Car is looking good man cage is sweet! How much hp do you expect the motor to make? I am still at odds with wanting a cage lol

Here's a video of Joe (RamAir95TA) giving the old LT1 its last run at 4am :)

lol wtf^ cars coming along good man!!! woooot

ps what headers are those you're using? I hope they're not LPP's.... LOL!

Are you actually going straight from a stock LT1 straight to a race built 396? :eek: :drivingwheel:

Yes, they are the new LPPs. I know you had issues. I've installed these on an LT1 in the past with zero fitment issues so I'm not worried. Time will tell. If I have to sell them for Kooks, so be it...but I think we'll be OK. Tests fits look good.

You got it. This isn't my first go around. I've been racing Jr. Dragsters since I was 8 years old and made plenty of low 11 sec passes down the track in my Dad's cars. This is just a tad bit more extreme :)
