Where in Illinois? Welcome to the site, I am by Chicago. You might want to get that gt500 out from under your user name, people might start bashing you a little, remember this is an ls1 site.

Should be making around 550rwhp. Thats with a 302, and a B&G kit with a 70mm turbo. Why, do you want to do something with that lt1?
