Hawks LT for 3rd Gen Conversion (Longshot for this exact setup)
http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/in...OD&ProdID=1341


So, who is running this setup and/or who can tell me what to expect outta this setup.

3rd gen ls1 conversion. T-56 planned (Not sure exactly which one yet though) from http://www.standardtransmission.com/BW_T-56.html

And...I'm not sure about rear end setup yet. Everything else is going to be conversion parts, pretty much, and cosmetic. I know about the wiring harness, ecm, and tuning. The tune is the next big hurdle since I'm changing so much.

Engine:
Stock 2004 LS1 longblock. (Anyone wanna take my stock heads and cam off me, that'd be great?) This motor is untouched except for getting it on the stand.

Just curious about what to expect from this combination. I like the lope of a big cam but I'm not 100% sure that this cam/heads package is for me.

My goals for the car are:
1. Minor track use. I wanna run it to know where it stands but not too much more than that. Otherwise, weekends and sleeping in the garage.
2. No steroids. I want a naturally aspirated build.
3. As much as possible, I'd like to leave the internals alone. I'm also doing a 3rd gen conversion and don't wanna throw a ton of money into the motor. Also, this is my first build. So lack of knowledge has to come into play.
4. I want it to sound a lot like this:

It doesn't necessarily have to sound exactly like that but I think that car sounds bad ***!!
5. 400 and up RWHP and comparable RWTQ. I know I'm gonna want/need subframe connectors to keep from twisting my frame. I don't really know how hungry for speed though. I do know that I want to change my heads/cam, timing chain, and oil pump while the motor is out of the car.


Any thoughts or ideas are welcome.

Thank You,
AJ

 

Bump - Nobody?? Nothing similar?

 

i guess i have something a little close to what you are doing

 

How far away are you from startup? You're still working on your swap right?

 

The valves may possibly hit the pistons with that cam and those heads. Stage 2 have bigger valves then stock. The MS4 was made to be the biggest cam that wouldn't require you to cut valve reliefs in the pistons as long as you used stock heads. i may be wrong but you might want to double check this.

 

You will definately want to ditch that 10 bolt. Those headers from hawks are Very nice you wont regret them. If you are going to be doing suspension Spohn makes some great stuff, and with that setup Im sure you would like that power to stick to the ground.
Not sure about that H/C setup, I've got some Livernois waiting to go on when I get back from Iraq though
