Anyone have a smog legal LS1 that's fast? Anyone out there have a fast Camaro or Bird that's smog legal? I'm considering buying a stock SS and going the smog-friendly route. I want to build something that won't upset neighbors, and doesn't cost $200 to smog.

Thats what My plan is. Not really fast. only thing I wanna do now is a Mild Cam. Full Exhaust is already done so thats kinda all you can do.
Smog Friendly your looking at around 350-380Hp range is my guess.

The goals for my car are to make good power, have good street manners/drivability and still be smog legal (or as close to it as possible) to avoid smog hassles. It's taken a LONG time to get everything put together and get it dialed in, overcoming a lot of break/fix and upgrade problems along the way.
I'm headed to CMS tomorrow to get the final tuning done (ran out of fuel pump up top last time on the dyno so I just installed a Lonnie's double-pump setup).
Hoping for ~550rwhp with ~10psi boost and no nitrous on the CMS dyno through an unlocked Yank PY3400/4L80E/MWC 9". Maybe eventually 600+rwhp on boost+n20.
Not sure how fast it will be once dialed in, the car weighs ~3600# without driver.

My goal is also a smog legal 350-400 rwhp NA build. When I get the funds for FI, the goal will be 550-650 rwhp. However, if your car legally has a motor from a year 2000 or higher vehicle, the sniffer test will not be done after Jan 1st 2013, so that makes it a little easier to pass, assuming your intake/exhaust parts are OEM or have CARB E.O. #s.
