Thunder Racing CheaTR setup
its a great h/c setup that you could throw on and just forget about.
I almost went with it because i ahve emissions to worry about here in CA but that was before i blew up my stock motor and decided to get ready to go max efffort
Since the cam is spec'd with stock manifolds/exhaust in mind, would it essentially be better to choose a different cam from the CheaTR? Something that's designed around using longtubes?

I run a 224/222 117 LSA in my 370ci and it is Stealth, but packs 463rwhp/423rwtq

This should answer all questions...Pat don't know if you mind I post this up, but I think its good for the masses to see.
Unfortunately I was unnable to get that combo to pass strict emmissions and yearly test.
I wanted to put the car back on the street so I designed that cam around that criteria.
Combo:
K&N FIPK GenII
Stock MAF
80mm BBK (ported)
85mm LS6 intake (custom mouth, early TPIS prototype)
PRC 5.3L stage 2.5 (2.04/1.575 valves), custom VJ and bowl blend, 4.00 bore chambers, aftermarket intake seats), they were early version PRCs and had to be improved.
Cam 224/222 .604/.581 117+0 LSA, advanced +2 (XFI/XE-R)
GM MLS 6.0 gaskets
Mac midlength (custom modified/cleaned)
Custom catted y, Flowmaster merge, cutout, into 2.5 I into stock muffler.
FLT stage 5 4L60E, Vig 3800 stall, 3.23 gears.
12:1 SCR, 9 DCR runs on 94 octane, 24* max timing at WOT.
All in all, Super Stealth, free flow at flick of a switch, emmission compliant, very responsive throttle response, 400lbs of trq at 3400 rpm, shift points 6600.
Some of the parts I've had on it since 2001, would benefit from LTs, better heads etc... but the sum of all parts works well together.
Also 22>24mpg Hwy if I don't lean into it. (not that it matters gas is relatively cheap here $1.85/ gallon premium.
Once I complete my All bore 396 LSX, it will go back to drag in race weight form, shooting for 9s NA (but that is at leat 1 year away
)Sorry for semi
but it give an idea of Stealth setups. Last edited by PREDATOR-Z; Sep 3, 2009 at 08:21 AM.
