Sorry to hear about the fender bender. That sucks.

No meth, unfortunately.

My goal is not to get every last HP out of it. Keeping the stock motor in mind, we will continue to tune very cautiously and keep the tune conservative. Meth would help, but I don't have a kit installed. Last time we tuned it to where there was no knock, verified that by a dyno pull, and then took an additional 1/2 degree out for safety. Also keeping the AFR 11.2-11.5 over the RPM band at WOT. If I had a built and forged boost motor, I'd go 11.8 AFR, but we need to protect the weak little stocker.

Sounds like a good game plan. My first run before I put the meth on with stock 853's, 226-232 113lsa, on 9ish psi made 575 with no knock around 15deg. AFR was 11.5 throughout the whole run. Meth is a nice saftey blanket and you can also tune for it if you wish to. If I was you I'd look into running a meth kit. I got mine from cooling mist for around 500 bucks. Easy to install and its nice knowing its a little safer. I'm still on my stock bottom end for another couple of weeks. The forged motor should be getting done shortly. Insurance adjuster will be out on monday to see what the deal is. All I want done is the windshield and dash/steering wheel at min.

Nice numbers. What is your compression? What heads and intake? Header size?

EPP blower cam

You guys think I would see a good gain going with a Vic Jr setup and bigger headers? What about different heads? Just been wondering about this.

Hello LS1REDZ how much boost you making on your set up?

OK i am running A/S stage 1X ported 241 castings, flow about 300 at .550-.600
Using the diamond -8.6 cc boost pistons, i should be around 9.3-9.5 compression
Using the Stock LS6 intake and accufab 75 mm polished Throttle body
Using FLP 1 3/4" Long tubes, (small) 2.5" Y pipe, no cats, and that is going to my "stock"
SLP single 3" exhaust to the stock SS duel duel SLP muffler exhaust

LMAO, thanks. I almost spit coffee all over my monitor. We built it as an all out race effort to run in our local Texas True Ten.5 Extreme Street class. It's a 99 T/A 401 CID solid roller, A2W intercooler, P/G with a Neil Chance converter, fabbed 9" w/4:10 gears and alot of other bells and whistles. Had a couple set backs early on and haven't had a chance to get any goods runs in on her yet, it made over 900 RWHP on 16 lbs of boost on the dyno during the initial tuning pulls and made 26 lbs of boost during track testing. Hoping for consistant 5.3X's in the 1/8th and some 5.1X's with some good air. Should be a monster.

That's awesome. If you have any races down at San Antonio Raceway, send me a PM in advance. I'd love to see the car run and check it out in person.

I am running a custome J bracket, using the extra supercharger mounting bolt hole, J bracket is a little wider for more strenth, GM auto spring belt tentioner with 8 rib pullies , Using this Custome set up alllowes you to keep your ATI procharger 7.65 8 rib crank blower pulley , but a LS3/LS7 water pump is required because they have a low profile pump pulley.
My set up was upgraded to having all my pullies snap ringed to prevent bearning walking, so far so good

The bracket was manufactured by Jakes Performance Solutions. Our race weight is 3300 LBS minimum. I have alot of pictures of the build but haven't downloaded them to imageshack yet. Anything else you want to know just ask.

Well good news here guys. Insurance company is giving me 6100 for repairs lol. It needs windshield and a dash and will be good to drive. I've been looking at getting a forged 370 and boosting it as much as the D1 will go. What do you guys think for heads? CNC'd 317's? What about possible power? Rest of the parts will be reused from my sig. All input is welcome.
