He shows up to a couple of our meets around here. The car runs good and not a bad daily driver either.

Over the 2 years. Lot's of stuff. But, plenty of little nagging things. I think the last time i saw the car back in March. He did some nice burnout and shredded the blower belt. Just seemed everytime he did anything something broke. Anyways i'm glad it has a new home and is still ripping up asphalt. This is his build thread. The car was originally built by Torq. Later down the road it went to Redline then back to Torq i believe.

Nice. She is a beast. I was always excited seeing the progression he made from stock to 9's. there are a ton of videos of this car on youtube under Vigoa or Tri County.

950rwhp?

Nightmare2012 · 08-08-2013, 08:43 PM

Damn 950 no wonder he breaks things lol OK serious question at what rpm would a cam with 31.50 degrees of overlap start making power.

Nightmare2012 · 08-08-2013, 08:44 PM

Would I have to go to a bigger stall if I go with this cam?

That would depend on runner sizes, compression, headflow, intake to name a few.

You usually pick a stall where your cam tq peaks.

Nightmare2012 · 08-08-2013, 09:41 PM

well thats the heads with titanium valves http://www.texas-speed.com/p-488-prc...cfm-heads.aspx and my compression will be 11.56 stock ls7 intake manifold(unless i can use my ls3 which i doubt)with stock ported tb (and looking for a used ls7 intake manifold just so ppl know and if they can send me pms ill be glad to take it off there hands.)

litle88 · 08-08-2013, 09:53 PM

So are you getting an Ls3 stroker 427 or an Ls7.

Because with those heads you'll need a minimum 4.125 bore.

CHMSC · 08-08-2013, 09:54 PM

Any suggestions on how to get an elite catch can apart lol I know how but the freaking thing is stuck as hell. Might have to take it out and put it in a vise. Any other ideas?

Nightmare2012 · 08-08-2013, 09:56 PM

an ls7 stroker since it would be more reliable.
