Ok, ok - You're twisting my arm.

It's the EPS 222/226 - .597/.598 on a 113. After talking to Geoff at EPS, it matched my goals for the car, and complimented the package I'm putting together.

I'm not looking for top-fuel idle quality and 7k shift points, along with changing valve springs every 2 weeks. A broad powerband, and torque that doesn't quit along with a quiet long lived valvetrain is what I'm looking for.

A similar setup (thread on LS1tech) with the same cam in an LS6 put down 430HP/415Ft-Lbs at the wheel through an A4. Only difference is the cam was on a 115 to tame the idle to stock like quality, and his heads were bone-stock 243 LS6 (crate motor).

As for the car - It's a '98 Z28. Power items: SLP lid, ported throttle body, LS6 intake, Dynatech stainless headers and catted Y pipe into a Magnaflow cat-back. Tuned the car myself with HP Tuners and a wideband. Trans is a stock 4l60e, with a Yank SS3600. Rear is a low-mileage 3.42 takeout from a M6 car, with the T/A style girdle on it.

Suspension mods: Weld-in subframe connectors, adjustable lower control arms, panhard bar and torque arm. Bolt-on LCA relocation brackets. All UMI stuff. Strano springs and sway bars, Koni shocks, 17" C6z06 wheels.

BMX: Yeah, I'm a big-time street racer! I just wanted to avoid the "You should have gone bigger!" stuff.

LTB1ow: Close.
