.625 .627 lift 1.7 rocker
108 LSA
the heads are fully ported and polished stock ls1 heads off 99 camaro,I have cut the spring pockets for coventional style 1.430" springs,titanium retainers and keepers,harland sharp non adjustable 1.7 rockers,fast intake with throttle body,MSD coil packs,msd wires,ngk plugs,QTP Heads..Also the crank in addition to being hard chromed,it was microblued as well as cam bearings rod bearings main bearings and the camshaft itself..

This is going in a 98 camaro,complete tubular front suspension,lightweight drag brakes,alston rear suspension,moser 9 inch 4.50 gear,29" tires,mini tubbed,rebuilt t-56...

HP=??? 1/4= fast Make sure to get a good tune. Forking up the money for a good dyno tune would really be worth it, and you'd know exactly what youre making. Keep us updated as you go.
