ADM Performance 427 Whipple Auto 740rwhp/ 700tq

This is our 3rd build with FloMoCamaro - and what a unique build it is. Yet another great design and build by Andy at ADM Performance customizing the CTS-V / ZL1 belt drive system. The torque on this build is nothing short of spectacular - 700lbs @ 4000rpm. The goal was not about the peak number that most get caught up on, but rather, the torque curve. While we only gained about 20 more peak horsepower, we gained an amazing 60-80lbs of torque throughout most of the curve. The car is just so much more responsive. It's like nite & day - all I can say is WOW!!! We left some wiggle room to grow with the blower pulley sizes and decided to stay a little conservative for now to see what we get at the track. After all, the car is still a daily driver, but can't wait to get it back to the track when the weather cools down a bit.

Build #1 - L99/LS3 Conversion, Stage 2 Cam, Maggie - 650rwhp/580tq
Build #2 - Lingenfelter 417, Stage 3 Cam, Whipple - 720rwhp/650tq
Build #3 -


LSX 427
Forged Crank, Rods & Pistons
Stage 3 Cam
Whipple 2900 Supercharger @ 15-16lbs. Boost
LSA Belt Drive Assembly
4 Rib A/C
6 Rib Power Steering, Water Pump & Alternator
10 Rib Supercharger Pulley

ADM Dual Fuel Pump & ID 850 Injectors

I really like what you have done, especially with using the LSA pulley accessories and having an 8 rib belt driving only the blower. You have got to be one of the first to do this upgrade. Being conservative is not a bad thing right now and when cooler weather is here you might do a pulley change.

That pulley set up is very creative... Doing it first, seems to be the trend at ADM Performance.

Very nice! I always enjoy Andy's builds, more times than not it's a first time done. I'm on my third motor also! I think third times a charm. The LSX427 is just hard to beat. The best thing I like is the detail. The build detail is enough to win at the car shows but the power it puts out is enough to win at the drag strip! Congrats! Why don't you plan on going to the Camaro Nationals in Houston with Keith and I? It would be a great place to put down that 9 second run.
