you need a TSP torquer v.3

















ok, ok, not THAT big

serioiusly though the biggest i would go in a 4.8 is a tr220 ( 220/220 114 or 112 lsa) 112 for the lope

good luck

Your going to need TQ @ lower RPM due to your short stroke/smaller motor. TT3000 isn't a very big converter. A 220 cam will MPH good (HP), but the shift extensions of the TT is pretty weak. 1-2/2-3 shifts will drop back down to 4000 RPM approx. This isn't any good. That big cam isn't make BIG HP at 4000 RPM, nor big TQ because the duration is too large. Pick your cam wisely. 220 isn't the magic number for every combination. Good luck.

is it a complete LS1, as in including the accessories and intake and if not, to swap to car intake you need a intake manifold, idler relocation bracket, f-body water pump with truck pulley pressed onto it, fuel rails, injectors

congrats on the ls1 find

it has the crank pulley, and waterpump with pulley, intake and fuel rails and injectors as far as i know!! I'll probably use the truck accessories and get the relocation bracket, i think that would be easier
