I bought the car and was happy stock. Thought Id keep it that way. That lasted about a month b/c I wanted a cat-back for the "sound". From there I had to Lower the thing and swap for prettier slotted rotors. Then my only option was to upgrade to LT's. Which was good for a month or 2. Now its time for a cam. I "think" Ill be happy with 380-390whp. Now Im just savin for the supporting mods like WB and HPT. Then when I figure that out I need that cam....

I've had 420 rwph for 4 years and I love it. Recently I've been woorying about getting as much out of my current setup as possible on drag radials and finally got to the track with pretty good weather and ran 11.555. That made me very happy. Now I want to add heads and a 90 mm intake and near the 500 rwhp mark and hit 10s NA fully street drivable. After that I'll probably spray it and go for low 10s and maybe even a high 9. Once I get to that point though, I really don't know how I'll feel. Hopefully by that point I'll be able to afford another project and maybe build something with forced induction. I'd probably be scared to go faster than mid-high 9s.
That's not even a number...........yet.

I'm shooting for a mild cam and heads set-up on my LS1. With bolt-ons, new rear and some suspension work. Hoping to make atleast 425 to the wheels. Then possibly a 100 shot.
