Default LS1 F-BODY LPE TT :)

I called LPE about LS6 heads. For no reason, I just asked if they had any plans for a TT for the F-BODY. They said (Josh) "we have one that is laying down here!!!" He also said "no one knows about it yet, and it is just like the kit that comes on the C5, same quality and performance and all."

I asked if I could post this, he said, “it had been a secret, but go ahead!"

Now a 720 TT SS is something very nice!!!

Very very sweet... now the question... will it be closer in price to the defunct incon twin or the LPE C5 twin setup...

They have made at least 4 f-body kits as of a year ago, probably quite a few more by now. Most of the parts were from the Incon kit.

Stage 1: $4500
Stage 2: $5500 (Stage 1 plus engine management unit, fuel supply items)
Stage 3: $7000 (Stage 2 plus injectors, rails, plumbing and intake manifold)

This was the original setup, but the stage 2 components were junk, and I don't think I've ever seen or heard of anyone with an incon intake manifold from the stage 3.... Regardless, I like to do things myself so all I was ever interested in was the stage 1....

I was told by LPE $25000 drive in and out! They will do all mods and engine upgrades! heads, cam, TT kit, etc. I think they will change the crank too, but I am not sure. Also, it had a 2 year 24000 miles warranty! All for $25000.

But if you have some of the stuff installed already the price will come down!

I had a conversation with Ed Potter about this. $25k should include a 383 stroker motor + the TT, instalation and tuning. If I had the scratch to spare I would do it. Lets see how this year goes.

I will call again and see what could I save if I had the 383 (well, I do <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> ). I think they will have to change the H/D.
