Well I am just about finished with changing the transmission and adding the LPP long tubes and Y. Here is a quick clip of the 2nd start

Thanks for the help I got from several of you. It helped me alot.
Next up: Time to come up with a plan for the spare LT1 I have to make about 400 hp to the rear wheels. I look forward to talking with several of you again to get some opinions and reviews.

Sounds nice & healthy! Any other mods you got besides the exhaust and KM?

It has a bbk TB on it but the motor is stock. I do have another LT1 that I want to build for it but I am not sure what I want to do with it yet. I'm not sure weather I want to stroke it or just do a 355 with a set of aftermarket heads.
Belive it or not this motor has 90K on it. I do have some kind of knock that I have not been able to locate yet. It only dose it as the motor is warming up and then it stops.

Depends on if you wan't a "revver" or a torque monster. I always liked motors that made power way up top, even if low end torque is down a little bit. The sound of 68-6900rpms just does something to me!

As far as the knock, a little valve tap or possibly the lifters
would be my best guess.
