L98 options???
OK,it seems like I plan out and work on other people's cars more than my own,but here goes.My brother has a L98 vette(the white one with the black ZR1's),he's ready to start making some power and I don't know shit about whats different about the L98's to the LT1's.Another thing is,were thinking about new rods and pisons for the bottom end,would that do?How strong is the crank?Were looking at the AFR 180cc heads,I don't know what to do about the intake.
Basically,were gonna do a h/c/i car with some good rods/piston and a supercharger.The $'s not really an issue but he don't want to spend a fortune on it.He's already got a bad ass exhaust(thanks Sammy )so he's got a start.
If you had his vette what would you do?This is a street car with a auto tranny that will be built too.Thanks for you opinions.

go with a set of nascar heads on a 383, and just a bit of juice. i've seen that combo put down 550+ a couple of times.
i havent toyed with my l98 though, hell havent even driven it in so long. i wanted to turbo it, plenty of room, toss a TH400 in there...be done with my tranny worries.

Nothing wrong with building a L98.. They can be real potent.

Swap the intake for a lt1's , they gain like 35 hp. Jeremy formato has one and it was stout. Maybe shoot him a pm on RX and ask what was done, he has alot of knowledge on that motor.

Naah, I wanna see that Vette ride out, Vettes are just plain sex, and no matter how fast the FoxBodies get, they'll still never be plain sex.

the intake, is from LT1intake.com or something similar. basically the back of the manifold is setup for an old style distributer setup.
