Read these to get an idea on where you want to go. Also think about driveshafts, rear ends, and clutches if an M6/converters if auto.

 

It's a auto I thought about 3600-3800 stall and thank you bro I'm Finna read now lol

 

Just remember it costs money to make power and it's not cheap at all. Hell just a cam upgrade can end up costing you $1600-$2200+ by the time you figure in the cost of the cam/springs/rocker upgrade/gaskets/tuning software or tune and then if an auto you'll need higher stall converter. Then you better hope your injectors/fuel system are going to keep up.

 

So your initial goal is around 470 rwhp n/a?

 

It's going to take a LOT of work to get to 470 whp n/a with an auto. Just don't want you to have unrealistic expectations.

 

Back to drawing board fellas because I wanna do this the right way fellas and make sure it with stand and perform good I thank you all.! What size throttle body's you are going with oh yea baught my first Ls1 this past Saturday Attachment 544753
