Good gawd, very nice guys!! Glad people are still trying to make an LT1 fast

 

There are a good number of pictures of this car on our website and on our myspace page. I have a few new ones i will upload on to this thread in a little while.

 

Congrats, I didn't see the 8.55 pass but i did see that 8.70 pass on Saturday. That car is making some awesome power to run 169.5mph!

 

Here are a couple of new pictures of this car at the Super Chevy event.

 

Why no LT1 front end? Seem slots of the fast guys do that...Rick, Sikora, You!

 

It looks funny without a spoiler on back, i'm sure the 169mph trap had everything to do with the removal though, lol.

You guys ever think to maybe tape up the holes on the front just to see what would happen for a run? Just the aerodynamics alone might be worth some extra mph. I know in Nascar they cover every last bit they possibly can except for cooling.

How much better is an LS1 front end over an LT1 front end at high speed?

 

the car has a joe van o wing carbon wing on the rear, that's why there's no spoiler. we havn't closed any of the holes on the front of the car since it's a turbo car and the motor needs as much air as it can get.

 

I put the ls1 front cap on the car only for the look.

 

and it looks purdy damn good if I do say so muhself

 

Car looks MUUUCH better, looks like it got a minitub and a good lowering job.

Bet that took some of the wheelie out of it!

Nice car.

Still wish you would have sold me that 408 when I had you on the hook LMAO.

 

Hey fastfatboy i was waiting on you to get the 408cid lt1 but the kid from tx beat you to it. I just want you guys know that madman racing co. Nick,matt,shay & my biggest weapond d.j put countless hours & alot of restless nights into big purple we still have a couple of things to do. We are going to try to make the ltx shootout i look foward to meeting all of you lt1 guys.

 

Alsome,


Do you mind sharing more info on the Motor / Turbo setup?

 

the turbo setup is a custom build by madman racing co. the motor is a lt1 with afr 227cc heads,jesel shaft mount rockers,carb intake,arizona speed throttle body,custom diamond pistons,oliver bullet rods,callies crank,& my engine builder converted my two bolt block to a four bolt that is just some of the parts that went into building this motor. roadtrip 120 i can pm you more info.

 

Awesome car, nice to see Madman still messing with fast force induced LT1 F-cars! Mike Mixon told me about your car a while back before you did this set up, sounds like you got a strong running car, be really cool to see it run at the LTX shoot out.

damn thats a laser beam

 

i know im bringing this back from the dead, but did i see an opti in there?

 

too bad you went with afr heads... you'd be running 7s already if you'd just run some Ai 200cc instead

anyways well done guys, i imagine the block is o ringed?

 

ahhh gravedigging! i didnt notice...

 

Doubt it, but the block might be

 

Good luck "clean'en"!!! Jesus!!!!!!!
