1) TB Converter
2) Get 6.0 parts together
a) cam research
b) mild ported heads
3) headers
4) magnaflow

I won't do 3 or 4 without 2 so I better get-r-done!

Finish 4.8 build
add some extra air into the engine
650rwhp
first 4.8 into the 11's
then get kicked off the track for going 11.8's and get a cage installed.

 

2004
went from 14.5 to 13.80's on motor.....

the year was spent on Heavy mods ...
2004
1. Stall.
2. gears
3. built 4L65E
4. Cam
5. many more

2005
Hopefully to take this motor as far as it will go N/A
I feel there is still a bit more to get..
looking for mid 13's to low 13's N/A

 

get into the 13's on motor alone
(I know on an ec z71 with 5.3 probably not doable but what the hell else am I going to do)
first got to get trans-go and servos I have installed
next is torque converter
updated nelson tune
e-fans
patriot II heads
cam
posi traction
rims and tires (by this time I will have melted the factory ones)

this is an everyday driver so we'll see cant do anything to radical

any suggestions or comments are welcome

 

Ok let's see here...

Kenne Bell S/C (Hopefully they'll have thier intercooled kit out by then...),

A VHP cam (Haven't quite figured out which one will be best yet, but u guys will be hearin from me later)

Some 6.0 heads, maybe P&P'ed

Headers, either Thorley's or ASM's...

Definately need some Tranny work...

Might throw all this on a 6.0 if I can find a good deal on one...

Tryin to hit some mid 12's on 20's (of course I gotta get the 20's first... )

 

Hmmm...

TB Converter
Shift Kit & Servos
Headers
Another visit to Allen or MTI
And stitching on my head rests

I hope to get into the mid-high 14s.

 

Install all the parts that are sitting in my garage, including 6.0, turbo, stall, etc. I am getting VERY anxious!!!

New Mods for 05'

370ci Long Rod motor
4L80E conversion
60lb injectors and Racetronix dual pump setup
Maybe jump up to the GT70 turbo if my GT67 isn't enough.


Basically whatever it's gonna take to get 650rwhp. Then I will work on cleaning the install up more and making things look pretty.

 

I would like toTake the plunge and buy a Radix.
I have the cam for it, stall, gears, driveshaft and tranny already for it.
All I have to due is put the stock crank pulley back on.
I would be happy with Flyers times with my 5.3.

I don't know how the sts would go with my setup, Tall gears, 212/218 hl cam,
long tubes, etc.. Plus I live in a shitty weather area. Yes I have seen the Taco in the lake video.


That is of coarse I don't find a 6.0l in the mean time. I would rather prefer a mild cam/head 6.0.

My 05 fans should be hear pretty soon. Thats about it.
