Default New class for Ls1 cars to run in.

We ran in Cheap Street the last few years. Cheap street is being revamped. So, there are new opportunites for LS1 powered cars to run in this series.

Read it here...

Ls1 heads are legal. Up to 415 cu inch motors are legal. Max .550 lift, but you can supercharge or turbocharge...

Neat. There are like three reasons I would not be able to run though, oh well.

No YSi blower's, maybe his exhaust too.

I think its a bad *** class to run in. LS1 vs. a bunch of other small and big blocks. Cool! And street cars too. Probably need bottom 9's or 8's to win though.

The lift in the cams will count out a few of us. I am at .612/.633 now.

Why not twin turbos? Some of the best street systems are TT like LPE, Incon, etc.

Looks like us ATI LS1 F-body dudes can't compete if I read it correctly
"All pushrod engines must use standard rotation (non-reverse) supercharger, with supercharger inlet mounted rearward facing"

We have foward facing inlets

Cam size is a lil small as stated above,
i'm at .578/.602

Gee,
.6xx/.6xx kind of puts my plans out.

One nozzle for nitrous, that gives me 8 extras, Ooops, oh yeah, two extra solenoids also,,,and some race "fuel enrichment=high H.C. content stuff in a lil jug up front!

3.5" collector same as PSJ, But its only a collector

Damn it.

Thats pretty cool. I always thought the claimer rule was made the class pretty cool, but apparently I was the only one since no one was running that class.

Of course, if you do plan to run in that class you'll need to be running mid-9's or quicker to keep up with Hendricks's firebird.
