Description:

build thread here:

https://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-in...2k-thread.html

built this car over the last year with the goal of running 9's with an 8k budget. Quickly spiraled out of control financially of course, as is my style. Got a couple other projects picking up steam and I can't keep 'em all.

Holley Terminator X Max ECU
VSR cast wheel s475/83
big honkin' treadstone a2a IC
3" cold side
LS6 intake
SBE gen 4 rodded/24x crank 4.8 with new rings and cam bearings.
853 heads with PSI 1511ML springs and upgraded trunnions. TSP hardened pushrods.
2 walbro 450's in the tank, -8 wye'd to billet rails and then to a regulated return
Hooker/Holley 8510HKR turbo manifolds
4" stainless bumper dump with a manually operated loudvalve and a 2.5" wye to a summit stainless turbo muffler under the car.
80e with an HD2 shift kit
GMPP 19299807 single billet, actual stall is ~ 4000
10 point mild steel cage with swing outs
8.8 rear 31 spline motive gear axles 3.73 gears, trac lok
adjustable upper and lower arms
adjustable anti-roll bar
SA qa1's in the back
currently on some corvette rally reps with '52 police caps

paint is a 3/10 with a lot of sun-checking, scratches, dings and dents.

all in all it's a very good start to something special. I have neither the time nor money to finish it out.

in my mind the car gets a quality respray, a vintage air a/c kit and someone who can make it hook on radials (or a much better prepped track than my local skating rink) and it's a reliable high 9/low 10 grocery getter.

I am not looking for trades, thank you.
