Ive got a cc305 cam. The heads are holding me back. Lloyd or Skardom (dont know his real name) would be the head porters. Lloyd has a lot of praise, Skardom got another member, Dr. Mudge's lt1 to 413wrhp with short tube headers, and a cc305 cam.
I've re-enforced the rear with a TA girdle... I'll wait until it snaps. I think i have a sturdy unit. I rarely launch it hard.
I have traction and believe me, im pretty damn meticulous about my car and keeping it reliable.

Build your motor at a later date while you save, that way you can be the "Al" of LT1's around here.

Marty's car was impressive as hell. He has a freak LT1.
As much as I'd like to have a reason to blow my engine for a bad ass rebuild its not within the buget. I'd hate to have to wait over a year saving money for a rebuild while my car is dead.
Course I could always have the heads and/or nitrous until im ready for the rebuild..... these heads are really holding my car back... 218/150 in/exh. Ported Heads and a good tune the car NA would haul serious ass. I have everything ready for either nitrous or heads. Heads are the weak point right now.
