I love my car, but hate the IRS in these things. People want to use other cars with IRS to show what can be done with an IRS, but newer cars and corvettes have a far superior IRS to these GTO's. The next thing I want to do is put a cheap, but not junk yard forged short block in it and push this D1x. After that I'll decide if I'm happy with it or want to get more serious about ET. If I decide to get serious about ET I'll sell all my drive shaft shop and gforce driveline and get this... http://shop.brutespeed.com/Moser-M9H...er-M9HPGTO.htm

No need to forge a block for a D1, it cant make enough power to hurt Gen 4 internals lol

I cant see that rear swap ever being worth it, for that money you could buy a nice Fox roller and be significantly faster.

I have an ls1 many say it’s a gen 3.5 with gen 4 rods, but press fit pins. I don’t know because I haven’t opened it up. I refuse to run a Fox body too many of them local and I like to be different. Not everyone’s goals are the same.

It will have a 4” pulley on it before I get the chance to run it again.

I’d really like to see what Kfxguy runs because we have no idea what it traps or dynos at this point.

You and me both. as soon as i can get to the track, i will. only thing i can compare it to is i ran a new 2018 10 speed auto mustang when i first got it running. we ran from a roll. i was on 4lbs boost and running real rich at 10.8....i pulled him in third gear. those cars trap 118-119 stock. so theres that. and i now and on 9-10lbs. and 11.7ish afr. its a good bit faster.....needless to say. I'd go to the track this sunday if the wife wasnt having family over for a get together.
