thx, if looks could kill, it would be a winner, but actually it is a real nice cruzer.
it is:
phase #1 was
stock 350 block
LT1 flattop rotating assembly (appx 10.5 to 1)
comp 408-8 cam (short duration/hi lift for an awesome bottom end)
52 mm throttle body
reworked/upgraded 700R w/shift kit
2400 stall
phase #2 adds:
afr 180 heads
holley stealth ram intake/fuel rails
mega squirt ECU
1.6 full roller rockers/comp pushrods
hedmann long tubes/custom Y pipe
custon subframe connectors (plans from 3rd gen org)
the heads and intake should move the hp/torque curves up a bit. it had too much bottom and was lacking a bit in the upper rpm range with the TPI and stock heads.
and before spring, it is getting a dana 60 rear end (3.55 or 3.73 gears)
derek did a sideways straight stunt during a cruz last fall, and hurt the stock rear end, it has a nice harmonic vibration to it now.
the only issue still facing us is hood clearance, but cutting reinforements should give us enough.PRO-CRUZ IROC

with ample low end torque, i am thinking 3.55 will be plenty...Originally posted by chevyman9306 View PostThing looks sick!!! I would vote for 3:73's if we were voting
the heads are on and torqued down... working on opening up the headers to match the gaskets and headsAttached FilesPRO-CRUZ IROC
