Now on to the 2010 build.

2009 was a VERY frustrating year, First the built trans blew up the opening weekend of PRP 2009 then we had 2 different cam setups in the car and it did not put down the numbers it should have (12.4 N/A, should have been in the high 11's)... When Ed from VA Speed ran my car on the dyno it only managed 406rwhp through a locked converter N/A, Ed pointed out that there was an airflow problem somewhere.

So for 2010 I am going to an L92/LS3 top end setup with a custom grind cam for the application.

Things I will be adding:
L92 heads milled 0.030 to retain stock compression
LS3 Intake manifold
LS3 Injectors
Custom grind L92 cam
25% Underdrive pulley
LS7 Lifters
Lingenfelter/Walbro high flow fuel pump
Svede Speed Over the Radiator Cold air intake
Billet oil catch can
And Edcmat-l1 will be dyno tuning it in April

Some parts porn:

Nice! What kind of times/numbers are you looking for?

[SK360]

On the new setup I would be happy to see ~450-460rwhp N/A and close to 600 on a 150 shot.

Just want to see 11's N/A and 10's on spray.

Dropping heads off at the machine shop tomorrow morning to get milled 0.030

Nice setup! Makes me reconsider my GTO... eh... not really. ;)

Interesting to see several Lsx people here.

Car is running!
Installed this past weekend:
Milled 0.030 L92's, LS3 intake, LS3 Injectors, VA Speed custom grind LSR Lobe cam, Summit Underdrive pulley, new LS7 lifters
PTV was great, we had out doubts because the cam is pretty big for this setup but we had ample room.

The car will hit the rollers next month when Ed from VA Speed comes to town to tune it. Numbers will be posted then.

Car sounds good Matt. Congrats

[SK360]

Thanks Ray!

Idle will smooth out once tuned... Can't wait to see what she does on the rollers at the end of the month.

[SonofaBish]

very nice....

still using the same cam as in the OP or a new one?

[SK360]

New one that was designed for the heads Bish... This one is high 220's intake/high 230's exhaust, 61x/62x lift on a 114 lsa ground on comps new LSR lobes, very wide duration split, smaller for the big intake runners/valves and bigger for the smaller exhaust flow numbers.

[SK360]

Getting closer!

[SK360]

Almost ready for the dyno! Need to tighten up some fittings and lines when I get home and swap the catless midpipes on and she is ready. Should have numbers by Wednesday or Thursday.
