Alot of people are running ZR1 style 17 X 11" wheels in the back on their cars. I think the widest stock is 295 or 305.

I'm going to put Quailty internals w/4 bolt main in the motor when i convert it to Blower and different Heads,oil pan etc. And Does any one know the Fatest Meats (tires) that you can fit under the car and the widest ofset rims with out rubbing ,hitting stuff? Thanks............

dude, come on, "twin blowers"

jesus, i doubt you can build a lt1 that pushes 12# self contained.

12lbs is alot more boost then you'd think, and it looks like you need ALOT more research before you start.

as far as cams, if you really do go forced induction, get a custom grind and a custom burned computer (or tuner software PROFESSIONALLY tuned).

all i have to say is, do your homework, and start at 1, then 2, then 3... sounds like your at 34, 55, and 73 to me.

you need suspension, brakes, and drivetrain mods to go along with your motor mod's!

LOL, gettin a little excited? You should probably get the car first, then ask all of these questions one by one as you start to tackle your little project you have planned. Also, I hope you have a deep wallet.

twin chargers?

lemme think here for a second, why would you put 2 blowers on an engine when they make a blower big enough to kill any lt1. and for the price of fabbing a twin charger setup, you could have the biggest blower around.

and if you do, please send me a picture of how you fit not one, but two blowers in an 4th gen fbody of any type.


and lemme see a pic of your twin blown 5.0 also, im sure with all that fabbing you have a pic somewhere.
