I have a 388 lt1 forged bottom end and using a flat top forged piston built for nitrous. Im also using AFR 210 heads that were also max ported. Lt4 intake and LT headers, bullet, dump. Backed by a th400 trans and a 4.10 gear on 28s.
I will be using a 250 shot minimum and would like to know what the hardcore guys recommend for this setup!

What converter should be used?
What cam specs if any? I would like to be HR still
What size throttle body?
anyone with a similar setup to this?

This will be on a stock pcm and im looking to take it all the way to 7000 rpm. SO I need my parts to match, thanks guys

strip only or street too?

What are you lookin for in the car? Are you lookin to make the most power you can outta the motor or just somethin thats an animal on the spray.?
Direct Port is the way to go in your case. If you got the money I would highly suggest you give Nitrous Outlet a call. I am very similar to the setup your lookin for so if you want to know mine shoot me a PM. However mine is a 6 speed car. If I had a Th400 and it was only a track car I would go 3800-4000 stall if it is a full weight car. If you are gonna drive it on the street 3200-3400 stall. The stock PCM will only go to 7000. If you want a HR camshaft thats all you need with your current intake.
I occasionly drive mine on the street with a 247/258 108 LSA .606 HR. I have 230cc Trickflows that have been worked. Car made decent power on motor right about where I wanted and on the spray was a monster

How much converter are you willing to run, and how streetable does it need to be? Stock valves? Head CCs? Compression? Car weight?

[QUOTE=BADMOON;14047905]What are you lookin for in the car? Are you lookin to make the most power you can outta the motor or just somethin thats an animal on the spray.? Definitely both, but more on spray of course. The better it is N/A it will wake up insanely on spray.

Yes I am familiar with your thread but I dont know what you have or what it made power wise! Pm me with specs and/or dyno/track time?

Stock intake will suffice, so thats good. Im looking into getting a cam with these specs. SOmething close to a old setup I had when I was running a sbc with similar specs to the lt1. 242/250 .612/.612 110 LSA cam with a 7k rpm shift point.

under 3100 with me in it.
Head cc is at 67 right now but will mill them if need be. Compression with a 67cc head will be 11.26 with a .026 gasket.
As for converter I dont really mind as long as she can stump pull

For the cam I would suggest Bullet racing, they can spec you one just like you need. You'll need to contact a converter company and tell them your specs and plans, then they can build you a custon converter, but before you get the converter I would seriously suggest ditching the TH-400 and getting a powerglide you won't regret it.

If you're looking for a strip N20 setup, I'd go 246/258 on a 108+4. If you want a more street oriented setup, a 242/252 on a 107+2. More N/A I'd do a 244/252 on a 105 straight up. These are going to need a pretty healthy converter, nothing below 4500.

BADMOON

I would say thats right on the money what I would go with and what I was recommended to go with on the camshaft. I would not wanna drive anything over a 3800 stall around on the street though especially with a TH400.

You ever get your valvespring issue sorted out ?

Call LE and tell him what you got and what you will do with it, he can point you into the right direction for a cam.

[QUOTE=robsquikz28;14049016]Lloyd Elliott recommended me those specs for my setup

same as above, also he told me with a 3600-4000 stall for the streetability

Looks like a good cam to me, I'd lower the LSA a bit to make it peak a bit more if you are mostly track oriented... but if you are keeping the stall that low (3600) I'd leave the LSA as is.

you have no idea what you're talking about, find another thread to speculate in.

Ok guys, then tell us all what lowering the LSA would do? It's an incomplete story anyway.

IN GENERAL, lowering LSA will narrow the powerband and raise the peak slightly.
IN GENERAL, raising the LSA will broaden the powerband and lower the peak slightly.

So show me different.

This is hilarious, because you spec'd him 3 cams that were nearly identical to the one he said with a tighter LSA. So it seems we agree. So I guess if I'm wrong then you're wrong and you are now stupider for disagreeing with me since we both saying the same thing. Good god you guys are stupid. Jesus ******* christ.

I guess your 2 degrees of duration change will alter the gravitational pull and therefore make your suggestion that much more informed?

Lower LSA, high stall. check.

HAA lswho must not be liked huh?

I can either go with that cam or I can go solid roller and get a larger cam. But how much of a power difference can I make going to solid?

HOws the cam that was chosen to me by LE?
