Pics of the above mentioned "babies momma?" Still working on getting it tuned in, but it's one of those 1000Hp monsters(hopefully). The only indication I have of HP now is a 98%DC on 95# injectors, and a maxed out A1000 fuel pump(having to add a second one for 15+psi boost. The setup is now configured for 24#boost.

I love the conversion. Being able to use HP Tuners has made the conversion worth EVERY penny(true 3 bar tune with real time tuning). Another plus of the conversion for me was, my car is a 99 that "had" an LS1 in it, so it made the swap a snap, nothing else in the cars electrical system had to be worked out. Prices:
$525 24X conversion
$800 Custom built wiring harness(EFI connection)
$50 used ECU
$75 used coils
$50 Used front cover(96-97)
$650 HP Tuners Pro
