Yup and local machine shop work plus balancing, 1000$ or so. 500$ Take off heads cleaned up and checked for few 100$, and a 200$ ls3 intake.

Cheap easy big power

 

4.1 stroke on that BPE 427. You will be needing to mod the oil pan to fit.

 

So what is he looking for, engine and trans?

 

Knowing that I want to hit 600+RWHP someday, OK if not right away what do you guys think of skipping over the LS3 and jumping right into an LSA?

The connect & cruise systems that GM offers basically give you everything you need to turn your car into a ZL1. I checked out Camaro5 forums and those guys have crazy looking TQ curves bone stock. Then they add a pulley and jump over 600 RWHP easily. Seems like a good route. Gets a 2 year 50,000 miles warranty too.

Not cheap by a long shot, but all there, new and ready to drop in. Jegs sells this for about $19K. I figure if I save up for a year plus my bonus for next year I could just about swing it. By then I should have most of my "good" stuff sold to help offset the cost.

Anyways, really just looking to see what you all think. Thanks.

 

Dennis, does that t56 I bought off you need to be rebuilt?

Hey Kyle, for what you need it for, it will be just fine. I would need a rebuild/upgrade for what I am planning... 700+hp to the wheels.

something more mild, like my old 450 hp 390 and it should be just fine.

When I was thinking of keeping all my SBC stuff I was thinking of having Tick Performance rebuild it with Viper internals to handle the power.

 

Option 5:

Buy a vette... best move i made.

 

I plan to do that in addition to the camaro. Camaro first though. Built not bought add they say.
