h/c project
 

well officially yesterday at 130pm i finished the heads/cam swap, which i started on monday morning at 11am, with stops here and there couple times for WaWa runs, TV, etc.. also had help of two friends. car sounds MEAN. will get sound clip soon. just right now have to figure out a vacume leak, probably around the rear of the manifold.

****in sweet, what are the specs

What Heads & Cam set up did you go with?

JW

heads: PATRIOT S2 5.7ltr LS1 p&p
cam: TSP 231/237 .598/.595 lsa 112+2

currently trying to find out why my MAP is constantly > 60

He's got the same setup that foff667 had on his '98.....

haha that IS bill's setup. he got the camaro, i got some new heads/cam :)

What cat-back are you running? Because in Bills car with the Open Borla it sounded SICk! :twisted:

haha longtubes,no cats, and SLP LM

I know, I was just stating that for those that have heard Bill's soundclips.

- Justin

jesus thats gonna be loud!

jesus i cant drive it around just yet cuz its too loud haha. but i have cruised and it jsut blurp blurp blurp blrup. lol im gonna try to get a bullet muffler, or cats, or somethin, but def cutouts.

thats a popular h/c setup. i seen it many times on ls1tech. they dyno around 470-480 rwhp with a RIDICULOUS torque curve. i seen one go as high as 487. now you need to get those heads ported, a 90/90, and a throttle body so you can get that 480+.

Have you really seen numbers that high with that setup?

IIRC, Bill was only putting down 340ish to the wheels. (That was with a crap tune, LS1 intake, stock TB, and dyno'd in 2nd gear due to his 2.73s though).

- Justin

Yea I dont ever remember seeing numbers that high either. :?

JW :D

actually it was 373 to the wheels with all above mentioned...but that combo has put down like 440+ in m6 cars. I've never seen it go much above that though...eric's on the stock converter too I cant imagine that thing being too driveable at this point...hopefully he'll get a decent stall soon.

how long until the new combo makes it to the track?

later

anytime man, i just would like to quiet it down ALOT MORE so i can actually drive it to the track. lol. hey man, mabey tomorrow, not sure yet. i jsut wanna quiet it down till i get ther,. then let her rip, then on way home quiet again. lol

**** quiet no one needs quiet 8)
