Default Special thanks to Mike at Next Level Performance

He car got my car done way sooner than I thought.

I haven't driven this car in a while, it was nice to take the T Tops off and just go cruising around again.

new setup is forged block Callies Rods/Diamond Pistons 9.3:1 compression
and I added a cam 224/230 on a 115. Now my car has a little shake to it

Gotta put some miles on her and get her tuned.

more mods to come, looks like I gotta concentrate on suspension now.

Jeff did around 575 RWHP on his first setup with a G trim and a stock bottom end. Then he forged it and it did something like 559 rwhp. I think he is only seeing about 7 pounds on the G trim with the smallest pulley they make. But he and I are redoing our fuel system to make more power.

Nice, I'd like to see some 600rwhp pump gas Vortech cars, though I think you guys might need to do T-Trim at some point.

Ya he is Because he had a T trim for sale for a smoking deal. I was going to buy it but, he decided to keep it and put it on the car and get rid of the G trim.

Yeah I am curently waiting on parts to finish my last round of mods for the G-trim with all the stuff I think I should be over 600, but I don't want to say anything until I'm done. The T-trim is and has been an option and so is the YSI I just haven't decided on a turbo setup or just a bigger supercharger so I will make up my mind is a month or two. Let us hear your new numbers GMS (Jeff) when you get her broke in. THe racetronix will work with a Boosta pump if you didn't already know. JM-I have talked to 30th guy before I have his number cause he doesn't ever have time to visit the board since he opened up a shop. He is a nice guy and was real helpful with a few questions a long time ago.

Jeff is running out of fuel at his present RWHP with the BAP maxed out. Thats why he is going with a dual intank like many others here. I am doing the same. I hear ya on being broke. I just bought a bunch of fuel stuff and now my daily driver broke Oh well it never ends

Don't know if he has run his T-trim yet last I talked ot him he hasn't had time to work on it with his own shop etc... GMS- I think anything over 550rwhp will require it for sure. Good luck you will need at least 55# injectors. Good luck Jeff!

I have a friend that has a set of 50's, I'd like to see 550, if not I'll save up to get some 60's and then get a smaller pulley and go for more.

NLP's dyno is known as the humbler so if I make that kind of power on his dynojet I'll be real happy. I have to put another 400 miles on her, not this weekend but next I'll take her in to get tuned.

I'll be revving this sucka to at least 6500 now, what do you think the 2.95 pulley is good for boost wise?
