thanks , it was faster when i had the gen 4 bottom end in it, but a thrown belt and over heat took out the bearings so i was forced to toss in a cheap gen 3 short block. i dont know the wheel hp as i only have a street tune on it, but its been down the track at least 40 times and countless street runs and so far the rods are still inside the block. fingers crossed. there are more videos on my channel of the car if you dig around.

Amazing car! Exactly how I would build a G-Body. Was thinking about finding a nice Regal and dropping in a turbo LQ4. Lighten it up a little .

no its a gen 3 style not gen 4. crap rods . i did have a gen 4 in the car for a week or so but the belt came off during a pass and over heated it very bad. that motor i pushed much harder.
