Silverbullet project
Well I decided after someone asked me if I had a build thread on my car. I haven't posted stuff on here of my newest mods so im doing it now. I got a 91z28 that recently I swapped in a lq4 with ls3 top end and with a 4l60e. Im currently right now in the process if widening my HRE im gonna make the fronts 19x10 and rears are 20x13". Looking to install 285 tires up front and some 345s in the rear. To be able to clear them im going to be going wide body kit all around and probably with flares aw well. Well enough talking here are some pics of where im at right now.

Haven't updated this thread so thought I might well I finally got the car running with the LSA supercharger. Gotta say it looks like if it belongs in our cars. Hoping to have it dyno tuned soon to upload some numbers.

Re: Silverbullet project
Cool thread. I too am putting wide tires and an LSA in my camaro. I did a mini tub, souring for enough room for 335s. Might end up 325s.
Was the motor new? Can you explain more about the cam swap? Stock one had issues? I plan to pick up a connect and cruise LSA and tremec 6 speed from GM.

Re: Silverbullet project
Well car aint currently lsa anymore. I had the balancer spin on the crank after it got dynoed. Back in May my final numbers where 450rwhp but had maxed out injectors. I had to run a walbro 400 fuel pump. Car now is going through a different setup. I had to deal with too many belt slip issues with the supercharger main reason why i decided now to go all NA.
