been awhile since ive been on this site. but my project finally got finished (turbo an 09 cobalt 2.2) and wanting to make my v8 car faster than it again. 
has any of the vendors came out with any new products for the lt1/lt4?
after my clutch exploded in the lt1 i parked it and havent touched it...
here are all the issues so far with my POS firebird
1. passenger door is cracked
2. drivers window sweep likes to wave at people
3. clutch grenaded in it and o'reillys, autozone, and carquest can't seem to find the 96 corvette lt4 clutch
5. the paint/body of my car is ROUGH
so after we close on our new house (next week) im tearing down the old house in the yard and building me a shop building 20x40 with 2 doors and a paint booth
i was looking at advanced induction again but they have went WAY up on their prices since i last looked... lloyd elliot still doing heads at a reasonable price?

If you're just looking for a set of stock castings, you can pick them up anywhere from $150 to $300 on the forums. The price is going up on them from what I can see though.

Not sure where you got $2500 from...their 200cc package (ported stock castings) are $1975 with a custom grind billet cam. For what they deliver, it's worth it.

yeah, no doubt but im sure i will run this setup after i get the engine dropped and start putting it together again. i just cant have a 4 cyl out running my 8 cyl car.
im deffinatly polishing everything aluminum on the engine that is a MUST have for me. heads, intake, acc bracket, altenator, fuel rails, ac lines, waterpump, and timing cover. just waiting on the house to close before i start on the garage to work on the car. so lots of reading to do

the 95 f-bodys were labeled as obd1.5 due to the fact this was their crossover year from I to II so essentially obdI with an obdII plug/connector
