My car is getting up on miles for being run hard(128k) and I want to start planning for what Im gonna do. So let me hear some opinions on my potential plans for the summer rebuild.

355ci
LE1 heads(or something similar)
LT4 cam and valvetrain
new rotating assy.(forged???)
headers
intake
Slp clutch
short shifter
and some suspension mods (1le bars, springs, struts and LS1 brakes)

would I need to get bigger fuel injectors?


let me know what you think and if you strongly recomend a specific brand or type of part post up. what numbers could i expect?

 

unless you plan on lightning your pocket up a bit, id say just do the LT4 conversion, and maybe a TB but if you have the $$ then go all out, gears intake,all the stuff you said, maybe even some juice (n2o) LT1's love it!...haha good luck!

 

If you are gonna go with LE heads you might as well get a custom cam from him too. Bret makes awesome cams and it'll make more power and probably drive as good as a hot cam too. Bret made my cam and its incredibly streetable.

 

I wouldn't even worry about a TB, a bigger TB isn't gonna show any gains unless you have a lot of work already done to the car, yeah people go with bigger but you don't need to, For the price of a bigger TB you can get a set of headers which will give you HP gains..

 

yea, i was thinking about forged internals in case i wanted to spray down the line.

i cant say that im not on a budget but i dont want to cheap out on any aspects of the motor. thanks for the input
