LT1 Performance Help
Alright, I have a '95 Camaro Z28 A4. The only performance mods that I have done to the car are 3.73 rear end gears, a Dynomax Super Turbo muffler and a small street tune done by Henderson Performance Tech. in New Braunfels, Tx. I just graduated from high school and I don't want to sacrafice too much gas mileage as I will be using it as a daily driver for awhile. I have only taken the car to the tracks once and ran a 13.84 in the 1/4 and that was with street tires. I would really like to get more power out of my Camaro, but I don't know which is the best way to go. I would really like to drop my car in the low 13's. For the LT1 owners out there, which is the best way to go (performance mod. wise). I appreciate the help, thanks.

I say torque converter (stall)...hmm around 2800 i'd say. It will waste you a litte more gas, but a great performace part that will get you there. You can always shoot for nitrous also, open the bottle for a quick 12 sec. pass, then close it and return to its normal state...brilliant

I'd say headers right now, and if the trans wasn't tuned in with your "street" tune, see if they can up the line pressure a bit. If you don't have a CAI (Cold Air Intake), that'd be the first thing I'd get.
