I think its dope, something diff, something to draw attention, and get notice while you at the track, or just ingeneral, keep up the good work. Dont let these people decide your color on YOUR car

I never said I didn't like the ls1. I was just saying that would be the end all engine for this car. I can't say anything about an engine that's making 400hp with a mild cam.

Put about 2,000usd into some golden heads and that engine will be stupid fast.

Very nice work.

ls1's arent that hard to find these days....its the t56 that is the expensive part. start checking with a local engine exchange ive found ls1's around the 1500$ range with 100ish k miles

It was really just a question wondering why your car would have less power than his when yours has a cam?
400hp with just an intake, long tube headers back, and a tune? Most people with those only make around 340hp. Id imagine he has to be running a ls6 intake mani among other things to make 400hp.

Well said.

The three people I know that have ls1s make power consistent with your mods and your dyno.
