Thanks for the compliment. Whether it looks like it or not, I spent a lot of time on the list.

3.4, holy heck. Put a 2.9 pulley on it and hold on.

No, put the LSJ header on and had to make it fit on there with the SAI pipe connected to the back of the cylinder head. Put a block off on the SAI pipe. Removed SAI from tune. I actually had Vince flash my car with the same vehicle without SAI to remove emissions flags from the ECU.

 

Gene, was it worth it going straight to stage two? i have the stock injectors and pulley, but if stage 2 is that much better, would it be worth not even installing the stock equiptment?

 

its winter were i am , so im keeping low boost for the snow and gonna need a clutch soon aha , but ill be droping to a 3 in the summer before i build the engine , then drop it to a 2.6 -2.5 mabe to see what hp i can make . meth is ur best friend aha

 

damn, i didnt realize you were going SC'ed lol.. you gonna be bringing it to the track this year?

 

you're gonna want it later on anyways.
trust me lol.
might at well get ahead.

 

ya looking to have it done by a april , i cant wait till it built

 

oh it will most definately be there lol.

id like to have it done by march. as soon as it starts getting a little milder arount here. i cant wait either

thats what i figured as well. Just gotta start researching stage 2 options. Will Be tuned by trifecta, unless for some miracle reason new era performance, who is 10 mins down the road from me can figure something out and I can dynotune it with them

 

I wouldn't mess around and I'd get the parts to do the stage 2.

 

Thats just the 42.5lb injectors and pulley correct?

 

Yes.

 

its 48 degrees!! start building!
let me know when you're done bro i'd love to see this thing

 

wheres all your pictures?

 

of what

 

Didnt you already start getting parts?

 

yes they are all in storage in my shop. all i have at home is the blower

 

Out of curiosity, is GM stage 2 kit the way to go for these motors? Are zzp and OTTP too agressive for stock cooling mods?

 

If u go stage 2 u might as well get an extra heat exchanger. I am using both the stock and the cobra

 

Yeah i was thinking something like that. well i already purchased the GM stage 2 kit from a friend for 300 bucks. This way i wont have to get the car tuned twice. Would a dual pass end plate help out at all instead of getting a 2nd heat exchanger?

 

Well normally the dual pass alone drops iat2s alot alone. But the extra heat exchanger would only benefit with the dual pass

 

gotcah...where does this extra heat exchanger fit?

 

well the stock one is squished between the radiator and AC exchanger, so the aftermarket ones take up the position of being in a front mount location

 

Correct me if I am wrong, but cobra is the only one that does not hang below stock bumper?

 

Yeah so far

 

Then it sounds like i will be purchasingg a cobra heat exchanger as well. However, how well will the stock heat exchanger do with the GM kit

 

iam assuming this is my kit i sold u lol right? idk how i missed the thread

get it.. i suggest the OTTP exchanger, cooling mods 1st, heat is thee enemy
