If I had to take a guess, with a good tune, and the only thing holding you back being the LS1 intake...around 450rwhp+

From that list it sounds like it ought to be a beast, I vote for videos!

Wow, your cam is WAY too big!!! Its not even in the ballpark.....

Titanium pushrods and springs???? SWEET!!....

Dyno numbers depend on the dyno since they are all different...

A FAST would wake it up a ton, especially the new 102mm FAST LSXR. I would still swap the cam.

It also desperatly needs injectors.....

Seems about right. FAST 90/90 setup and bigger injectors you would see 450HP and low 11's with DR's.

That is a local car. It runs great and i believe he had a PB of 11.7 or 11.8 or so. It needs a retune and just a few things to be a beast.

Please be careful with this car... I almost bought it and spoke to him and he wasn't exactly the most forthcoming with the details on it. It had a massive leak from the rear main seal, which last I heard from him he was still working on replacing. While that's not a deal breaker, there's no telling how low on oil that car got before he caught it....

accidentally deleted my post... anyways...

how much was he asking for it, and the mileage? if that seal is still leaking & you're really interested in buying it then you should get a quote from a shop to have it changed professionally. then you could offer him the asking price minus the quote, if you wanted.

if it was dyno-tuned I'd expect anywhere from 385-415 rwhp depending on the dyno. keep in mind it's an automatic so it's not going to be a dyno queen as some others are saying 450+ upgraded to a better intake, maybe on a m6 car. 450 is very possible though with those mods & a fast 90 & 1 7/8" headers on a dynojet.

You can leave. he is not a scammer so thanks for your valued opinion. These cars have low oil lights so it couldn't have got to low. He will tell you what you need to know about it. The car was sold guy picked it up then there was a problem with the bank so he was forced to pick it back up, he had already purchased another car so needs to sell this one in a hurry. I will direct him to this thread.

it must roll out pretty good a previous post said his best was like a 11.7 11.8 Someone must have seen him run it. I know hp #s will be lower with the auto but the auto dosnt miss gears either lol
