Congrats Joe. I saw the runs.

but how can we call it an LT1, i mean the throttle body is on top and it has like 15 degree heads, its more like a bow tie block then an lt1. Are they LT1 heads. If so thats great but if not then its isnt an LT1. Great runs, but just looking for clearification.

Joe Overton

surely on the clarification
94 issue Lt1 block
afr 227 Lt1 reverse cool heads
adapted conventional efi intake
stock 94 opti-spark <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> (that should raise some eyebrows)
what else you need to know? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

You guys are way out in center field , i know joe well and know his motor from top to bottom , some of the parts in his motor came from me , and i can ashure you that motor is a LT1 it has """""23 DEGREE"""""" reverse cooled AFR 227 heads and opti spark , hell the block in the car is even matching numbers , its the same block he rolled that car off the show room with . Why do you guys find it so hard to believe that a well built , well tuned motor can perform ??? Just because it isnt a LS1 ????? the motor is a great well thought out combination and i can understand why joe withholds some info on his motor , otherwise EVERYONE would have a 9.86 running LT1 , thats racing """deal with it """ but dont accuse it of being a 15 degree headed motor , thats you LS1 guys

I guess that iron block was standard Fbody issue <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Lets not go there again, Joes car is more production or gm part numbered than alot of the upcoming fast LS1 stuff <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Joe what kind on engine management do you use? WHat Rpm do you turn it?

Joe Overton

accell gen7+, shifting.. I'm still varying to see what works best this past saturday i had shiftlite set at 7400 ran 9.86/9.88 set it at 7200 ran 9.89 so next time i may try going up to 7600 just to see if it helps..motor will spin to 8k+ question is if i need to go any higher than 7400 or not..

Congrats, that's a killer ET for an N/A small block LT1.

For the guys who are in the dark, LT1's have been running 9's before LS1's were even on the dealership lots <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
