I'd run a LT1 intake, 219 cam, and AFR heads.

Why would you run that combo? Is the 219 cam set up for the LT-1 intake? AFR heads were too much cash.......

Your car will run just fine the way you want to do it. Everyone has different tastes and pocketbooks.

thanks for the comments guy!!



one other question i have is......when i do the head/cam/intake install come summer, will a set of 3.45 gears help me out, or stick with the 3.07's?

keep in mind i will be getting the car dyno'ed tuned after the install.

curious that with the combo the car should rev to 5800-6000 right? so will a 3.45 gear from a 96 LT-4 vette be beneficial?

88black-z51,
Did you purchase your SR.
I will be selling my Ported SR intake, Ported SR runners and SR plennum very shortly. I am going single plane for a little extra upper end.
Forgot to mention that it is black powder coated.

Default hi

I figured as much, Thanks!

Wasnt sure because I always read how the 3.07's are best for the L-98.
