With the 1/4 mile et you are running now you should have a nasty little street car.

That is true... and I probably will go the route of a converter to help with low end. I do want to keep low end as smooth as possible given the circumstances, I will have to contact TSP by phone when the time finally comes...

Thank you.It sounds even better in person it has a lot more pop to it.

I told Jason at TSP how the car was going to be used and he put this package together for me.

What kind of change do you notice powerwise? It sounds awesome similar to some of the older cars I dreamed of owning. Also what type of cost investment is this upgrade?

There is a huge difference in the way it feels powerwise.I gained 75rwhp with the H/C thru the converter . The whole package is very impressive to me.I gained 121rwhp over stock with VVT-3 cam,CNC'ed heads,LT headers,CAI thru the Yank 3200 converter.The Heads,cam and converter package including the DOD delete kit and every gasket,bolt etc needed was $3100.I baught the headers used for $500 and the CAI used (new in the box) for $250.

This is the cam I am looking at after I get a TC.
Sounds great.

A good friend of mine is the service manager at a local Chevrolet Dealer.

Sounds awesome! I would have a Chevy dealer install mine also. I know a dealer in my area with a high performance department and they specialize in corvettes and camaros. They have top notch techs that really know their stuff. Again your camaro sounds amazing. I didn't think you can make an L99 sound that good with VVT. Thanks again for sharing.

Just when I thought I wanted to do an LS3 conversion.

I love this scary, mean rumble sound that will even catch more looks than the car catched now.
