UPDATE:
The car never made it for track testing. The trans ( built, non lock up 4L60E) took a dump from test runs in the back roads. I'm done with 4L60E. Looking into a built TH400 with a transbrake, new stall, driveshaft, trans cross member, and shifter. This build never ends, do they?LOL.

FLT. It needs to be upgraded to their level 7. I think this combo would benefit with a trans with a manual valve body and not shifted electronically.
Thanks. No regrets.
Thanks man. All it took was good planning, plenty of time and patience.

I believe if I can recall, I sent him my stock LT1 heads for his LE2 porting with the exception of using lightweight LS1 valves. He also ported the intake and open them for 58mm throttle body, cam was in the 240's @.050---sounded nasty. It made only 413 rwhp, and thats with the stock bottom end. Check out the youtube vid on my sig, that was the old LT1.

UPDATE:
Proformance TH400 RMVB w/T-Brake, PTC 8" converter, Strange chromoly driveshaft and Hurst pistol grip shifter installed. But much too late to make some runs here in Chicago. Temps are in the teens and snowing. Longing for Spring to come,lol.

I was looking into an airpan setup, but planned on running a drop filter base to clear my 3" cowl. I have a supervic though so it sits pretty high, like 1/8" taller than a MAST...and I want to keep at least the driver wiper - since, ya know, street car and all that
. Pretty sure I read somewhere that the LT1 has more room at the cowl than the LS does with a single plane? Thread Starter

Badass. What airpan and filter is that? Think it will flow enough for that big motor?

Nice set up, now you are making me sick... looks like I need to get off my *** and get back to the Formula. But this weather sucks for working in the barn. Looking forward to some results.

I will most likely always have an LT1 for a drag car, but my next DD will be either LS6 or LS3...still undecided 
. I like the LS3 more obviously, but I prefer the C5Z body to the C6 LS3...decisions, decisions!
