Hello. Had an 01ws6 since 2006 and I've finally decided now was a good time to modify it. I'm gonna do a build thread, as the car is about to change a lot and I'm in over my thread. I guess I can also use asking this question as my introduction.
Car went down with 48k miles on the dash. Second owner. Immaculate condition but the door crack.
Here is the build.
Polluter V2 cam
forged internals with summit pro ls
Machine line hone, bore hone, all new bearings, decked
PRC 243s with the 2.5 porting job from TSP. (Asked them not to ingrave)
fast 102
Mw 102
38# fast ls2 injectors
2110R pushrods
stage 4 uMI kmember
viking front coilovers
1 7/8 headers
SPE. True duals
Absolute **** ton of nitrous
moser 12 bolt with 3.73 35 spline
LNC-2000
cheap drag pack 10 inch rear and 4 inch front.
I know a lot of people would have chosen different stuff, and I respect that. But everything in this list is already bought.
I want to do at minimum a 300 shot. Is this crazy?
Single disk clutch and a stock T56 with 50k miles about to get demolished.
Update:
Got in my ls2 rail, I know you can use ls3 injectors with tophats, but I opted for ls2 injectors instead. Got 57#, which should allow me to use e85. Still need a content sensor to wire into pcm.
All I have left to figure out, is my steam crossovers, my breather into my catch can, and the small vacuum hose that controls hvac actuator, and my slave cylinder for my clutch and speed bleeder. Thats it! After 6 months lol.
Then its time to lower it and harness it up. The bracket i made to interface my throttlecable will get tested soon and thats about the only thing that can shut this party down.
I couldn't find any vendor that sells a bracket for the 102. Plenty were available for the 92. I've heard many things about how the 102 is notoriously hard to make idle and tune, I think it has a large thing to do with the placement of the cable many of them use stock mounts. This is a mock up that I plan on modifying later to take all the slack out then again I'm also very new and kind of dumb
Sorry for posting so much but things are moving fast.
Kmember bolted up and most sensors done. Still need to bleed brakes, and clutch, and a few finishing wires, scheduled for a.startup tune in less than two weeks.. feeling the pressure for sure. Ordered a catch can, and I need to figure out how to block the evap return line. Thats about it! Thanks for following the build
I don't suppose it was you on you tube asking me about ptv clearance a couple weeks ago was it?
I'm running the same heads/ cam.
I don't think it was, but possibly. I got the pistons with relief. How do you like the heads/cam? Any clips of it? Do you spray? Sorry for the 20 questions im excited as I'm nearing that first start

I love the set up a lot. Pulls really hard especially above 5500 rpms.
I would like to spray it but need to pull the converter out and have it re-stalled. I run a Yank PT4400 and it's a wicked NA converter but spray would blow through that thing.
About 4 years ago I ran 11.2 @ 122 mph with transmission issues, Ls6 intake and shifting at 6800 rpms.
This fall I I'm going to run it and fully expect to run something like 10.8 @ 125+ mph. Changes are MSD Airforce intake, shifting at 7300 rpms and no tranny issues.
Last video is a race against my buddies 2015 Chevy SS Ls3 cam, full exhaust, e85, tune.
