Build Results IN !!!! Alright guys, just got the car back yesterday. This is going to be a results and shout out post all in one.
My build
Used Long block from vengeance racing.
-Mellings oil pump
-TFS 215's
-Vindicator cam ( nasty sounding idle and i dig the top end, mid range is not as bad as people had me scared of when going with such large cam)
-Pistons
-Rods
-Vengeance Ported 102mm
-Nick Williams 102TB
-FTP 104mm Lid
-Fast Toys Ram Air (if i did it over i think i would skip this)
-Texas Speed 1-7/8 headers (thanks for the group buy fellas
)
-TSP true duals
-Textrilia oz700 clutch (nothing but love for this unit)
-Tick master cylinder ( excellent piece)
- MGW shifter (hope it loosens up some, EXTREMELY tight)
- FIC bosch 42lb injectors
- Walboro in tank fuel pump
- !AiR
- !AC
- !EGR
Big thanks:
Texas Speed- Always cool on the phone and let me change my order from my pacesetters to the TSP ones, and even told me about the group buy when i had no clue about it. Top Notch guys.
Vengeance Racing- These guys are great. Ron, I sincerely apologize for the huge debacle over the Injectors and i deeply appreciate everything you did to get it all worked out. I can't stress that enough.
WS6store - Great resource for tracking down parts, and good customer service over phone. One of my favorite place for parts.
PCMforless - Thumbs up to the guys down there, car runs good.
But most of all.....
The biggest thanks goes out to the guys in Charlotte at Zeus Performance. At the start of all this i called around to some shops and some kind of had this "we are doing you a favor" kind of attitude. Then i called Zeus the guys are very nice and their work is top-notch. I could not be more satisfied with my car. Eric and Jay really seem like stand up guys. They talked to me in layman terms on the things i didn't get (although i like to think i know a LITTLE bit
). They explained the cost, the whys, they would call if they thought the car needed something, just top notch in my book. They worked with meeting me after hours due to my schedule. Great shop. I couldn't believe their friendliness, workmanship and price. I will definitely be taking them my car for all the things i can't do myself.
Anyways, dyno sheet is attached; and thanks to the guys on LS1tech for guiding me through the research and planning phase. They helped keep my head on straight when my mouse finger would get to itching.
Now.... wheres the fire extinguisher..... my wallet is smoldering!

Congrats! definitely sounds like your happy. I hope to be in your shoes this fall "when the smoke clears" as I have been told.
About the Fast Toys Ram Air, what would you do differently? I am currently wondering about what I am going to do.

Yeah, I have a ultra z hood and the ram air setup that goes with it. Not sure if I want to go to the 104mm lid or stick with what I got which has a 94mm internal diameter.
You didn't say, but are you on stock rockers and lifters? Also, you kept making power or at least it wasn't dropping off, why stop down the run?

Comp lifters
i depise my 104mm its a total POS, i may even down grade to 98mm if it lets me clear a SS hood.
I am actually planning on calling PCMforless, monday to ask about a redline as i was not present for tuning.

The drive ablity is pretty good, I'm still on the stock 3.42's so I'm thinking some 4.11's will help with the bucking. I'm just wait for the twelve bolt first. Other than that, she drives great.

get a 9" over a 12bolt for a 6speed car.. awesome numbers man.. the 98mm FTP clear air lid clears my SS hood with room to spare.. no adjustments necessary to the 4 hood rubber things.. and FWIW before the 98mm clear FTP lid I had an SLP 78mm stock sized lid that would rub

And great info on the 98mm lid, is it the same as the black one? or are you thinking of a different one?
