T-tops are badass tbh.
What do you mean? my understanding is just reprogram the chip for over 400 HP, though it will not be emission compliant. Mine has 340HP stock. My previous 2000 Z28 had 305 stock.
I've seen articles of people getting 1200HP out of these engines with dual turbos.
A cam swap, heads, pulleys, rods and a set of long tube headers can all be ordered online and done in your driveway if you are handy with a wrench...and will only set you back around 3k. I've seen cars online that only had that done and were pushing 400.
You can skip the cam I bet, go with the true duel exhaust and headers, and reprogram the computer and pull over 450 I bet.
It sounds like you are talking about the previous 350, rather than the 346.
FYI, the classic small block has a 4" bore and 3.48" stroke for 350 CI. It uses a 5.7" rod. The Newer aluminum block has a 99mm (3.9") bore and 92mm (3.6") stroke for 346 CI and uses a 6.2" rod. The intake design and fuel injection point alone make for some serious power with almost no help but removing the emission constraints.
Perhaps...either way, those LS1's are easy to get extra HP out of without resorting to forced induction.
Absolutely.
So I've put the Trans Am on hold for now...because I just couldn't wait to get back in a muscle car. Traded in the Maxima for a '13 Challenger R/T. V8...six speed...custom striping...20 inch Ridler wheels with staggered tires. I love it. It actually rides really nice for a sports car. Thought the suspension would be stiffer. Starting that engine is always the best part of my day.
"Does this ah car have poosy magnet?"
Nice ride.
They quit making real corvettes in 1967 after that they were copies of the real "wrap your ass in fiberglass crowd"
My favorites are the minivan dads....they look at me like "what the am I doing with my life?"
