Josh - Yep, that's him! What'd he run N/A?

Mike - Damn, he's gotten serious with the car! I still think he should let me make a pass in it for old times sake. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Are you going to get to make a N2O pass in it? What's it tipping the scales at now? What kind of ET is expected N/A and with the nitrous once the "new" setup is done?

The owner has decided to remove all N2O and see how fast we can make it N/A. I really can't predict what the car will run N/A because we haven't weighed it yet.

How many All bores have MTI done..? What is the avg rwhp Tony...?

AJH LS1 Z28

DAMN TONY!!.. my graph looks good up there.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

It is a BLAST now.. I just couldn't stand the A4 anymore.. (TM, Shift Points, DRIVETRAIN LOSS) I wanted my power back and I found it.. It was lost in a T56 somewhere..

Thanks MTI-JAYSON-MIKE!! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

But I still can't do this.. <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />

Vince, I'd guess that MTI has built about 10 all-bore setups by now. All 382ci, but with varying cams and/or LS1/LS6 heads. Some of the owners also prefer stock exhaust (yes, manifolds and all) while some go all-out.

Probably not enough solid data that compares to give you an "average".

I'd expect at least 440 rwhp with LS1 heads and a decent cam. Probably closer to 460+ minimum with LS6 heads.

Anthony, when you grenade that rearend, slap a 12-bolt in it. Then get some slicks, you won't regret it! We can convert you to a track ***** if you ever feel an M6 launch hard. Its addicting

Here is a picture of Anthony's Z. He really needs to get some better pictures that show those FM-5s off better, with a nice background. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Thanks Tone... I will start saving for Thelma's azz.. but for right now.. it is a BLAST!!!

BurnOut

iTrader: (1)

I'll tell ya'll what's been keeping me up at night... the idea of an all-bore 392 (4.155" bore, stock crank). Add in a good set of rods, some worked 6.0L heads and a set of mildly dished pistons and bring the boost, baby!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Methinks that'd be one SERIOUSLY stout ride. Hell, if ATI is pulling 500+ RWHP out of relatively stock LS1's, I figure 600 RWHP is a pretty realistic goal for that 392.

But then again, I ate a lot of paint chips when I was a kid, so draw your own conclusions... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

That is a great Avg Tony. Most buyers are like me and want to keep the car docile if possible, but want to be able to lay the smack down if need be. You guys keep up the good work. We are watching.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Kinda surprised me, as I thought the pistons, rings, bolts, gaskets, etc. would total $1500, for a parts price of $3000. Then maybe a grand for assembly, so I expected $4000 for the shortblock.

Maybe MTI is doing aftermarket con-rods in the all-bore motors now? I didn't ask Jayson, because between the $5500 short block, and $4500 for stage 3 LS6 heads, it's gonna cost a bit more than I'm willing to spend <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Heads and cam (but not $4500 heads <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" /> ) is more my price range.

Miles, MTI uses custom billet rods on the all-bores now. My old motor was the only one ever built with the stock rods since it was experimental at the time.

Go ahead and add about $850 in parts for those.

I guess I need to buy into a shop so I can play with the cool toys like Mike <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> , it would be so much fun to feed the addiction with someone elses money <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
