We want more, if you post these threads prepare to get post raped by us fellow LS1er's

Those pistons caught my eye too, but that blower looks hella cool as well

Damn I love that car too, wish I could afford a Vette and FI but had to pick one

Now get that beotch done and straped down good on the dyno since it will most likely spin

What are your goals? We want some info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we need to do some more tuning to it which we are goin to take care of of friday. Then we need to break in the clutch and diff then it will hit the dyno. Its still on a big pulley right now until we figure out what boost its making and get it dialed in as is then its getting CRANKED UP!!!

Goals are 1k on True Pump Gas.... and this car will be practically daily driven.... my tech is crazy haha he will drive this thing in the snow. and im not lieing.
