just got it dynoed today!!!
I was told to get some 76lb injectors and a dfi system for a serious power increase!!!timing was a conservative 12 btdc after the btm did its work.
331 dart block,s-trim,edelbrock heads and intake (rpm),42 lb injectors,full aeromotive comp,fuel system,shorty headers,( I cant figure out how to get my signature to show up sorry)
when are you going to run. (no times i'm assuming)
1) You needs tires.
2) you will need a cage.
3) you will need to know how to keep that thing in a straight line.
MOST ls1's are now out of your range, however, watch out for the ones with the head/cam packages those ***ers fly through the traps. I new a young guy who had an '01 or '02 (can't remeber) with roughly 450-470 rwhp and was smokin everything. I think he was running deep deep 10's with heads/cam/full exhaust/a rear/and a compliment of bolt-ons. Mind you this car was street legal, with AC and PS. He has a small camshaft to boot, also just drag radials not slicks with the six speed. I even think he made a magazine cover. Good job on your numbers.
thanx wil i truely respect your car also!!!I have a guy I work with with a 01 ss camaro he runs like 12.7 with long tubes and a cam set-up, nice car too bad he thinks the car makes him too cool>> Either way i built mine and mine is paid for unlike his, he is racing for the bank of america!!!! thanx for the compliments guys it sure make sme feel good!!!!
If the guy you work with has an '01 SS running ONLY 12.7, then he doesn't know how to drive his own car - pathetic - those cars run 12.8-12.9 in the quarter BONE STOCK.
If he has exhaust AND a cam, then somethings wrong. Either installed wrong or driver error because those cars with exhaust and cams should see mid to high 11's. Is his car dyno-yuned yet?
Also, I'm gonna be looking into building my car soon, would you recommend starting small or going crazy like you (no offense intended) Any part suggestions.
I dont think i went crazy!!!I put together a combo in my garage that happened to work pretty well. I drove 2 1/2 hours 1 way to dyno in traffic to get this done, so it is reliable and fast!! I wanna pull some wheelies,that is my goal!!!
