I'd love to see how he'd do against a well maintained, well driven LT1 vette from a low roll. He should have a slight power advantage, but the vette weighs less and a manual would have an advantage.

Like Marc said, 1994 Z28, A4. He's got most of the bolt-ons. The only other power bolt-ons he could so would be swapping the shorty's for long tube, swapping on a larger throttle body, and a tune. Gears and a converter would help quite a bit, but he's going in a different direction with the car.

Yeah, stock internal, other than 1.6 rockers. He has 3.42 gears, but the taller tires knock the gearing back to around stock.

(Nice. I've been researching a lot lately, I'm glad you verified that this is a good cam. What else do you have done to your car? Also, what valvesprings are you using?)
I have hooker comp long tubes, ported. Throttle body, cold air intake, 1.6rr's, xfi 466 cam, off road y-pipe, magnflow muffler, comp cam "beehive" valve springs, t56 built by liberty, 4.10 gears and an s60

Where do you shift? I've heard mixed things about the CompCams beehives, how do they handle higher rpm's? Any reason why you didn't go with dual-springs? I'm just wondering

It's not a difficult job, you just have to adjust them correctly. The first time I ever did it (10 years ago) I fucked it up and bent a bunch of pushrods. I would do valve springs at the same time, although I have heard of people reusing the stock springs.

Alright thanks. I don't know too much about modding yet, but I'm trying to learn before I go do it. What ratio rockers are you running? I've heard of people running 1.7's in LT1s. Also, what are the springs you're using called exactly? Are they CC 918's?

Cool, good luck with the assembly, I'll def be taking a look at your build thread, especially the heads
