I'm glad to see you are still going with the D-1SC. You'll be glad you replaced the Maggie! Bob

yeah, im sure if anyone is interested in tuning these motors to a higher level of perfomance, a swap from a maggie to a centrifugal would be, imo, a must; if the current owner has one installed that is!!!

How noisey are those BMR toe-rods? I have read that they are really noisey and transmit alot vibration to the cabin...which are two things i dont want. I got enough with the sunroof, diff, door locks, and trans!!

I think its just a boost-a-pump.

Bob,
How well did that work? It was recommended to me but I never heard of anyone using it on an f-body

We didn't notice a lot of additional noise, and Mark has not mentioned them being bothersome. Bob

Yes we used a Kenne Bell Boost A Pump. We have used them in the past in conjunction with a Walbro 255 pump in F Body's, and in some of the other installs we have done. We will be keeping a very close eye on fuel pressure now that we are upping the fuel requirements substantially. Bob

We're doing a ULTRA STREET 383 LS1 with AFR 225cc heads, methanol...and magnacharger. Just didn't think the magnavolt would be enough,...so we added an intake Holley. I was curious to what the procharger would call for.

Drove it home for the first time yesterday,...everything seems fine. Just trying to get some miles on it before the dyno session(s). I think the car needs a different blower or, better yet twin turbo's.


Best wishes with your project(s) Bob.

Thanks, I appreciate it. Hopefully the Total Seal rings show up today. They were shipped out from Total Seal last week...
An ATI ProCharger or a turbo would really add some more power to your car over the Maggie. Bob

We will now be adding 1 7/8" headers to this V while we are reinstalling the engine. This V is going to fly! Bob

Hey, that's a C6 ZO6 with heated seats, buddy! No, but honestly, if that's what I wanted, I'd buy one.

True. Where you at? If I pass thru KC or I pass thru I'd like to check out the Impala.

I'm in SE Michigan about 30 miles NW of Detroit. I was going to check your car out when its at Exotic PP. Bob is only a couple hundred miles from me and I figured thats as close as your car is going to get to me. Even though I'm pushing 17lbs of boost, I just have a T-60 turbo and your car should beat mine with your latest round of mods. I do have a wet NX kit for special occasions. :-) I'm selling my Firehawk and Impala and I plan on a Procharger or turbo for my 04 GTO. Bob knows his stuff and I'd like to check out his new shop one day in the next couple weeks.

John Tarvis 96 Dark Cherry Impala SS forged 8.5to1 355, turbocharged, intercooled, nitrous injected, coil per cylinder, 67000 miles. $12500 with fresh hipo trans.

That's cool. You're right, these guys do know their stuff. Good luck with your GTO.
