forcdind, nice looking car! I love the corvette procharger placement, the f-body kit is really low and doesnt leave much to the imagination.

Hey Bob, if i were to convert to the cog kit how much is that gonna set me back all said and done with 12lb pulleys?

made up my own tubing-it orig made 488 RWHP, ran some high 10's @125
i orig had a switch/pitch turbo 400, i later built a 4L80E on the cheap, best addition ever-ran on Pass Time, filmed last Sept, just aired last week
i now have the 403 in it, more power, lol 617 RWHP, 518 TORQ-the converter def didnt like the dyno
the car is all steel, ful stock interior w/6 pt bar, pretty heavy car
i orig built it to see how it would all work, with the int. of later upgrades-it was so trouble free, i ran it 1 1/2 years like that, lol
i have had prob 10 Procharged cars, B/B's, S/B's, some with massive power, i just like boost, lol-they have all been street cars, i just prefer track rentals now, or a not to crowed T & T, not much into waiting in line for an hour to run anymore
What RPM do you spin her too? With a 7.5 crank pully you could put a 3.4 blower pully on her and probably make 15-16 psi. She'd be well into the 7's if you did that!! Remember you can overspin the blowers up to 10%

they look pretty damn good! They have 3 levels of them...

1- http://www.compcams.com/Cam_Specs/Ca...csid=1419&sb=0

2- http://www.compcams.com/Cam_Specs/Ca...csid=1420&sb=0

3- http://www.compcams.com/Cam_Specs/Ca...csid=1421&sb=0

The EPP cam has been proven time and time again but these look to be damn good as well.

I like the first one , I was going to spec out my own cam , 225/240 .610-.600 on a 116

for my LS2 project but not sure yet , working on custome grinds for methanol injected motors , running pump gas and up to 20% meth on the boost .

11.5 AF @ M80/20 = cooler exhaust temps

Bob, left you guys a message this morning...need to go ahead and get all these parts ordered from you if I can. Give me a call back when you get a chance. Thanks, Brad.

Im gonna shoot for 9's this year at full weight with the 6 speed. Car will prolly weigh in at close to 3700# with the cage going in. There is a guy on here that ran like a 9.92 with a stick at like 3550# I believe (SSmokin). I ran a 10.5 @ 134 the first time out with the new tune. I think with more seat time and not granny shifting (shortshiftin) I should get damn close.

I'm hoping to be around LS1REDZ's power level and gunning for low 10's with the new setup. I'm thinking about changing the rear gears from 3.89's to 3.73's though. I DD the car right now and it'll see a lot of street duty so its better for the highway. If I sort out my setup well enough I might be able to crack out a high 9

I went 9.80's @ 3810# with a 4L65E and a 3.70 gear 27x11.5 Hoosier QTP.
Car is 100% complete with AC. I also ran the twin 4.5" Procharger F-Body intercoolers when I did it.

I made a dozen or so 9 sec runs last year.

Build thread was here.
