Default Out with the D1SC in goes the F1A

I was in the process of swapping my 6 speed out for a th400. Got tired of breaking **** at the track doing 6k drops. So I decided it was time to do the swap since I melted my clutch to the flywheel. So while I was doing that I found a really good deal on a F1A from a fellow member. So it was time to upgrade that as well.


So now I have.

370ci 9.1:1 comp
TEA stage 2 LS6 heads
Epp blower cam, Epp FMIC
Ls6 intake stk TB
Kooks 1 7/8 w/ cutout
F1A with 4.13 pulley.
Th400 4k stall.

Curious to see what it puts down and the ET it'll hit.

You're going to make a lot of power, you'll need a good fuel system. Bob

I've got the nasty stage 3 dual Intank system so hopefully I'll be fine. I was kind of wanting to switch to E85 but idk.

Sounds like you got a really good deal from someone…. What injectors do you have? On 12psi with that blower and 80lb injectors with twin walbros I was at 95% dc on e85. If you are going to do e85 I would suggest going 120's or bigger.

I think the f1a is tapped out with the 3.7 from what I've been told? The 4.13 should make about 16-17 psi.

Nice upgrade. I have lots of fun with the 4.00" pulley on my D1SC, I can only imagine what a 3.4" pulley would do, or even an F series blower.

Enjoy.
