Putting together a drivetrain combo for my iroc
Goal:
BRUTAL acceleration at any speed from 0-120ish.
The combo MUST be reliable and streetable, I want to be able to daily this thing if I want. I can care less about gas mileage, the car is strickly my "toy."
Currently Setup:
The car is set up for the twisties, and that’s the way it will stay. I don’t street race and have no desire to do so. The car currently is a stock L98 with 3.45 9 bolt with a girdle. I would like to stay with that rear for the time being, but would like to hear options on what might be a better gear ratio with the new drivetrain setup/T56. Everything has been gone through at this point in the anticipation it will be capable to handle whatever I throw at it when I got to this point such as fuel, brakes, suspension etc.
What is the best combo for me, L98, lsx? What heads? Cam? Intake? Rear gears considering the high first gear in the T56’s (2.66) etc.
Any help would be great!
