1999 Trans Am LQ4 370 cold start, not tuned

[txh0tb0i972]

what rods and crank did you use? im in the process of building a 370?

@txh0tb0i972

They are teh stock rods and crank from the 05' block. I purchased the LQ4 from a very low mileage 2005 2500HD.

@LS1gun

sweet! im doing the same thing..... have you gotten any numbers dyno or track?

[LS1gun]

@txh0tb0i972

no numbers yet as right after I got the 370 in, I bought the Strange S60 for it and had to go through the break-in period. I will be getting some this spring though. FWIW- I know my buddy says it runs very comparable to his Procharged LS1 hawk on 8lbs of boost.

@funguy7979

Will do. I also have a new Strange S60 rear in. Installed front QA1's last night.

They are 315's on the rear.

what color is that?

[LS1gun]

Medium Blue Metallic. The color was only offered in 1999 on about 2000 Firebird/Trans Am's.

[funguy7979]

love the exhaust coming out from under the car pointin down. sweet.

[funguy7979]

how much power are you puttin down?

[LS1gun]

Nothing confirmed from a dyno, but the guy that spec'd the heads/cam, the tuner and the guy that spec'd the shortblock build all agreed within the 475rwhp range.

I will get confirmation after I get a new (stronger) rear axle put in this spring.
