Its a 355 LT1 with stock crank and rods, TRW Forged Pistons, Total Seal rings. LT4 heads with 2.02/1.60 valves and bowl work. Stock LT4 intake and the HOT cam.
BMR PHR/SFC, Spohn LCAs and TA. Hooker LTs w/Duals, aerochambers turned down under the car. TH350 and Vig 3500 TC and 3.73 in stock 10bolt. CSI EWP, K&N CAI. (I think that is about it)Car is about 3450 in race trim. Nothing real special about the car....Just glad it finally ran 11.9s on motor and was only expecting 11.2s on spray. There is alot more in the car. I was using 28X11.5s on the hose and think those tires are too big for the car, i dont hit them hard enough like a M6 or T-brake launch would. So i need to try some thinner tires. maybe even some shorter ones....

If I left anything out, it was not on purpose. I have no secrets on this car....You can check out www.gafba.com and look under members for my name and get the same info.
