Build looks good and it should make alot of power. I only see one problem, I see in the pics you have a Magnafuel 750. I had the exact same pump on my car and it wasnt much good past 1100rwhp. I have a Weldon on the car now. I can see the car easily making 1300 with a 6 speed, 1500 will be iffy because big motors do not like little turbos and back pressure and heat will become a big problem, I speak from experience on this one.

Congrats on the build and I look forward to seeing it put down some good track/dyno numbers.

I'm sure they wouldn't mind finding out.

It's only a transmission and wheel swap away from hitting the track.

I hear this guy will be your huckleberry if you want to talk about street cars...

Don't mind the 1500rwhp #'s. I hear it makes a LOT more now...



On a serious note I'd listen to what RCC has to say because he's been playing this Turbo LS1 game for awhile. I think he knows what works and what doesn't!

That all can vary by suspension, tires/wheels, blah you know it already.

It had Leinco or Jerricho (spelling on both?) transmission if I remember correctly. A whole lot different then a factory car. Esp considering that car was a purpose one off build by Chevy that had no accessories... etc...
