My LS1 Build.....
Well...I've already begun sourcing parts and I've decided to just stick with one manufacturer to eliminate confusion. I've settled on Texas Speed And Performance. I called them today and they were extremely helpful. Here is their recommendation for my application....
- Texas Speed Torquer V.3 Camshaft; 231/234 .643"/.598" 111 LSA.
- LS6 Intake with LS1 injectors and 78mm throttle body stock MAF.
- Texas Speed Stage I heads with double spring kit.
- Texas Speed & Performance Chromemoly Pushrods.
- GM LS2 Timing Chain.
About $2200 in parts. Not bad. He said this would be good for around 425rwhp and about 480 at the crank and would also have a nice lopey sound to it but would not be hard to idle. I also bought a brand new LS6 intake kit on eBay for $350 w/free shipping.
Can any of you LSx gurus look that over and see if you concur with the set up? Are the power figures right? I'd appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.
