If you pause it when i get close to the screen you can see the numbers...lt Was a 365Rwhp and 364lbs ft torque.

Check out my... (Couldnt be more happy with my Trans Am), Thread for vids of me roll racing vs a Cammed tuned Full bolt on Saleen and full bolt on Z28.

I ran a best time of 12.9 in the quarter, with very humid weather and slippery street tires. Crappy 2.0 60 Footer.

Stock tranny/converter

Shorty headers and stock y pipe holding me back alot. But happy either way...

What brand cutouts you guys running? Going to get some 3" ones to splice into the exhaust on my 71 nova that I'm putting the 6.0l into.
Still have the header back 3" duals into flowmaster 40 series dumped in front of the axle that was behind the built 327, definetely got tons of looks rolling through parking lots with how the exhaust was and the big cam it had. Thinking about putting some quieter mufflers on with the cutouts before them after the swap.

Update on the converter?

365rwhp in a good setup is good for mid 11s easy.

You can wire it directly to the battery, and just have the toggle switch mounted inside the vehicle to cut power to the motor, for open and closed positions.

Not that hard, but you will find a big argument about Manual and elctronic cut outs... Manual require 2 mins of your time, and will never fail. Electronic is nice due to the convinience of a switch, but can fail in the future. Motor can get stuck and will eventually. Plus, manuals are around 28 bucks vs 170ish for electronics.
Mine is a Manual one, and love it.
Have not yet closed it since i got it installed.

Im holding off right now on the converter... My tranny is slipping and are saving up to go with a built one, by one of the sponsors here. Just Looking for the best price.

You were right about the cut out, I love it and have it open. Only ppl besides me in parking lots get choked by the fumes, Im GOOD!!!

If I do wire it to the battery, won't it always receive current from the battery, even when the car is off. I do have a switch, but that controls the valve itself.

If your going electronic, some of the guys can help you as far as brands. Due to the warranty. All electronic cut out will fail...

On the other hand, If you are going with manual ones, just get the regular summit racing brand for 28bucks each. Anything else and ur just buying the brand name.

Well yes you will have constant current if you wire it directly into the battery with no switch...

Pretty much here is how i would do it.
Your ground just get it from any clean part of the chasis. Your 12 volts coming from the battery or where ever you chose to connect it to, has to land on the switch first, and then to the motor. That way you control the cutout, Kinda like a light switch...

Hope this helped!

SABIN SS....

This is the closes thing i have of a vid where you can hear my cut out open. It over sounds the other z28 and saleen

http://youtu.be/j7ZMzIT9YjE

My cutout, vs a Modded exst system with no cut out. You can hear the sound diff in this one

http://youtu.be/aa-g5mvEzLk

Me vs the Termi, Maybe because im closer to the wall you cant hear the cut out all that well, but its way louder than My Friends 04 Terminator.
