My LS1 Build.....

[trapin]

Well, I ended up with the following.....



LS1 stock bottem end
Patriot CNC ported LS6 heads with 918 springs 2.00/1.55
Thunder Racing 224/224 .563/.563 114 camshaft
Thunder Racing Hardened pushrods 7.8"
ARP Head bolts
ARP Rod bolts
LS6 ported oil pump from Texas Speed
LS2 Timing Chain
LS6 PVC system
LS6 intake
Ported and modified throttle body from Fastproms
Stainless Works long tube headers

I had forgotten to replace my timing chain sprockets so I hope they don't give me any problems. I have no idea what I'm going to get for power. I've heard anywhere from 360-420 rear wheel horsepower depending on the tune and which side of the bed my engine decides to wake up on the first time I go to start it. We'll see.

Thanks for asking.

Thats a nice combo, I have no doubt you'll be on the 400whp+ side.

Tony, be sure to break those valve springs in. What you'll want to do is just start the car and let it warm up for about 20 minutes. Then just shut it off and wait til it's cold again. Drive it normally after warming it up the next time. basically baby it a couple times before you do any dyno runs or hard pulls. Comp has had problems with those springs but people seem to be ok if they don't beat on them right away. The more heat cycles you give them before you get into it the better.
