I bought this car as a roller 2 years back, i did not work on it for the first year i had it....but finally got motivated last year and put the car together. It has an HKE 408 ci short block with GMPP LS3 CNC heads. BTR stroker nitrous camshaft, GM LS3 single plane intake, FIC1000 injectors, and Accufab 4150 TB. The nitrous system is a Induction Solutions -Real Street plate kit (single entry N20 and Fuel). Nitrous kit is a stand alone kit, fuel cell-holley blue pump-aeromotive regulator-all low pressure system.Car has a meziere radiator and water pump combo (type where the pump is mounted to the radiator) on water only my temps never get above 215*. Trans is a FTI LVL4 (TH400) RMVB w/ TB- Continental torque converter(built up well by Peter) its a nitrous converter and stalls around 5200 RPM. Car uses a Lingenfelter LNC-2000 for pulling timing with nitrous and setting launch RPM's. Nitrous is controlled with a Leash box. All tuning done by Mike Norris of Norris Motorsports. Car put down 480rwhp on motor and 630rwhp on a .72 jet. Ran 10.6's on motor and with the .72 jet car ran 9.11 @ 146. Last racing season is the only time i've ran the car. Made about 15-20 passes for the year, never really got to turn the nitrous up because i tried to get it all working on a 275/50/15 M/T radial tire
