Well i finally got around to updated my cardomain, i'd like to get alot more detailed in my buildup but right now i'm pressed for time, i am in a rush to finish this thing up for some races this summer, so i will take the fall/winter time to write-up everything in detail, enjoy..

Well, ur setup sounds pretty good for a start wyclefirocz, that will definatley get the ball rollin', should be a pretty quick bullet for the street.. All questions are welcome..

IROC5.7TPI, The path has not been set for my car yet.. I went the carb route because i'm not really a fan of Tuned Port Injection, however i am a fan of injection and i'm plotting a course for the future of the car. To let you in on it, the 383 build up w/ carb was just a starting point for my car, the cars fully built, engine, tranny, suspension, roll bar etc. NOW i wanna get a nice aftermarket fuel injection system going, and soon after that i'd like to do something turbo related on the car as well as a 6 speed.. All i need is alittle more time, but for now 700hp on juice will carry me through

Sounds good but a turbo and a 6 speed don't work as well together as an auto does with a turbo... May wanna give it some thought and check around with the turbo guys before spending the $ on the 6 spd conversion.

from what i understand turbo's and auto's work well.
turbos make big power, but they have lag. so get a converter. solves the problem of lag. so its a win win situation

orangeiroc check ur pm's

Ya think my custom built 8 inch 5000 stall that i'm running with my 383 will be enough ? LOL!!

The turbo thing is still in the planning stages and wont be done for a few more years still, the thing is i have a 700HP stroker on juice right now, i need to have more power and with all the turbo hype i'm reading lately i'm itching to outdo everyone.. For a street car i prefer a 6spd, all depends on what route i go with my IROC, right now its primarily a street strip setup on steroids (high stall, th400, tranny brake) and works extremely well i might add..
