LT1 Rebuild Help
LT1 Rebuild Help
Hey guys.My 94 Z is almost at 90K miles. i figure the motor is kind of at its last bit of life..I mean it still runs great and everything, but i am thinking of saving to get it rebuilt.
I got a buddy, whose best friend build up motors, so i was thinking of seeing if i could get him to build me up a 383 stroker, or i dunno if its possible to do a 396.
What do guys think? Someone told me if i rebuild it to rebuild it into an LT4. I want the car to still be streetable, but i want something with some serious horsepower.
Another thing, im 18 with a pretty good paying job for an 18 year old. So im not looking to invest like $8000 into it...but if you guys have some other opinions, please let me know..
THANKS ALOT

Well im looking for something that would be daily driveable, but still be a good competitor at the track. I do have emissions, however im working at getting my car registered at my house in Wisconsin so i dont have them..Basically im looking for something with decent amount of power that i could still work on..like supercharger or nitrous, without spending ENORMOUS amounts of money..thanks alot for your help.

The same setup would work very well for u and produce A LOT of power.

If your A4 is stock (converter aside), I'd definitely consider beefing it before slapping an FI beast on it. Just a thought. Also, if it were me, I'd take my chances and stick with the stock rear.. some have had them into the 11's or deeper without issue. Some break 'em with street tires in a parking lot. I'd just spend the $$ on that when it becomes necessary.
Well dude if you look at my specs below.....I'm just about ready to slap it together. I'm spending about 6g's all together and A friend and I are putting it together. The motor itself probably only costing me about 2400.00 Gotta remember its not only the motor thats gonna cost you.
You gotta get:
Bigger injectors ....................... 250.00
Head work to flow 383............. 600.00 min.
TB 52mm.................................. 350.00
Headers................................... 600.00
Cam......................................... 300.00
Programmed............................ 275.00
and a Hella misc parts.............................
a lot to think about...
