​​​​​​I just sold it the end of winter. I planned on doing a 6.2 swap and maybe doing a little spray but couldn't bring myself to cut the hell out of that car it was a real clean car. Was looking for rollers and cam across this fox so I scooped it up and saved a headache. This winter I'm gonna put a lsa blower on it. Always see spray and turbo foxs so I figured be different and still make around 800whp.

I wish the camera man was in the Camaro but I gave the no passenger advantage to him since my cars like 600lbs lighter... It lights the candles pretty well i was told lol

Sweet car!

I'm not convinced an LSA blower can make 800whp without burning it's bearings out or going nuclear.

No? I was looking at different blowers to go with but to put a lsa together it'll be around 2k minus a cam and converter flash or swap so I figured I'd push one and see what we can do. Friends shop just did a zl1 with a stage 2 btr cam, bolt ons and 15psi made around 750

I have no issues seeing +700whp spinning the **** out of that 1.9 TVS. They make lots of heat and have bearing issues at high rotor speed. (over 22000 rpm IIRC)

Plan your cooling carefully and don't be disappointed if a bearing failure happens.

Fourth Gen did pretty well considering it was on a smaller shot and weighs more. However, this isn't enough information on either car to tell what all the mods are aside from engine size and shot size. Either way, both cars are sweet!

I didn't have a good tire under the car, even on this I was in second to keep traction. we actually just got done tuning the nitrous tune a half hour before this race and first gear was a **** show. I still need to go to the track for a test and tune and set up the car to launch off the brake and nitrous. I'll post up when I do though.

I'll keep that in mind, I know of two cars that are owned by friends down in Florida that made 700-750 with stock cooling and ran for 30k miles until they sold/upgraded that ran fine. zl1 had 30k miles on it then sold and the ctsv made 800 by the time he went with an icebox... maybe mid 7 is the lucky number? all things aside those are 6.2s and I have a 6.0 so it will be a different story. But I already planned on different cooling for the blower.
