Definitely not an LS1, look at the headlights and you can barely see what appears to be a distributor cap on the front of the motor.

Correct.This is a 93 LT1 car.
This car is a 396 solid roller with AFR heads.
He is running a Edelbrock intake with a NX plate kit.The elbow has been machined down for clearence and single throttle body.

Lats year at Thunder he was running a LT4 intake and hydralic cam.The car will be tuned and ready for the upcomming race in San Antonio.

This will give you an idea of the upcomming intake set ups we are going to be buiding for the LS1 and LT1.Ours will simply Bolt on and you will not have to go though all the hassles Tony did to make this system work.

Hey guys....this is my car. Thanks Dave for posting these.
This is actually a 396 LT4 engine with AFR 227 LT4 heads with a Edlebrock "E" intake, PTE 100 degree elbow, Accufab 90mm T-body, Edlebrock fuel rails for the injectors, plus much more. The nitrous system is a NX dual stage plate system with a digiset delay box, MSD rpm window switch, Stand a lone fuel system (battery tray mounted), and the normal acessories. It should be a beast!!

Dave I think he is talking about the GM High Tech photo shoot. Sept. 04 issue. They shot the pics in Nov 03'. My car and CJ's car where on the cover in the front. The title says LS1 vs LT1 "Juiced up camaros bottle it out in Texas".

Tony, that is a great looking setup that you've put together. Dave, your parts look good on there too, lol. I look forward to seeing it run in San Antonio next month.

That's a bad *** setup!

A few questions:
Why the plate system and not a DP? Are you running in a class that limits you to a plate or single nozzle?

If your in the LS1 tech series, do you plan to set up a second stage and more solenoids? Just curious on the choice of two solenoids.

What does the car weigh? Transmission? What size shot/hp are you spraying?

Can you elaborate on this?

Does it mean you plan to offer converted single plain intakes for LT1 cars? EFI ready? Rails and crossover done? bolt on ready as in elbow and all? Price estimate?

A single plain intake and much larger cam are on my list of "things I'd like to try on the car." I've looked into price and if yours is comparable, I'd order one and have you guys install a DP so it's ready to go with little effort on my part.

The classes I plan on racing outside of the LS1TECH series do not allow DP. It actually already is a dual stage with 4 solenoieds. The front two that you see are both the fuel solenoids for both stages. The nitrous solenoids are closer to the back of the fuel rail. You can kinda see them in the pics.

The car weighs around 3500. (should take weight off soon). Gonna spray a 350-400 shot.

Ahhhh, that makes sense.

Sounds like a nice setup that should run some good numbers.

Shooting for 8s?
