You will be satisfied for a little while and then the power bug will bite you in the arse again. I am planning to go turbo possibly in the next year or two if I don't get a C5/C6 first. I am where I wanted to be with my truck with the goals I set in place less than a year ago. But, I have the spray to hook back up to satisfy that need for more power but then that will get boring and then.........

yea, i definitely get that..... i guess id like to to think that i could save my $$ after these upgrades, but ur probably right lol

ls1s10onair · 09-28-2009, 10:27 AM

its all ordered, plus a couple minor add-ons..... $3,753.99................. better get some work done, so i can eat this week lol

ls1s10onair · 09-28-2009, 02:43 PM

edit.... apparently, the guy made an error.... it was $3,164

**Kampz69** · 09-28-2009, 02:46 PM

Petro · 09-28-2009, 02:50 PM

Amazing....

Show us the break down when you recieve everything. That seems like what just the intake and heads would cost.

ls1s10onair · 09-28-2009, 04:04 PM

yea, i dunno...... i guess times are tough lol....... well im crossing my fingers not to get a call back saying oops lol

haha yea, well i am going to find time to head up there at some point in time once my truck is ''reliable'' to drive more than a 40 min distance,

...

ls1s10onair · 10-07-2009, 03:40 PM

ok well, this bugs me a little...... that crazy deal i got.................................. yea, they didnt add the intake and tb in there..... so the # went up a little over a grand, but some parts are already here, and im waiting for the heads to be drop shipped

**Kampz69** · 10-07-2009, 04:28 PM

damn that sucks. did you end up going with a fast 92?

ls1s10onair · 10-07-2009, 06:31 PM

yea, kinda..... i held off on the intake and tb for now, due to the fact that i had rent for the shop, and god knows how many other bills this week alone, so i should be ordering them in a couple weeks.... doesnt matter right now, cuz i dont plan on doing the work til winter. But to answer ur question its a fast 92, and some billet 92mm tb (dont remember the name)

Are you going to have it ported?

And CONGRATS on TOTM!!

ls1s10onair · 10-08-2009, 02:13 AM

Thanks guys! Actually, I spoke to the manager at vengeance, and he said they would port it for free, so yea lol

Well good for them, Still sux on your part tho!

Boy, I was wondering how all that was so cheap!

ls1s10onair · 10-08-2009, 06:30 PM

Yea, well i was gonna do it one way or the other, so i might as well just do it all.... besides, itll give me a chance to improve some odds and ends that ive ignored along the way

Btw, zx9rgreen, i know you said you used an ls7 clutch with ur setup, what specific stuff did you need? flywheel, release bearing, etc? My clutch is still the original from the donor car, and i might as well do it while i have it apart

mr spree · 10-08-2009, 06:42 PM

From what ive read you need an LS2 flywheel with the LS7 clutch, not sure about the other stuff though.

Scoggin Dickey has put together a complete kit for the LS7 clutch swap that's priced competitively.

http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/sponso...formation.html

You will see a lot of people complain about the release point being right off the floor with this clutch. I had the same problem when I installed it with my original LS1 and HATED it. When I swapped the motors, I installed Spec's shim that is used on their clutches and now the clutch is just like stock. I would highly recommend installing a shim from my personal experience unless you have an adjustable master cylinder. There are lots of threads on the tech about the release point and these clutchs.

mr spree · 10-09-2009, 12:16 AM

^^I have read that also. All spec clutches come with a shim i beleive too...or atleast mine did

ls1s10onair · 10-09-2009, 08:25 AM

thats really not that bad at all..... just wondering whether the aluminum flywheel is worth doing

zx9rgreen · 10-09-2009, 08:36 PM

FYI the LS2 flywheel was quite a bit heavier then the ls1 I replaced it with. An engineer here at work just bought that kit with the Alu. because the steel was on back order. He said the only noticable thing was that it is trickier taking off from a stop.

yea, the heavier would be better probably anyway... i was never a big fan of aluminum ones

llorracs93s10 · 10-10-2009, 10:25 AM

So you going to be keeping those wheesl and tires or are you going to upgrade from them? And also, i'm thiking of going to a school in NJ and its only about a hr from you and meltingplastic, so i wouldnt have such a excuse not to come up to you guys like i do now with a 3hr drive haha.

well thanks man, its ok, i am just putting more power to it as i replace the shit, so its a win/lose situation for me, lol.

I am getting it dyno'd when i get the comp back next week.

I look at it this way, the problems ''crossed fingers'' have slowly but surely dwindled in severity so hope that s a good sign, you know?

An engineer here at work just bought that kit with the Alu. because the steel was on back order. He said the only noticable thing was that it is trickier taking off from a stop.
