They converted it to a LT1 6SPD.
lt1?
why in gods name wouldn't you take the extra step and do an ls1
Theres documented builds (bolt ons) where they've made 1,000+ hp on a stock ls1 and 4.8l (truck motor the 290 cube v8) with nothing but a 90mm turbo and a take off corvette intake
the one that I read about had 60 documented dyno pulls on the stock bottom end, they didn't expect it to make it past the 2nd run after they tuned it, was a 4.8l at that, the LS motors are something fierce
I kept a smallblock 350 to atleast be some what "time correct" with what it had in it, because you could optionally order a 350 motor from the dealer
Whenever i blow this one up though its gonna probably be a ls9 that will go under the hood.
