Save you money. Buy a Turbo system. Blow your 10 Bolt. Buy an MWC 9". Have fun.

 

Thank you so much! This is great help! thank all of you! especially Raysadude!posting pics tomorrow and then going to post more after car is done! thoughts on a strut tower brace?

 

For the most part a strut tower brace is aesthetic. Some people swear by them, some disregard them. I've driven with mine on and off and I can't really tell a difference taking roundabouts in the 40 mph range. They're a pain to work around or take off almost any time you need to do something.

That being said, I'd never remove mine permanently. There's just something about it.

 

I ordered my strut tower brace and long tube headers. Now i need to find my LS6 intake manifold and find a place to port my stock throttle body.

 

Buy one used here or google shaner S3 ported tb. What long tube did you end up getting?

 

dynatech superMAXX longtube

 

For $800 you can get ARH if I'm not mistaken.

 

Aftermarket rearend with 4.10s/ 4.11s for a strong foundation to build on. And even without added horsepower the gears will make your car a blast to drive.

 

It'll need tune if he install the gears otherwise his speedo will be off I think.

 

Whats ARH? lol

Okay so here is the deal. Talked to a ol buddy of mine. He now owns a tuning shop in Manhattan kansas. I get all parts for 40% price! and work is for free! he has a dyno machine in the shop along with a airlift. Im getting the following for under 3K. Longtube headers, cam, heads, manifold intake, big mouth throttle body, 4.11 gears, LS9 clutch, and strut tower brace. Any other parts i could need?? thoughts?

 

American racing headers, one of the best headers. If I could afford ARH I'd buy one over any lt headers out there.

 

If you can get those parts for 3k I'd consider it a good deal. Since you're buying brand new parts. What heads and cam and what kind of intake manifold btw?

 

he has diablo

 

Oh didn't pay attention to it. My bad

 

I have a LS6 intake I'll sale you if you're interested. You'll need to reuse the evap canister/sensor from your LS1 because I took it off the LS6 to reuse with my FAST intake.

 

give me some ideas for cams and heads! and ya its a good deal! i wanna dyno it even if i have diablo!

 

Is this car your daily driver?

 

Its my daily driver but i wash it often so she says shiny. lol

 

I'd message PatG about the cam. For heads, AI ported 243's are good, but if you're saving tons of money look some different PRC models.

 

Yeah I second that notion, msg patG he'll hook u up with bad *** EPS cam.
