like i mentioned. I have been following drifting locally....and mostly internationaly. But specifically the technicall bits of drift car builds. The yanks have methadology in there V8 displacments.
Instant power. no lag, and lots of torque.
Thats was the driving factor.

Very Jealous! So when Should this little monster be done?
Power is nothing without control,
Control is not fun without power.
Traction is over rated.

cheers thanks guys.
Well the ls1 should make around 250 on the wheels.
With my bigger injectors beefed up fuel rails, Exhaust out the front fenders. im pretty sure itll get up too 300
i have a set of T28 turbos which i will run on the car.
However. for the first 6 months, im keeping her normally aspirated to set up the car and make sure everything is cool.
PLUS im just tired of fabricating now.....i want to race!
Turbos can wait....
