Its official! For the 2007 racing season Canadian Performance and myself will be teaming up to for testing and racing on an experimental LS1 powerplant. Although this engine will be old school I am very enthusiastic about the potiental and prospects of this program. Dave is providing the engine and I am providing the car.

At this time all I can say about the engine is it will be unique in a few areas Firstly it will be a big bore aluminum rod engine sporting Dart heads. In a nitrious combination equiped with carb and fogger. A powerglide will back this powerplant up. I will let you guys ask Dave all the particulars on the engine. Dave has made great progress on this engine and already has everything for the engine except the block ( waiting on shipping) and pistons. 2007 should be allot of fun and I am very happy to back to just F-body racing!

Nice to hear that you and Dave are collaborating in 2007, good luck and I hope you run great!!!!

John Ryan

 

Thanks John....Are there any LSX F-body races we should be planning on attending?

 

Time to blow the dust off that nitrous list and shake it up a bit... Its been stale for a few years

 

You guys might be a real mean combo.

There might be an interesting race or two, can talk more about that after PRI.

 

Why do you say that john... just cause vince is seated #1 nitrous LT1 and i'm seated #2? But seriously we're going to schedule 3 races over the border so let us know whats up after PRI. Any ls1tech shootouts for 07?
Dave

 

This is going to get crazy!

Good Luck Dave/Vince!!!

Tony.

 

Uh oh there goes the neighborhood!

 

Good luck guys. It's great to see Dave back into racing.
Robert

 

Very exciting. Cant wait to see the setup. Its gonna rip

 

This thing sounds like it's going to be one hell of a monster. You're definetly going to have to give us some more details.

 

Well you have to talk to Dave about any engine stuff but on the car fire away? I can answer those.

 

What's your best 60 ft vince?

 

The car has a best sixty foot of 1.22 on a 28 x 12.5 ET street. Stock suspension at 3150lbs at Carolina Dragway in October of this year. This is with my now For Sale 421 Cid SBC engine on nitrious. Anyone interested in the engine please pm me. It is a low 8 second nitrious engine.

 

What kind of car are we talking about vette or camaro or other?

 

LT1 style camaro.

Here's a video of one of its most fun passes:
