Meth pump location
What was your power before boost? Stockish cam and stock heads? I was looking at my logs and on a short pull from a sub optimal rpm for the CAM, it went from 60-80mph in 1.5 seconds on an uphill drive with no wheel spin… this combo is surprisingly VERY trackable seeing as the cam makes peak torque in the upper 4K rpm but still holds its own downlow. I’d highly suggest it. Now my possible Frankensteined blower may be part of the deal, but I see no noticeable issue running a NA max effort cam with boost. In fact, it seems to really hook well, allowing the car to squat down at 3k and by the time the torque spike comes in it’s planted and rolling.
On the one end though, how are you all dealing with the procharger inlet hat? Mine popped the rubber hose off on the inlet hat side. I am wondering if the engine isn’t torquing up and it’s pushing on the frame. Maybe rotate the inlet hat down a hair? Procharger’s inlet hat sucks ***. It’s not a good design for sealing. The end of it has a slight concave in it so a hose clamp doesn’t squeeze it very tight. I’ve grabbed an assortment of t bolt clamps from work to test out for the sizing as I popped the charge pipe off the driver side intercooler. Stuck it back with 2 hose clamps but would like something better..

Sounds like your combo is doing well I wouldn’t hesitate to spin it 6500 as long as the tune is good and with that amount of meth it should be fine.
Oh no I mean what was done to the SBE LS1 that held 14psi?
119 in the 1/8th. Holy fawk. Lol that’s what some run in the 1/4.
definitely hauling in that thing lol. Streetcar? AC and all? I’m guessing at 3900lbs it isn’t a gutted deal. Definitely nice setup.

I decided to quit while I was ahead and bought a 6.2 377 short block from TSP. Been very happy with this combo. Cam is 232/248 .62x .6xx 116 +5.
Its “maybe” 3800 with me in it that’s a guess based upon what it started as and what I removed plus the weight of the Procharger Full interior, but no ac and some other minor weight reduction. 15” wheels with skinnies up front also.
In the process of putting a cage and racing seats in it so I can race again. Probably going to end up a race car now lol. I plan to keep it streetable, but definitely isn’t going to be a daily driver.
Look at that pretty engine bay lol. Mine still needs dressed up. What kind of time and what gears were you running when you were cam +boosted ls1? I’m definitely going to need to have the third member re geared for this combo. I’ll definitely be out of gear in the 1/4 as I was close with the NA setup spinning it higher than I plan on now.

Damn a stock 4l60 held that? My bolt on old LT1 car with a 3k stall even broke one of those lmfao. Seems I’d be okay if I wanted to run in the 1/8ths. But 6 speed car so it’s had 4.11s in it forever now..
For sure you’re going to want a gear change.

Verdad Gallardo Yea lol I don’t think so until I get a new motor. I’m surprised it ain’t **** the bed already. Just gotta get the tune dialed in. Having bad data on the decel. Sometimes it’s rich and sometimes it’s lean. Probably all those exhaust leaks LOL
