Looks pimp. I still think you should put a solid roller cam in it!
In due time son, and no need for a solid roller cam(It’s a street car/ Grocery getter)

[quote=Strini SS;9395691]My first though was to do a "383ci with a blower", then Josh and Steven took the time to share with me the dyno number of pervious customers with (383's and power adders) vs. GM's new LSX platform... There was no comparison. [quote]

There was no comparison how?

This engine combo is going to make over 600 rwhp natualy aspirated, and he will have no worries about belt slippage or even throwing a belt. With a little bit of nitrous this combo will make 800rwhp. I would put this car up against any pro-charged car in Houston. I am not knocking pro-charger but for an f-body in this case I dont think it is the way to go.

Congrats Brandon! Looks like I'm going to have to build the motor in the Porsche so I can keep up with everyone 650rwhp isn't going to be cutting it anymore

I can respect your opinion. Different ways to get to the same destination. But for sure an F1A will make more than 800 rwhp without nitrous. But you already knew that.

I know of a black f-body that may take you up on that. Regardless, It would be nice to watch

When I read the part of the previous numbers I laughed.

I love it,

383 with power adder, then was shown numbers from GM's latest 454 LSX.

Yeah you are correct the numbers would be different

You will be worshiped,

Im not worthy

AWESOME FREAKING SETUP!!

I'm sure Jeff's car will be one of the car he have fun running once I have a few miles on the car.

There aren't very many fast Procharger F Body's around. It's definately the road less traveled. But 800rwhp is pretty easily attainable and it sure would be nice not to fill bottles all the time

<----building Procharger car obviously
