I think the heads were really killing this setup. Fortunately this thing had something break internal and lost oil pressure and developed a big knock. So now I'm going to build a 402. I need to decide which heads I'm going to run and get it put together.

Thank you Ls3guy!

Quickest I've been in the 1/4 is 12.89 @117. It should go quicker if I can get it out of the hole better. My 60 was like 2.23. Trex isn't bad for everyday driving if you have 4.11's. If you don't mind a little surge at lower speeds and lower rpms.

What exhaust do you got running there ?

[LPMSS]

@88camaroallday

The exhaust is as follows; Pacesetter longtubes, 3" collectors, into a 3" x pipe, then into 16" long Dynomax Race Bullets 3" in & 3" out and thats it. No turndowns after the race bullets.

No flycutting is necessary with the trex.

Damn, you still made pretty decent numbers with those 853's on there. Are you thinking about at least getting soem 241's or 243's?

And nice sounding car :)

@xZZxTakedown

I'm thinking about running this setup until it blows and then building a stroker or something capable of 500RWHP all motor.

Just 400 hp with those mods,? You sure ? My buddy has a trex cam and long tubes only making 415, must be a weak tune

how is TR claming 451/406 won a 99 TransAm with stock unported cylinder heads, Thunder Racing's T-ReX v.2 camshaft, and a full package of bolt-on parts, including long tube headers, pulley, LS6 intake manifold, Whisper lid, ported throttle body. if your only getting 400 u need a better tune possibly?... btw this car sounds awesome i love it....
