cc503 on stock heads with supporting valve train has shown great results at the track.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I'd like to keep the same block in order to keep all numbers matching down the road. You made me feel a little better about the oil pressure but sometimes that low indication gets me very nervous (below 20 @hot idle). I know the total history of the car and everything has been maintained very well but it's getting close to 100k and I do know that the bottom end needs going over so it can support the cam, and other top end work. I'm a planner so I'll have everything priced out before we start work. I just need to find a good shop to do most of the mods...and pull the engine too. there don't seem to be any good shops that I'd trust here on Staten Island so looks like I'll go back to NJ.

Good luck and just so you know, the blocks are not vin coded. If it was, I would be keeping my block for down the road.

Not true. Every LT1 block leaves the factory with the last 8 digits of the VIN engraved on the block, just above the oil filter.

Well I stand corrected. Just got back from the track. The 95 ran a 13.66@100.5.. That was with a 1.993 60' on street tires. Think I might just have to do a LT4 cam with some bolt ons and the car should be a 12 second car.. The only mods done are the Firehawk mods.. Catback, Ramair, and a 3200 revmax stall..
