[LT1] Top end performance upgrades [PART2]
Part 1 is --> HERE
Following Bruce's advice I contacted a guy named "baldturbofreak" that hangs out in the forced induction forum. Wow, did I ever find the right guy for the job!!! This guy has a C4 that looks identical to mine on the outside & looks bone stock and is running the most insane setup I've ever seen. 1300+ HP Turbocharged motor in that thing. Ultimate sleeper. From what i understand Bruce has a very similar setup with an even bigger turbocharger
As for my engine rebuild adventure, Here is the list of parts that I went with-
LT4 Hotcam Kit
Trickflow pushrods
Cloyes Timing chain replacement set
Felpro Head Gasket
Felpro timing cover gasket set
MOATES Memory adapter for chip
As far as my $500 part budget, right now Im at $934
He's working on it today. Can't wait to see how it runs
I will have TONS of pics soon to share with you guys soon.
Thanks for all the suggestions in my first thread-you guys are really great
