1989 IROC-Z vs Cobalt SS Turbo

In this video I'm running a modded Cobalt SS Turbo, not sure what it had but it was pretty quick. I'm running a 357, stock Vortec heads, XE274 cam, Edelbrock Vortec performer RPM intake, Holley 600cfm carb, Hedman LT's, 4th gen rear w/ 3.23's, and a T-56 swap. My car ran a 13.8 @ 103 mph this run i believe, had another shit 2.24 60' but that's because of the dead posi unit, the 3.23 gears that make me bog off the line if I hook, bald street tires and a bad tune. She has a lot more in her when I get those items fixed and I can actually get off the line quickly without bogging or spinning like crazy. Cobalt was a low 13 sec car I believe, I lost the timeslip... Also if you watch my small burnout (to clean the tires off) you can see the driver side tire does not spin. (proof of the dead posi)

What kind of HP do you get with that setup? I'm thinking about building up a 3rd gen and am bouncing around power train ideas.

@Kcducttaper1 I have a gen 1 sbc bored.040 over with stock rebuilt Vortec heads, xe274 Cam, forged connecting rods, balanced bottom end, Keith black pistons, Edelbrock performer RPM intake, Holley 600cfm w/ vac secondaries (little small I know) i need like a 650cfm carb. T-56 6-Speed transmission from a 95' Z28 and a POSI/disc rear from the same car. No idea on the hp but it's a lot of fun to drive! Next will be an LT1 swap utilizing a rear mount turbo. I also have a C4 getting an LT1/T-56.

also i cant really drive it, my first stick shift

[v10viper04]

@grandamGT1 I hear ya there, my Camaro is my first stick car too. I've been getting better with launching, the problem is I have to launch very soft or I'll get a one wheel peel. Those Auburn posi units....what a joke....

[grandamGT1]

@v10viper04 yeah same here, its even worse the track im my area isnt even preped one bit....im not sureabout the posi, i donno nothin about rear wheel haha

[v10viper04]

@grandamGT1 O that sucks, I think here it's prepped a little bit, but not much. Yea my Camaro uses an Auburn Posi unit and they wear out. Which blows.. lol

[Kcducttaper1]

@v10viper04 Thanks man. I'm thinking about just dropping in one of the vortec engines (5.3, 5.7 or maybe 6.0) with the fuel shutoff thing for highway MPG stuff. I might drop a cam in it and do some minor intake/exhaust things, but I'm looking to get somewhere around 350-450HP out of it when it's all done.

[grandamGT1]

@v10viper04 always track prep is a major thing....thos camaros are a one wheel peel stock?i dint no that

[grandamGT1]

yeah and a few more goodies wit sticky rubber

[v10viper04]

@grandamGT1 That's not bad for only a tune. Your running low 14's like that? Nice car ya got there, Cobalt SS's are fun to play around with, a black turboed one around here likes to run me. It's a good time, my g/f LOVES Cobalt SS's. She wants one in the worst way,haha I do like the look personally. I would have given a better run but my Camaro has a dead posi so one wheel peels don't help haha.
