ZR440 Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Oh boy, another guy with a T/A here. Look out Dean! I'd like to get a Firehawk and throw my turbo on it. It's happy hour somewhere in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLopez Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 A 2002 model no less!! I've heard that some (?) of those came with the LS6 intake instead of the usual LS1 intake (more airflow!), and the cam used on them is a little more aggressive. Bottom line is about 30 more HP over the previous model years. We're talking about 330-340 rear wheel HP from a stocker! Very nice! (That's about 380 - 390 crank HP for those not familiar with RWHP) ZR, sometimes I wonder if I should have gone with some form of forced induction, either a blower or turbo... This big whopper cam I'm using to feed the big cubic inches I have is frustrating sometimes at cold startup. It likes to stall until it starts warming up. I'm still working on the tuning for that part - haven't got it quite right yet. I need to make a trip down to the track to see what kind of times she'll rip now!

ZR440 Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 My boss' brother-in-law went out to a Gale Banks party about a month ago. It would have been sweet to pick his brain on forced induction for that engine of your's. It's happy hour somewhere in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZR440 Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 And I'm guessing that old car has a 396 or 454? It's happy hour somewhere in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZR440 Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 A LS6? Original? It's happy hour somewhere in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLopez Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Ahh, the memories... I used to have a '67 Chevelle. Not an original SS 396, but it became one! That was the first and only Chevy I've ever owned, and I loved that car! But, sadly, someone else lusted after it and I woke up one morning to find it missing from the driveway where I parked it. Eventually, the police recovered what was left. Took me a while to get over that heartbreak. DeanDahn Boh Nim - Black-Brown BeltKuk Sool Won"Dream as if you'll live forever.

ZR440 Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Car thieves should be stoned to death in public. They're nothing but garbage to society. It's happy hour somewhere in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
