Rapid Motorsports ZL1 Build- 784rwhp/757rwtq

[Dutchman427]

The heavy hitters finally came out of the shadows today and I do not mean that in a arrogant way what so ever. I am glad I was wondering when you guys were going to comment! Canadian and 2Nassty, I know you are M6 guys. Don't expect miracles right away, but I am hoping to get half decent at running the 1/4 mile. As far as the #'s, as stated before, I was quite shocked. I was hoping for low 700s on both rwhp and rwtq. Mike was surprised as well.

Also, are you still using the stock short block? Your car is running exactly what my goal is.

My car runs a BAP and ID850 injectors. I run methanol injection which helps with the fueling. Stock short block with 48,000 miles on it so far. My TC is a Yank triple disc with a 2600 stall. FSP blower cam, Matt at FSP has the specs on it. I'm making 15.5 lbs of boost. Have done all the usual mods, Pfadt tri y LTs, cai, ported throttle body. Heads, blower and snout were all ported by Lee Latozke racing head service. I think that's everything. My car just works. My best run of 9.82 was run with a DA of 1244. It should go faster but have not had a cool day to run when the track was good. I'm hoping to go 9.69 if I ever get that right combo of good track prep and cool air. My only vehicle and I drive it every day.

Do you run a drag pak? I will be running ET streets on the back of my 10 spokes for this summer. In fall, I would like to buy some Weld RT/S's.

The only # that will matter is your trap speed right off the bat. Your ET will be less important. Trap speed =HP. Saw a TT 427 camaro last year run 11.70 @140+mph. Do I believe his car was putting down the 900rwhp he claimed, yes, it was a manual car and he couldn't build boost off the line. I've run 11.10@133 and 10.80 at 132 trap speed wasn't much affected. My car has also run 135 in "good" air. 2200 DA. Like I said Dutchman I'm not trying to rain on your parade but unless there is something you're not telling it is hard to believe. Anyways, looking forward and will be following for your results.

Thanks for the info, do you know the size of the upper and lower pulleys that your running to make 15.5 lbs boost. Thanks Mike

The methanol also increases your octane by quite abit and allows you to run a lot more timing. Plus cools your air charge. Both resulting in more power that can't be had with just pump gas. 91 or 93

No man, you are not raining on my parade nor am I hiding any modifications. Lets see how it goes. I will be running on the stock wheels for this year. I respect your response though. You bring a lot of good information in your posts.

What does your car dyno?

On race fuel with dual pumps with dual baps no where near Dutchy.

I'm not really questioning the hp numbers. I don't really care about dyno #s anyway. I do find it interesting he can run that much boost on 91 and have the fuel pump to support it. I'm sure the tuner will post soon to enlighten us.

There wasn't anymore to my question than face value. Your car also runs what I am shooting for, the same as Mrvenicess. He said his car dynoed just over 700, was mearly curious what yours dynoed.
