As you can see, its not an 1995 LT1 anymore. I swapped in a 2000 LS1 with a Trick Flow 500 HP top end kit, Danatech ceramic coated headers, 80 mm throttle body and UMI performance cross member, with UMI upper and lower arms, and QA1 coil overs. And I modified the 4L60E, w/ stay and any gear shift kit plus 3000 stall, along with a host of other go fast goodies, plus redid the interior and fresh paint above and below. Had it tuned and made 370/375 ftlb/hp. at the rear wheels. That equates to just about 480 at the fyl wheel if your a calorie counter, just shy of the 500 hp advertise rating. Steve said I could have made it had I used racing gas. But this is a true daily driver. My plans were to put a thread in the hybrids/conversion forum but there are so many of them, I don't want to get shunned. Plus still getting my feet wet in posting. Its a true daily driver and it gets a lot of heads turning and thumbs up, even from the state troopers!

Nice 4th Gen! I like those dished ZR1s on that car. 
What cam? Stock LS1 intake? Trick flow heads with a decent cam should get you to and past 400rwhp with the right setup and supporting mods (Intake, injectors, etc).

Agreed on the above question, I would be bummed with 370rwhp with Trick Flow heads and cam.
Looks like an ls1 intake which would be a lot of the problem...ls6 or FAST intake would show considerable gains with those heads. Very clean car though!

The cam specs out at 220/224 @050 with 575/575 lift. Believe me we were trying to get to 400 wrhp but it just wasn't to be and settle with 375wrhp. Thats after 13 pulls on the dymo when the motor was super heat sinked, so we left it at that. I've put about 10 thousand miles since then (as a true daily driver) so I may go back and see if there will be an update. The car pulls extremely hard and anything below 40mph will break loose the 315's when you smass the go faster peddle.
Everything works on the car regarding creature comforts. (With the exception of cruise control because I haven't hooked up the cable 
). 'Will get to that later. ABS works, AC, power brakes, heat, power windows, etc. and on. the brakes are C5 12.8 in dia. up front and stock in the back. Slotted and cross drilled. Doing a conversion is difficult but doing a conversion with everything working is even a more of a challenge. (Note that the dates on the photos may be incorrect.)
