Default Twin T fly by

http://www.ls1speed.com/movies/jimmay.WMV

info from the owner.

"recently finished building a twin turbo system for my car.

Turbos are Innovative GT61's, P-trim .69 a/r on center, mounted low on either side of the block. Tubular motor mounts gave me room for induction. I had to notch the stock K-frame for compressor housing clearance. Headers are tubular, non-equal length 1 5/8 primarys.

I had Griffin build me 2 intercoolers which mount vertically in front of each tire. The are a bit small for the task, but I wanted to re-install my bumper support, so I used what room I had. IAT's start out a 70 and rise to 125 at the end of the run, but I think they will do better on the road with more airflow to them.

Engine is untouched since the last setup. It was still running great so I didn't even bother to freshen it up. 357ci, 9.2-1 compression, 224/224 113lsa cam.

With a mix of 93 and Torco 110. (about 75% 110), a very conservative tune (21 degrees timing, 10.8-11.0 a/f) and 19lbs of boost, it made-

868 rwhp 832 rwtq

I'm happy with the results The car is still nice to drive, has all accessories including A/C, and is absolutely INSANE on the street. "

Thats INTMD8s LT1, that car is friggin clean as hell. Kinda shows you can still make awesome power with an LT1 car. The motor is any thing exotic, the car just has a well thought set up, its only 357CID.

Kinda funny how it says 01 LT1 block....in the pics it has a factory LT4 Intake manifold
