Pshhhh Joels will still be more of a beast. Only thing is I will be able to rev it to the moon and not have my rear end blow up on the launch haha.

What do you have done to your LT1? I know you have a s60 which i'm jelly lol But i guess i've never really read up on your motor?

Motor is basically stock. Just slight bump with Felpro gaskets and new stainless steel valves. Obviously headers and CAI. No Y Pipe just a muffler on each header.

Otherwise its full suspension now, double adj shocks rear/coilovers in front, S60 with 4.10s, Spec Stage 3, tunnel mounted torque arm, 255lph pump with 6an fuel lines. Pretty much built besides the trans and engine haha. Got a block sitting in the garage waiting to build this summer.

But am getting a package on Tuesday that will add some power.

Glad to hear you got the truck! You'll be happy in the end.

HAHA!!

Well I dropped the block, crank, rods, pistons, and heads off to the machine shop on Wednesday. The new news is I am having the block line bored, cyl bored .30 over, the crank polished, .30 over forged srp pistons, all new bearings, new rings, stud-ed two bolt, and everything will be balanced and clearanced. And now for the news i wasn't expecting going into the shop, my heads will be getting a full port job (and let me say the port work this guy does here in town is amazing!!) and the cam we decided on is a lot bigger than the one I had planned on but I'm not complaining So I will be out of the machine shop with a 355 with a fully ported top end and a lunati Vodoo 60123 cam. And can I say I am sooo excited.

Thats a huge cam Nick, are you sure you want that big? Reason being thats getting to the point the car will only be useable with one throttle position...wide open. I like to have some midrange so im not tempted to WOT on the street all the time and start a collection of coupons from the boys in blue.

Sounds like it will be bad ass though and i recommend at least 11.5:1 compression.

I agree Joel it is huge but when paring it with my 3000k stall, 3.73's, and the rest of my car i think it will be a ton of fun and yes its going to have at least 11:1 compression. I just havent seen many people run this cam and my machine shop guy even agrees it will work great with what i have and it should be a monster with my fully ported and polished heads.

That thing is going to be nasty!
