what would be best gas milage wise--read
to pull LT1... get a blower cam, port heads to match, or get a z06 motor, put a s/c on it and drop it in--stock z06 gets ok gas milage, just wondering if that heads is gonna guzzle gas in lt1 --we are talking about a 6 speed car with 4.10 gear
|
the price difference between these 2 options is insane
i say Get the LT1 and throw a blower on it, but the cam will more then likley kill the gas milage |
Why are you so concerned with gas mileage. Your gonna have a blown motor that is a daily driver??
|
A blown motor with 4.10's? Gas Mileage? Why not just go get a cheap rice burner for daily use, It would be cheaper.

ive seen afew turbo camaros getting 15 or so city and 24 or 25 highway...how is s/c any diff?

i super charger gives you boost all the time a turbo gives it to you at over a certain rpm. this is general info i know thier is more to it but i just wanted to give you a quick answere

The turbo makes use of heat energy in the exhaust system that would otherwise go right out the tailpipe. It harnesses that energy via the turbine and uses it to drive a blower. A belt driven blower just takes energy off the flywheel and lets all that heat energy out the tailpipe unharnessed. Superchargers are just for making big power easily, not for efficiency. Of course specific examples of efficiency could go either way in practice. Turbos are especially effective on diesels, not just raising the peak output but actually raising the efficiency over their NA counterparts. -brent |
