Lepa
16th May 2008, 03:31 PM
If anything, if u really wanted to keep it a daily driver i hate saying this, but a ls1 would get u goin fast enough to be happy and still get better mpg than u get right now.

16th May 2008, 03:34 PM
if you wanna give me the $10K to do it then hell yea i'd do it lol...but i'm pretty happy with what i have now...i'm getting full header exhaust in about two weeks so that'll help...

Hillbilly
16th May 2008, 03:35 PM
I think U could use bolts to put the engine in you wouldn't need a welder.

Rex_Driver951
16th May 2008, 03:38 PM

Rex_Driver951
16th May 2008, 03:48 PM

Lepa
16th May 2008, 03:49 PM
but then u don't have to go out of state to get porting done.

Rex_Driver951
16th May 2008, 03:51 PM

Lepa
16th May 2008, 03:57 PM

Yea im siguy2k on there. Hes worth the drive and wait if you are going to go that route though, my motors real strong. I dont know if hes still porting though, he said mine would probly be the last one cuz of the time it takes and not making money on it really. Whats your screen name on there?

Rex_Driver951
19th May 2008, 02:59 PM
Firstgen_Driver...yea i really wanna get this thing ported out and then run a blow through turbo set up on it...but i don't realy have the money now...and i don't really think this is something i wana do myself

19th May 2008, 03:57 PM
Yea porting it i can understand not wanting to do. Building the motor wouldnt be bad at all though. I have read many writeups and it is not that hard. You could always just send your housings off to get ported and then put it all together yourself. FB turbo would be pretty sick and FAST, especially in a clean body like yours.:)

damn I need to start saving up to buy NOS stickers so I can race you...

Fixed


but yea it'd be fun...as far as i've rread i can only run like 9 lbs of boost with the stock rotors...but yea after i get my exhaust finished up i'm looking to get a sterling carb...and then move to porting...and then think about getting the turbo on it

I remember back in the day when I had my 01 v8 mountaineer awd I raced a v6 camaro and firebird one night and actually beat them to 90mph. That mountaineer was slow as aids too. I "Highly" doubt a v6 fbody would even touch a high 17.
