I was bored this afternoon, so I took out the T/A and went for a bit of a drive.
Not too far today, just down to Red Rocks Park. Went to get some new pics with a better background than the driveway.
Some turned out okay, but the car was a little dirty.

in the post of pics, the middle one is absolutely incredible.

red rocks is pretty cool, does anyone else have the incubus dvd from red rocks? i have to say that show (i saw it in indiana, down in the pit) was pretty badass.

The driveway was much better...that way it's faster to hide that hideous thing inside the garage when you're done making those filthy pics ;)

your car looked awfully clean to me.... i liked those pics... i would like to know where you found a road that had no one coming on it so that you could park it in the center, walk out, take a picture and get back in... i say it's photoshopped! :)

Yeah, I was hoping for a pic with a semi in the background about to turn that wreck into a black stain on the highway...:cwm27:


See what you get for all your efforts, Luos? Common, go get some more pics, we can keep this up all day. :evillol:

Don't tell him that! You'll only encourage him to keep it up. Damn!

Now he's going to keep on posting that Pontiac smut all over these boards...he's gotta be stopped!

Exactly. You've shoehorned a SOHC D-series Honda motor into your Pontiac to make the worlds worst hybrid. :rofl:

So you did all that work riping your car apart, building an enigne, taking pics..then you go and throw that p.o.s out and then put a 4cyl engine in........genuis:lol:

Any way great pics and your car is beautiful....for a pontiac.

:lol:

Actually, that is kinda special. How does it seem to be holding up under the new pressure? Also, I've been kicking around the idea of changing out the TH400 in my 71 to the 6 spd from the LS1 cars some day. Do you think this would be worth while?

Edit: Oh yeah, what are the specs on your heads and your cam?

Tranny is doing fine.
Clutch is holding anything I throw at it as well.

Heads = Patriot Stage III LS6 (2.08/1.60)
Cam = 248/254 629/622 113

Wish I had that kind of background for pics of my car, Ohio just doesn't have very many mountains! If you've never been to Glacier National Park I recomend you go there, I liked Glacier better then Yellowstone, I was out there 2 yrs ago on my Harley. Looking good and sounding good Mr. Luos!

Hmmm, I wish my heads flowed that well. Mine are the standard 2.02 1.60 valves. Your cam is also agressive as hell and I'm assuming 113 is the centerline. That's the only way your getting any vacuum at idle and even then, i bet it's rough.

Well, if you're putting out 500-515 whp, then I guess I can expect some where around 440-450 whp then. If so I'd be more than happy.


Oh yeah, some guy with a red ws6 on my Cobalt site saw one of your posts that I put over there when I copy/pasted the Forum idiot stuff (burnt rice) for a laugh. He said something about you having a different motor swapped in, which you do, and that you're a turd and your car is slow...:rolleyes:

Remember...even with the hybrid I do have a 402ci. :lol:

Heads flowed 314 at .600 lift.

So, let me get this straight...from what I gather you took the same 6.0 (366ci I believe) that I have in my 2500 HD truck, then bored and stroked it out to 402ci. I've heard nothing but good things about using this motor to make big power. It's not really even a small block from what I've heard, it's some where inbetween a big block and a small block, right?

What compression ratio are you running as well? 10.5?

And yeah, I'll PM you the link to that site.

06-22-2006, 07:08 PM
It's still a LS style block though, just a bigger bore version.

And post that shit here, I wanna see what homeboy has to say, I need a good laugh. :(

I've heard the block itself is actually thicker than a typical small block though.

Yea, think I saw that tardbox on AR.com as well as DD.us.

He says you're a "tardbox" and have "shitty" 60 foot times. Heh.

I guess he forgets that A) Luos lives in Colorado where the Altitude kills his times and B) Traction, can't launch it hardcore styles with the stock 10bolt with that kind of power.

Guy obviously doesn't know a thing about cars.

My favorite is that he called the 402 a slow powerplant. Haha. That motor is way ahead of the LS1.
