Re: look what i got..............

The ss didnt come with an interior. If it did I think id still keep the stockers.

Im not the fastest, but I am fastER. I do think im having the most fun though. Its not just the swap, the steering and suspension are all rebuilt and I upgraded the brakes. My iroc is a pleasure to drive and when I turn it on it returns the favor.

Re: look what i got..............

Oh well that's cool.. Sounds more like a track car more than a drag car.. So why believe to think to yourself you take on these Tpi's? You knew that wasnt happening.. Freeways my more larger size engine and way more power engine gets the same mpg your getting now. Traffic well that's a diffrent story because of the high torque curve. So anyways keep it cool and just enjoy it. You did pretty good. Ls1 swaps are just not most of our venues. I need to redo my front end also. I have replaced the ball joints but I should have done everything else. My Iroc steering box needs rebuilt. I just need for some one to tell me where to go local and drop it off. Id probably take it to my friends shop take it off an have it rebuilt and replace the front end parts. But that's the last on my list if I do start pouring money into it.

Re: look what i got..............

92purplehaze did you go with a t56? and what gear ratio is on that diff.
you should get the car tuned but easy on the launching youll break that diff!

these cars are completely new beast when you install the ls transplant.
nobody else knows cuz they havent done it.

i ran vincents old set up (392rwhp?) off of his gear *his advantage.
back in may?..
how did my stock ls1 perform against your high hp tpi car? what is your opinion?
answer : no comment, even to this day.

i have plenty of runs with higher hp newer gm cars, i am well satisfied, and thats a reason why i haven't touched any internals. id like to throw in a mild cam, buts its doing just fine. when its time for its first rebuilt i may just consider going with bigger cubes.

take one of tpi guys for a spin on the hwy and ask them what do u think of that?

Very Understandable, but you have Warren Johnson build the platform of the ls1.. were still using pretty old motors. So yeah the build platform can go as high as a 1,000 hp.. A SS produces 345hp. You added some headers and X pipe so you increased a few hp there. Time slips honestly dont mean the fair game. The fair game is on the Dyno an to the ground. So all this drag talk is just B.S thats why there is no comment. If we ran Id say the same thing no comment, because it be look at your weight savings and etc etc gears auto or 6 speed etc. Unless it's Dyno Jet and get tuned hp and torque.. Then there is your answer. So get those Ls1's to a Dyno then we can see whats what. Vincent doesnt have the torque like i have, he has me in hp by very little but hell I wasnt even done tuning. This was just some start tuning range. So I can easily make that hp back with tuning.
what Drag race record that needs to be set is the Irwindale. Not the 1/4 mile. We need to find out who is the fastest in less amount of time and less track equals driver experience.

Did you see the Vid of me deep staging that ls1 and how hard I pulled on him? That's a huge torque difrence and to get that out of a ls1 you need internals modded.
Of course a ls1 can do ok on the freeway.. But when you have a tpi producing more torque it's just going to pull on you.

The Ls1 just isnt the engine that our 3rdgens are building. There cheap motors. For what you both pay for each ls1 is what I paid just for my long block, no heads just the vortec block the 400 crank plus the 200-300 into the crank the rods the forged pistons. The value of the ls1 just isnt there. There newer there a nice block but money wise. The Tpi has it out numbered. Just in My Super Ram honing a lone and the 1000cfm lingenfelter throttle body alone is over a grand. Then you have Chorme plating thats a bill there. Were not even to the price of the Super Ram yet led alone the base and the port work. Not even the cost of porting the heads. Not even the cost of upgrading valve train etc. not even the rockers the push rods. And not even the cam, the lifters the 30lb svt injectors.. It adds up to an easy 15k in a complete build. rear end trans lca's global west pan hard, relocation brackets headers sub frame connectors, Alum water pump, High torque starters, flex plate. Ecu re wiring for speed density. You know all this.. So untill you spend that kind of money I think the no comment is like hey it's just wrecker engines and they need to be built before we can say anything ls1 vs Tpi.. There is so many diffrent cars each have there own combo. Nobody has my combo, I built a Gm platform engine.. That's what I did and to produce 442 rwtq that is pretty dam good.

So yeah just work with what you got, sure it's a huge goal. it looks nice but it's not classic. It's Modern.. Just like the kitchen and the kitchen sink kind of thing.

That nine bolt should hold up just fine. Now you gotta get some 3:45's good luck finding those. or a built ten bolt. Or 9" money money money..

Re: look what i got..............

You guys are using old motors cuz you choose to . No problem there.
I guess Me my brother and my buddies are of a different generation decided to do the ls1 swap. Cheap, Easy to work on , efficient and reliable.

You've probably been on Tgo for longer than me . But idk. I've been registered since 03 when I got my car, I'm 23 Now but never seen you at meets you been probably missing In action at events, irwindale and such.

My car has been spent time on the Dyno, and I set my personal best at irwindale before I broke an axle *still a few tenths of a second to drop with a better launch and I know what my car does at the 1/4. Im satisfied with the results. When I test n tune the car against others wether it's street, hwy or track I know what to expect .

Some People take it to another level. Some to a personal extent . I really don't. If I loose I loose I just know I didn't spend too much $$ on engine mods . Take a look at my car and lmk if it's too modern and not your taste .

I have to disagree on your no comment
I usually want to give feedback on the opponents vehicle . Either props, thumbs up or what's done to the car or what happened there ?

no comment = not interested in giving u feedback or most likely I will be back soon with more mods.

Some people are just different.

HUH .... Can you do just one post that we can understand? Please just one post.

Please get off this 442 rwtq that you keep bragging about its a damn TPI/ Superram it's already meant to have huge TQ, and second it's a STROKER. Also enough with this you can drag race, no you just drive an AUTO all YOU do is put it in drive and go

Tpi Terr I have nothing against you for your choice as some other may not be the same. I so happen to be the only one speaking and making the new Ls1 crowd understand that we know what they are. That's all.. Any other Tpi people like to speak then go ahead and explain what you feel.

You have not seen me because my car has been off the streets since 2007 and Im not a member of sc3gfb and never was really. I went to a few meets, that was just to hang out with some close friends. Most of my friends have moved on. They have built there thirdgen and moved on. And some are like me for several years our cars have been sitting. Mine is garaged and driven on private property roads for the seals for the transmission etc. Irwindale that was a long long time ago. Mike was there Alex was there, he sold his thirdgen.. pretty nice resortation sold over seas. And Julie was there. Im sure we mentioned to people we were going. Don knew we were going and Allen knew we were going. He was more than nice enough to loan me his Et streets so I do good my first time drag racing.

And yes I like your car from what I see. Everyone likes there thirdgen's for what they are. You have a very nice car infact. You just have spent your money on diffrent things than I have.

I h ave been a member here with Tgo for just as long as Kevin has we probably got our thirdgens around the same time. And Kevin was the one that got his dad to start working on thirdgens and he has done very well over the years. For some may know that Don isnt my best of best friend, we have went our own ways. People say I say bad things about him then I say good things. Don is what he is an there is no changing that. It's hard to put a very experienced mechanic in this field. Im sure he has had his good build and some just some slight problems. Nothing is perfect. He built my car and it is what it is and if he feels I got what I paid for with what I had then maybe some of the bad shouldnt have been said. But if you have a number of people going on your side on the out look of things, you most likely stick with your friends and you battle this disagreement out. I like to cover it hear because I respect Don in a diffrent way. The man has spoken with me so much and tried to teach me an understand most things about thirdgens. It's just like Don teaching Kevin things. The respect for that never goes away. Same as the respect that you may have for people or members that have helped you out with your thirdgen or teach you knowledge.

Hey I have not been there or seen anything to coment. I can only do that from what i see. So hey guys this young man wants an answer give your respect and honest truth. I have been judge so you be the judge and just admit and comment. I understand that this gentlemen has been Banned before I dont know why or what. But get to the point. I mean honestly I have spoken my point and I dont know what else to say.

I have always and always had family that owned a Camaro and i was raised with Camaro in my life for a very long time.

So if you spent time on the Dyno then what's the results? Why are they not in your sig? Id put it there, I have mine there I have nothing to hide. So yeah let me answer this next persons B.S

Know Im learning why I have been out of this stupid conversation crap for a long time..

Whoa back the train up Mr. 96 post.. You have a mis comprehension problem your not understanding what were talking about. Drag racing you all cant seem to get passed that. A lot of people think I cant drag race or I cant control the power.. Your behind with the conversation through out months that since I been back and talking with people. Hell yeah I'm going to stand up for the Tpi's.. That's why I don't even have to prove anything nor do I need to ask for any comments of my runs. Results are results and if you cant see passed that then your lost in a black hole some where.

Hey I'm sure most of the Tpi people are very happy with there power. It is what it is right.. You must have gotten confused about the build sheet I was explaining..

Ok here is one thing for you to understand, Get off my case already. Look computers hide peoples expressions. And a Auto is not just drive and go, you shift it and it's actually takes more of mechanic skill to tune it over a clutch and shift. Yeah sure the Stick is nice for the power, but your losing a tenth of a second or more when my auto shifting is already hitting the next gear. The fellows with six speeds know it takes skill to where it does not effect there run. So yeah I don't know where this B. S comes from people saying can you handle the power. Different track yeah.. In fact there was a track show down with Mike P an his thirdgen V-8 Vs a Six cyl thirdgen that gave him a pretty good run. I honestly that Mike would have won but that was not the case. So of course at different track events Power doesn't always rule.

I just keep the 442 in the Tpi's mind that's there goal. Hey I cant help it if there just building 355 or slightly larger. What's wrong with a stroker? Id still run well with my own class. As you can see with the Pinto at Irwindale in the vid..

So why don't we just turn this thread into look what I got, well look what I got thread. Stop concentrating on me.. Let these Tpi pros have a chance.

So yeah this is just good for you to read. Lady's read books so we have to keep up with our reading skills. So I don't know why your saying everything I have said doesn't make any since. I'm the one doing all the writing here.

So here's me when I meet everyone and know the cool ones and know the ones that like to B. S.. Oh nice to meet you Jerk number One, Hey Jerk number two. Oh and Jerk number three dam there is a lot of ego's here..That's kinda stuff Mike Likes, because he will really get you in a bad spot and always has something good to say. You just cant call Mike out in person and expect to win. enough said here Fellows.

Yes I'm Mr 97 post now fyi, some of us don't post on here to get our post count up .

This thread was started to show what this person got which was a damn LS1 and what he ended up doing with it.

As far as him calling you out, it is probably the same reason I got on here to call you out also. STFU you sound like an idiot that is giving OUR TPI cars a bad name. Yes I have a TPI car, and a few LS cars, let me know when you want to compare dyno graphs because I have a smaller LS engine that will put you to shame or wait will you start bringing up someone else up that has something faster right?

BTW I'm done posting on here to keep my post count up, if you want to meet up to play with your little dyno numbers let me know. Shoot me a PM and stop talking this big game when you're just a CHUMP and I'm sure the Purplehaze feels the same way about you.

Post count where in the hell do you get that. That's just lame. Look if your not smart enough this is a free country I can say what I have to say when I want when I want. So No post count is not on my mind.

Where in the hell do you think that I'm speaking for Tpi's? Your the chump I'm speaking of my own dam car..I don't have any graphs I don't need the dam graph I had a Dam pro tune my car At Blower Drive Service. Craig is not just open anytime and tune a car just with no advance. This guy tunes cars all around the world there Chump. Post your Sheet up..It's not going to hurt nobody.
You all want to f$$ck with me because I'm the only one with a Stroker.. That's pretty sad.. Keep your day Job. You people must be so f$$cking stupid. So get off my case and just read. If you don't understand people like to share that matches what they got if that what's the post is. Why do you see why Mike put up the Video, why do you see why Vincent say Look that's not going to happen. Look it's not going to happen. Id probably get in a fight with you all.. So why am I going to jump into your court. You don't want to jump in my court.
You about the lamest paragraph I have ever seen it's pathetic.. Bring up something that's faster. How in the hell is a smaller Ls1 than haze has going to put me to shame? explain that? Tell me how you made is smaller? Because that's the most stupid thing I have ever heard of. Smaller Ls1 give me a break. Tpi Terr no disrespect to you. But I'm outta of here.. I'll let some one else handle thier A$$.. I'm done wasting my time and your ego's are just a rolling. That is sad because I don't bring Egotistical into this game. I'm a grown a$$ 215lb man.. I don't need to shine some one a ego..

Peace I'm done with you fools.. Haze here you go take your post back.. Kevin Hit the Script Delete all this Crap. I'm out.. Sorry *** Ls1 bull sh$t now I see why some of that crowd gets banned. I never been Banned. I been here since 1999. Post count give me a break through that crap in the trash.. I dont care what Haze feels. I seen who he is.

Yeah I just was there today. I told Slic you said wassup.. He didnt mentioned what he was really building but, he was asking whats up with him. I guess he was expecting the Fox body friend to say wassup..
I was just stopping by to see Gene and the new people Im sending his way. He was showing me his Land Rover he is selling, my wife wants one but it's a 05 with body damage a little more wear than my 04 malibu.. He asking a bit to much, i mentioned payments for a year pay off. Guess he needs all cash, says he needs a Car a Zo6.. I told him he better have a heavy wallet for what a z06 is and just imagine he would probably be making it much faster but legal. lol..

CaliBrandon why are you in here talking crap about a car the guy did all the work too? I see post after post where you have to have somebody fix your car... You need a shop to tighten some tranny bolts get the hell out of town...

Thats like your girlfriend get a boobjob and you brag how good of a job the doctor did... Either fix your car and get out there or dont talk crap about other peoples builds.

Re: look what i got..............

No buddy the problem is when someone created a thread saying that there is a china ebay knock off of Don's headers you went on bashing Don that he copied SLP. Of course you were proven stupid. Then when I'm selling my headers you go on saying how they arent worth more that scrap because Don has a superior header. See where things get tricky?

Now if people search your old username BrandenCali they can see you whining about how rich you are and Don screwed you over and etc etc. Sounds like you're still living off your family driving around young skater kids cars. You were a lackey in a transmission shop, big deal. If you spent half the time you do posting working on your car you might actually be driving it too. Time to stop living in the past.

I can do anything I put my mind to. Build a motor and apparently now wire up an ls swap. What can you do? Pick bad used parts pay someone to put it together then blame them? Meet me face to face? I'm not scared one bit, 215lbs? I'm 230 so what? Is this a pissing match now? I tried being nice and accepting you for being the guy that rambles about nothing but you just don't get it.

I have installed my own trans on the ground I have installed the Super Ram by myself. I dont build block neither did haze. I dont do mandrel bend cat backs. It's a swap you install it and go. I have worked on more cars in one month than this kid has in his whole life so shut up and I have done all kinds of work on my Iroc.. So no no It's on theres the poll. Will know who's who and who backs out. Your stuck now suckers. Exactly what I said in the poll stays.. Never will be able to call us out again. 4 months is plenty of time.. Game on.. Let the Smoke fly into the OZone..
