So the funds for my ZR1 went towards wife's new 650i BMW. Hence I am looking to add some HP to my 92 LT1. What kind of "bolt on" Mods I can do to add 50-100HP, I am sure some ECM manipulation is also required, not to mention bigger injectors. Thank you.

I don't think the typical "bolt ons" will get you that much.

Supercharger.

That'll get you 150+ easy. LT-1 prochargers aren't terribly difficult to install either. Sure it's 5k... but damn if it doesn't get the results in a hurry...

There's even better ones out there, for power generation but Procharger's been around a very long time, and I've not seen alot of complaints about the quality, and the kits are complete. It also makes for a VERY pleasing aesthetic package too imo.

You CAN Find them cheaper than this by the way.
