Shout out to GPI, Bo White, Circle D, Hooker Headers - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Pro Stock John · 08-25-2015, 12:36 PM

I haven't posted any big updates this year so I thought I'd share some of my progress.

I ran a Stock Internal setup in my 2010 Camaro SS L99 for a couple of years, and went a best of 11.84 and 115 in ol' Project Heavy Chevy.

When the time came to step it up, I turned once again to GPI and Bo White. I sourced a GPI VVT SS3 cam and had a set of heads ported by Bo White.

We all decided it was time to go with more converter as well. So I swapped out the CD 3200 and in went the CD 3800 (4C triple).

I dynoed 463rwhp on a Mustang dyno with all of the above parts, hitting peak power around 6400 RPMs.

Hooker Headers let me try their complete exhaust system, the Blackheart system, which allowed me to go from 1 3/4 headers and 2.5" exhaust to 1 7/8 headers and a full 3" system.

First time out, 11.6@117. Noticed a lot of things to change in the tune.

Second time out, 11.4@118. A little better. Fixed a few small things.

Third time out, 11.3@120. Better.

Fourth time out, still fixing stuff (shift points), 124 mph. 93 pump gas, trunk gutted, no seats removed and no extreme weight reduction. 18" NT05Rs which won't be the tires I'll run in the later fall. 17x7s and 215s up front.

I'll share a slip when I run 10's.

Thanks everyone!

GPI for cam, constant advice, base tune
Bo White, ported throttle body and heads
Circle D, for the torque converters
GM for the 3.91 gear
Hooker Headers
Manna Motorsports
Timmy 2 Stage for Dyno and track tuning
LSR for suspension parts

More to come!

Thanks guys.

Stock diff and axles yes.

I have spares of both though sitting in the garage.

I'm thinking to pull my axles at the end of the season to check the splines.

Local buddy did an SS1, and he did 45x rwhp on a Mustang load dyno. So I think you are fine.
