I have one for sale if anybody needs one. Owhite3003 is going to try and upload my dyno sheet. Appreciate it bud!

Your saying your making 780 hp on the stock pump?

The ZL1 is down at Rapid Motorsports in Birdsboro, PA. Mike is a well known LS engine builder/tuner and his 99 Trans Am was the first LS1 to go into the 9s. He will be building and tuning the car. I will also be using Mike's custom grind blower camshaft. Mikey's cams always make good power and he is quite popular with the F-body crowd. Jeremy Formato of Fasterproms will be porting/milling the heads, blower, snout, and throttle body. My goal is to get as much power out of the stock components as possible. I will post up dyno results when it is done and looking forward to going to the track when it gets warm out.

Supporting Mods-
Metco 2.50 Pulley
10 % Lower Pulley
Kook 1 7/8s Headers with O/R pipes
Ron Davis Heat Exchanger
RotoFab CAI
ID850s
Brian Tooley Springs
Mighty Mouse Solutions Catch Can

I am sure I am forgetting something.---Update-I am not forgetting anything.

What are the specs on that "Magic Stick?" Lol I'm gathering parts currently for my build and I'm trying to figure out what cam I want.

Yes sir, that is what I am saying. I had a KB BAP because I thought for sure I would need it.

You will have to contact Mike. info@rapidmotorsports.com. He is pretty quiet about his specs. Also, I would look at having Jeremy Formato of Fasterproms port your heads, blower, snout, and throttle body. He hand ports the heads and are specifically designed for forced induction. If you cannot make it to Reading, PA because of distance (Pittsburgh is 5 hours from me) I know Jeremy will be in Gettysburg in April sometime.

I would love to hear how that is happening!

Everybody else says that is impossible...
If not then there should be no reason why ID1300's and a BAP couldn't support E85 and 600-625whp...

Nice numbers either way!

Yeah man, once the snow is cleared, we will have to meet up. I got to get the car inspected and I want to throw on a set of Mickey Thompson ET Streets.
