So here is the plan

ENGINE:
TMS 408/L92 heads
23x/24x .60x .60x cam
Ls3 intake/90mm TB
FTRA setup

TRANSMISSION:
LVL 5-6 rpm 4l60e
Circle D 4200 Triple disc stall

OTHER:
Weld Rts wheels
Skinny fronts/28" rear
No A/C
No spare.

I'm thinking this should be a solid 10 second car what about you? Will run N/A for quite a while and then plan to hit it with a 100 shot or so.
Another big goal of mine is to also pull the wheels. Any reason I shouldn't be able to do that with this setup N/A?

 

Should at least run a high 10 easily. Weight wasn't mentioned and rear gear ratio....

 

Not sure iron block will add a little weight, but the car has the light weld rts wheels and removing a/c should help. I wouldn't think it would be anymore then 50lbs more then a stock 98 ss.

 

I think it should hit high 10's with a really great launch

 

I should have the stall/tire for a great launch. Will see if the 10-bolt will give me some good 60fts before it goes lol

 

I also think a high 10 is doable, depends on the launch.

 

10's should be doable with that setup.

 

Your combo should get you to your goal. Optimized suspension and weight reduction for proper weight transfer should be no problem pulling the front wheels off the ground during launch. Check out the vids on my sig, and thats with just a teeny weeny stock bottom end LT1,lol.

 

Very nice! What size stall? I probably won't have all the suspension worked out for awhile. Just looking to get the thing back together running good to start. Through the year hopefully I will get everything setup good.

 

I don't see why tens wouldn't be a relatively easy goal with that set up. I'm going to try and squeak a 10.9x out of my SBE 346 this year banging gears

 

With the old LT1, I was experimenting with what it likes. In the video, I was running a built non lock up 4L60E with a 5500 8" converter. It was a night and day difference from a 4000 stall that I had ran previous.

 

I will probably go with as big of converter as I can that will alow me to be efficient up top and hold up to a 150 hit. Btw your new setup should be insane!

 

try hitting up 01ssreda4. He runs a very fast auto /10-bolt car. Probably give you some pointers to go farther than 72' down the track.

 

He has a lot of $ in weight reduction which is not the direction on plan to take. The 10-bolt is just on borrowed time. I have had some luck with them but my last f-body I broke the hell out of one lol. It would be cool to pull the wheels, but at the end of the day if it 60ft's/ET's/MPH's where I want it to I'll be epretty happy. With my tire/stall goals I would say it should be a pretty hard car to beat launching on the street.

 

gotcha. So you're doing what I am which is riding her till she bucks? Interested to see your final numbers.

 

Yep when it goes I'll probably throw an s60 in there

 

Btw I have all the accessories off my ls1 and the valve covera off a 5.3 what all needs to be done to make them fit with the 408 and l92 heads? I know the windage tray needs spaced down. Do I need to modify anything else like valve covers?

 

Are you trying to hit 10s before the spray?

 

Yea goals are 10's N/A

 

Do you have any dyno #s from an engine dyno? My goal is 10s also. I have an ls 403 with l92 cnc'd ls3 heads but I'm running a th350 and 3500 stall so I'm just curious.
