Default Lame question, I know...

... but what kind of power does it take to pick up the front wheels in a relatively stock weight LS1 F-Body with 4.10 gears, M6, and traction? I've been searching, but I can't seem to find any info.

I know it's kinda lame, but it's one of my goals, and I'm curious how far off it is.

Get some suspension components.

- Torque arm
- LCA's with relocation brackets
- QA1 shocks
- Remove front sway bar

Take weight off the front of the car.

- Run skinnies up front
- Relocate battery to the back
- Take off front bumper support
- Remove A/C

Have a rearend, clutch, driveshaft, and tire to handle a 6000+ rpm dump and you should be on your way
