Its gonna be ugly though... There wont be any paint on the sides. The cockpit will be surrounded in insulating materials, both for electric charge and heat. The sides are going to have to be flat... its gonna be ugly but fast enough to out run a 22. were talking sub 1s here.

i think he had 408hp in his sig, he said that it added 100+hp with 8lbs boost. i think he might have said that he was thinking about building up his engine for 15lbs of boost, or at least he was talking about it

[FormulaLT1]

408, was that wheel?. Cause if its crank. I have more than that.

[Nate355RS]

i'm just goin off what i remember, 408hp 435tq, he had it all in his sig but i don't remember his handle. i think he said he added 130hp so it might be at the wheels

[Link85x]

Shouldn't it be you Formula? You said you can break the tires loose in the triple digits, right? You gots like 500hp+, right?

im gonna have the fastest ride, im gonna stuff a 502 big block in there im gonna have it bore and stroked to 550cid and im gonna run like 35 psi on my turbos + im gonna have my car custom done in carbon fiber, wanna see fast? my car will disintagrate on takeoff.

[Nate355RS]

y'all will probably call bs on this but it's true, i know a guy with a 95 lt1 that i'm gonna try to get to join the site, he said that the only thing he didn't change about his engine was the block. it's got about 475-500 hp, and he said he built it to handle a 300 shot but he's only gonna run a 200. if he gets on here it's gonna be hard to beat. i'll try to get the specifics of what he did, it's a straight nasty ride.

[FormulaLT1]

I said nearly up to tripple digits but but I also said its mostly from the shift kit, on down shifts it spins them real easy pretty far up but I am sure I don't have more than 500 horse, I have pretty close though. Estimating on my current set up. I should have between 475 - 485 at the flywheel. Probably like 400 or so at the wheels.

Eh....bottle.

I believe it, I have forged internals on a 383 4 bolt main LT1 and its right around there although I wouldn't touch that much nos maybe half that.

[Nate355RS]

i know i ain't gonna ride in it when he gets it hooked up to the bottle, that thing about gave me a heart attack last time i rode in it

[Viper_Storm]

its stryker ss

407rwhp/429rwtq
13.71 @103 mph (before turbo)

^thats whats in his sig, btw the front of his car looks like a neon :S

With your new set up , you will probably be the fastest then but I am sure there is someone in here that can take me. I have seen some worked cars posted in here. Like Willy for those of you that remember him, he had some worked cars.

[Nate355RS]

damn! i was off by 1 on the hp and 6 on the torque, so close

[FormulaLT1]

Well depending on what else he has done, that could be a driver race between the two of us. I also have some drivetrain goodies he may not have.
