Re: Which engine

Here we go...

1. LS1 swaps CAN be done for under $2,000.
2. V6 F-bodys CAN run 12's for under $2,000.

The End.

You forgot about the Lt1 swap.

Re: Which engine

I have experienced it, and it's just not for me. I have driven 3 different cars for my friends at the track with nitrious. Yes its nice to feel the torque and all but if it's not there all the time I just don't see the point. Wouldn't want to have to refill my bottle and make sure its on and at a certain temperature, purge, blah blah. I like to just turn the key and GO. :)

You want to know what makes N20 the best power adder out there in my opinion? Its not run all the time.. I have had Turbo cars, Supercharged cars and N20 cars and for me, who hardley ever goes to the track and just loves driving my car N20 is perfect because you get the great gas miles with it and it drives normally with it as well.. Whenever your not spraying your car runs like it is stock and for a daily driver that is perfect. I use to love getting 30mpg and being able to make over 450hp with a flip of a switch.. The track in VA was 100 miles away and I use to fill up before we left with all the other V8 F-bodies, Run at the track all day long and get back to Va Beach with at least a 1/4 if not more of fuel left. We did have to stop on the way back for all the LS1/Lt1 guys to refill with fuel!!

Turning the key and having instant power is great but like you said its on all the time even in the rain, Snow, Cold roads, and at the times were you dont need it..

Well I've got some pretty *****in headers.

11's in a stock LS1 car with bolt ons and 200lbs of weight gone?? I call BS on that one.. If you have every bolt on imaginable, 4800 stall, 9inch with slicks, Full drag suspension and the car weighing in at around 3200 with you in it I could believe..

Haven't really followed my progress with the car, huh. Yank SS4000 (flashes to about 4500), ET Street Radials, nearly full suspension, gear, all the goodies. Engine mods are only OBX (ebay) headers, LS6 intake, ported tb, 85mm MAF, 85mm Lid, ram air scoop.

Re: Which engine

Oh, and you don't need a damned 9 inch. Why do people keep insisting this point. I've NEVER hurt a stock 10 bolt EVER. I've gone 1.50 60's all day on the 125k mile unopened stock 10 bolt in the car right now.

I shredded one cam only...

And since when did all those goodies only cost 100$ ...you mean to tell me that every joe blow that does up a v8 gets all those goodies for their car for 100$? Because that's what you told me is invested in it??

Your story just keeps changing...

Re: Which engine

Oh please, tell me what makes my car not streetable. I need a muffler to be legal. I could probably drive it as is, since it is quieter than most LS1's I've heard lately..

I would say this!!

3266lbs. Please tell me what is gutted out of my car. HVAC, Front bumper support, seats, power steering pump.

Also you say your race weight, which is with you in the car I would believe is 3250lbs.. That means you car is around 3050 without you in it if you weigh in around 200lbs!! Thats about 400lbs of weight savings on a stock 99 Camaro!! Thats alot..

I come on here to follow the progress of V6 cars with V6's in them and really dont care what a LS1 swap camaro runs.. Thats just me.. But from the mods listed and the amount of weight reduction you have done to your car I believe that your car is a 11sec capable car.. Just not legal to drive on the street at all, and you shouldnt go around saying its streetable when there are no bumper supports, Manual steering, and God knows what else is missing from it.. Does your insurance company know its a V8 car now? How does that work with car insurance as far as how much you pay?

I blew 2 10 bolts in my V6 and 1 in my 2002 WS6.. They are crap... Of course all of my cars are Manuals..
