Calling all LT1 3rd gens

I want to know how fast you guys actually are instead of just hearing "oh it's the best setup." Do ANY of you have timeslips or anything?????

Uh oh... someone thinking about doing the LT1/T56 swap into a 3rd gen?

No, I just want to know how fast they ACTUALLY are.

yeah i wanna know too, maybe in da future i will do it, wheni find a non rusted out camaro 3rd gen that will qualify for the swap....

I just happen to have a complete '94 LT1 engine for sale if anyone is interested..... I'm located in Virginia. I also have a used .490 lift Lunati flat tappet cam & lifters for you non roller guys... Also a 150 MPH white faced gauge cluster from 93-96 Camaro... and complete front & rear seat set in great shape from the same '94 Camaro. I also have a complete TPI set-up with computer and harness...

1987 IROC 5.7 TPI (L98 Automatic)
1994 Z-28 5.7 LT1 (parting out)

videos, i hate you......




you have a G92 :evillol:

*bump* any of you gone to the track?

sorry no i have never been to a track before, but i have raced supercharged cobra's from a dig before... had a few take me and i beat a few (usually depending on the driver) those things can run mid-low 12's pretty easy... so that gives u an idea where i am...

mannn take it to a track!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i have a factory replacement clutch, all weather tires, and a 10-bolt rear... even when i was racing i took it very easy out of the hole... maybe when i get a few more things upgraded... i know you will shun me but i prefer racing from a roll... less chance of damaging things (as long as you don't wreck!! lol)

lol dont race if your not at peace with breaking something.

haha, i don't have the money to break stuff right now

i'm ready for the possibility, but i like to make the possibility smaller if i can lol

haha yeah i know how that is.

peopel run 11's and 10's on 10-bolts... I run on all weather tires cuz im cheap... and my tranny hs 166k on it :p

next excuse? lol

Newb question, by clutch do you mean the tranny? the master cylinder? Flywheel?

Long live Manual Transmissions!!!!

.... no i mean the clutch itself...

my t56 tranny can hold up to 450hp (rated at)

master cylinder is on the brake system... you may be thinking slave cylinder which is what connects the clutch pedal to the clutch fork, the clutch fork is what seperates the clutch from the flywheel

flywheel is what the clutch makes contact with to connect the driveline

Drvngstorm, hangin and beatin Cobras, damn thats looking really good man. 400hp, those got damn LT1, i gotta get my hands on one.

Very nice, I want that.

damn he did all that and barely even modded that engine... if i spent all that time swappin i'm gonna mod the engine (like i did haha) and actually it seems like a very thrown together job... he even still has the lt1 factory exhaust manifolds and everything on it... decent job... but seems he put it together in a hurry, you could make the underhood more clean and a little less cluttered than that... well i can't criticize too much, he ran f-body accessories on it, which makes it pretty cluttered... plus he used the lt1 intake elbow, which takes away more room... its a decent job, but i think he coulda done better, little changes would have made a lot better job and freed up alot of underhood work room...

on the plus side, that is a very good platform, with a body that is in excellent shape... if anybody didn't want to actually do the swap themselves but wanted to mod the lt1 this would be good... because there isn't anything done to that lt1, lots of improvement room

so are u saying it is better to run the corvette accessories???

well if you want a/c yes... because where the f-body accessories puts the a/c compressor you actually have to beat a dent into the passenger side of the crossmember... and i don't want to compromise my structure, plus i think it cleans up the engine bay a little better... its an opinion thing really

drvngstorm05 i just want to say again that your car is amazing, good job, that hard work paid off and then some.
