UPDATE! Project 11secV6 underway

[PACE]

those trans are different than the v8's and those clutches will get fryed, but im sure you now that travis, and hopefuly your band wont brake, and for the n/a HP you set it up right you should make around 300 at the crank maybe more... the cams alone can jump 40hp depending on witch one.. and the tune.. Good luck with the build travis, and those holden intakes work very well... you will like it., keep me updated, Latter, and ya i have a v6 that hangs with the big boys alreaddy..
and its just a single turbo....

So now travis, what suspension setups are you planning to run? A stock setup or something else? Picked out tires? you mentioned picking up salad shooters for some drag radials i though... maybe it was a different thread. but know what your getting?

Suspension is covered decently already. I have:

UMI LCAs
UMI PHR
ES poly Torque Arm Bushing
Stock V6 Springs
Z28 rear swaybar

Yea I am still looking for salad shooters and then I will add some nice rubber to them for the track. My hankook's will do just fine though for now for the street.

A UMI torque arm will be later on after I get some runs in to see how much trouble I have launching. I have a set of UMI subframe connectors here that I might put on if needed as well.

i have some stock firebird wheels (5 spoke twists)

I dont know how they compare to salad shooters but if you want them i'll sell them for cheap

[GETGONE]

Actually the 2000-2002 "Snowflake" 10 spokes are a pound or 2 lighter than the salad shooters from the info I've found. I sold my 2nd set of them a couple months ago though.

maybe i missed it..but how much hp you plan on putting out?

[lozanoa11]

i didn't know you were the first to use the holden intake in a f-body thats bad a. Don't know if i missed it but are you sticking w/ the stock 10 bolt?

i didn't know you were the first to use the holden intake in a f-body thats bad a. Don't know if i missed it but are you sticking w/ the stock 10 bolt?

yea until it blows, lol. Being an auto and not on the bottle all the time the rear should last decently though.

Looking for over 300-310 flywheel horsepower NA and then I have two stages of nitrous on it that I can ramp up whenever with some nozzles

As for the holden intakes, yea the first to use both upper and lower intakes. Tim King from intense-racing used the lower intake on their twin turbo race car

[lozanoa11]

thats cool. good luck with it travis

here is a shot of the MLS Cometic gaskets and rollmaster double roller timing chain

Parts are coming together now. A few more things to get and I can start tearing into it

[BP_Z28]

looking good

i think the 10 bolt will be just fine unless he's doing trans-brake launches on the bottle or something lol

I got around to painting my spare valve covers for my engine buildup. I did black with polished runners down the middle. Here are some pics:
