[bighead29058]

[ericg83z]

dude thats a sick cam! ive got a 280H goin into my third gen hoping to get 13s with the new 355 at TMP

[DIPC2C]

what all did u have to do to the intake to make it work cause i'm doing the same thing and i just so happen have that same intake sitting around collecting dust i was going to buy the gmpp one but seen your video if u would tell me a little info on the intake thanks

[alpofootage323]

hey i wanted to do this to my car but i have 2 question i see u said u used the Edelbrock Victor Jr Intake. why dident u use the GM LT1 carb intake? and was you still able to use the old school distributor?

[ivanruiz89]

how did you modify that intake? i'm thinking of doing this conversion on my 96 LT1 but i'm finding that i'm very limited on intake manifolds. for the build i'm wanting to do i'd need to port the hell out of it

[firechicken76]

why carb it?

[matthewgleason75]

@firechicken76 because the gmpp intake flows much better. you dont have to wire all that crap up and you dont have to buy a custom harness. also the carb has much better throttle response.

[firechicken76]

@matthewgleason75 I cant see it flow any better than a fast 90, and the sacrifice you make on fuel economy is a big one.

[ericg83z]

@firechicken76 no computer

[firechicken76]

@ericg83z and thats a good thing? there is a reason every thing has fuel injection and computers now, much more efficient and able to fine tune to a greater extent than carb, Nothing against carb motors, I just dont like seeing motors that were originally FI, turned into carb just because its easier to work on and you dont need the knowledge that you do for tuning FI cars.

[ericg83z]

@firechicken76 i totally agree with you on everything , im personally a carb guy cuz i really have a hard time with wiring diagrams on computer cars but the idea of fi is really good technology.

[matthewgleason75]
