Hell yeah I can't wait to see them what kind of headers do you use and is there any info on them so how long before you go solid roller and go mid 9's and congrats again.

I use Whisper 1 7/8" headers. These are a mid-length non-stepped header that are, IMO, the best header ever made for large CI LS1s....unfortunately, they are extremely hard to come by since the only ones ever made (a handful) were pre-production models. They never made it to regular production. <img src="images/icons/frown.gif" border="0">

BTW, it's a hydraulic cam in case anyone doesn't know.

You can check my post on page 2 of this thread for a little more info on the car. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

They work pretty well on a stock internals car too <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Funny, I came in here to ask if you were still running the hydraulic cam <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> Guess that will go by the wayside in the prosute of the 8's.

Thanks fellas. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

The videos are on their way to me I believe. <img src="images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">

"Guess that will go by the wayside in the prosute of the 8's."

Naah, I think the hydra cam is good for 8s with enough juice. I'll save the solid lift cam for 9.5s on motor.

Congrats Stephen, I saw this post off of Corvetteforum.com. You have accomplished soemthing that only one other person has done so far. Next year, I predict there will be more than 10 people in the 9's N/A, and a handful in the 8's with power adder.

Thanks! <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

I had hoped to be the first in the NA 9s and it looked like I would make it when I ran 10.06 back in the middle of the summer...bad luck just wouldn't have it that way.

But, I am VERY glad to be the first one to do it with a hydraulic cam or an automatic tranny. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

Yep, 2002 will be another great year for LS1 advancements! There will be more and more strokers, forced induction, direct port N2O kits, and attention paid to weight reduction.

I don't know where we'll be a year from now but I'm sure it's going to be ONE HELLUVA RIDE!!! <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />
