It looks like the 5.0L/2.3L TVS combo is kickin just as much butt as last years fully forged 4.6L/TVS running at 15psi. Too bad she couldnt get it into the 10's, maybe with better weather and a few more tuning tweaks she can rip off a 10 second pass without even changing the 3.15 rear gear. I wonder if Roush is going to run high boost fully forged with their 5.0L stage 3, if so that would be plain nuts on the streets.

Damn, a 125 trap on a tvs @ 5psi? That's insane. Makes me wonder what the big twin screw cars will be doing, let alone the turbo and centri cars.

It should be able to hit 1,000whp

Holy hell, shame traction isn't an issue. Camaros tend to be sexy as hell. Camaros boosted.... DAMN!!!!

Now let's go kill some caymans, evos, stis and bmws....

Our latest time slip...



It really needs a set of cams to get the full power out of the current mods. There is no weight reduction other than removing the spare tire and jack and of course the wheels/tires. The car weighed 3,680 lbs.

I think it has 10's in it as it sits, it just needs some suspension tweaks. It would easily do it with a slick or weight reduction.



Bad Quality Video

I thought I posted the mod list, but I don't see it and don't want to be misleading. The car has stock valve springs and cams, so cams will definitely help, but it shifts at 7,800 rpms.

Mods are:

Livernois Motorsports 12:1 pistons
Livernois Motorsports Stage 1 CNC Heads w/ stock cams
FRPP Prototype Manifold
Stainless Works Headers, Catted Mid-Pipe, and Catback
Steeda CAI
4.10 Ring & Pinion
Circle D Stall Converter
Livernois Motorsports 1-Piece Aluminum Driveshaft
Livernois Motorsports Dyno Tune
FRPP Springs & Adjustable Shocks/Struts
Drag Radials/Skinnies

I understand this car is running 15:1 compression. Is that correct? With the 12:1 pistons that would require some reduction in the combustion chamber size. Not sure, just asking.

That is the 302 Boss intake from the looks of it.

The compression is 12:1 and the intake is a FRPP prototype.

so, with all bolt ons, a tune, stage 1 heads and frpp intake it makes 441rwhp.

are you guys gonna add 39mm valves, and go serious with the porting and add cams?

you think another 30rwhp is out there? if 475rwhp is max, that isnt really that bad.

We are working on stage 2 and 3 heads now which will have larger valves and upgraded hardware. We are also waiting for cams, so we can put a set in our car as it sits, then test, then swap heads to a stage 3 and see how it does.

I don't think 30 more hp is out of the question. I think if our car was a manual trans, it would make around 470-475 RWHP now.

Here are some photos of the heads.
