is there a forumula for LT1s hitting 350 whp
Hey guys, I am new to the LT1s and before i start modding my car, I wanted to explore all the modifications there can be.
My Goal for the time being is to try and get 350 WHP or a mid 12 second car *yes i know about slicks and ill be getting a 3600 stall so besides those*
Curious what the other LT1 guys have done so i can plan out what i need to search for and buy.
crap i spelled formula wrong haha

I highly recommend Lloyd, his LE1 head/cam package would get you there with ease. If you wanted to go the boly on route you could probably get there with long tube headers, a good flowing exhaust, cold air intake, and a good mild cam such as a hot cam, CC305, or any other grind along the lines of a 22X/23X duration would probably get you there.

I've been doing this research myself. Using different sources online (especially www.ws6.com ) , I've been looking into a formula for reaching high hp on a budget.
I have a bit to start off with since the original owner of the engine I purchased made 305rwhp without a tune (he ran 12.67 untuned as well). But if you use sources like that and even the dyno sticky on this forum, you can get a rough idea of what you should do. PM me if you're curious on what's done to my engine and what I've estimated on doing... especially since I'm on a loose budget.
The search function on here can be your most useful tool too!

Yup bolt ons and a small dry shot and you'd make that ALL DAY.... Shiet I made 420RWHP and an assload of torque (like 585 RWTQ) on a dry NOS 150 shot with a stock throttle body and stock 1.5 rockers..... Bolt ons I had was flowmaster cat back, MAC shorties, CAI, MSD 6A box, Nology coil, and some suspension and chassis stuff like a better clutch and ****....
350RWHP could be done NA if you had all the bolt ons and a kickass tune.... it might take a cam but then again if you're gonna do that do heads/cam/manifold and a 52/58mm throttle body and shoot for 400-425 RWHP....

350rwhp aint going to happen NA on a stock motor, with a big cam maybe. 400-425rwhp NA with just heads and cam is going to suck to actually drive in most cases would take a very well matched combo and VERY good tuner to be truely drivable.
