have enough $$ left to get some decent rims and tires if you dont already have them. You will need a good rear tire. Expect to replace often. And start saving for a differential. The stock one wears quickly.
