I already tried to buy a TB spacer and they don't make one for the LT1. I also would think cold air would give you closer to 20HP.

well your starting with maybe 270 to the wheels not 310. those mods you may touch around 300whp

Ok I dont have a fast car lol but I do have a 97 SS. LT headers, air intake, 52mm TB, Performance wires and new plugs, ditch the cats, MAF descreen, this is what I recommend doing first. As for the TB bypass dont waste your money on that cheap a$$ kit. Just take the hose of the TB and route it to the other side and cap on the line. Its a free mod as well as the MAF descreen. OH YEAH and get some new gears for that thing.

Depends on the cam used. Mild heads/cam combos produce between 360 to 380rwhp. Or we can just resort to, DYNO WARS! THIS SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!
