Finally got the car to a point where I could test-fire the engine. Still have a ways to go, tidy up looms etc before I can take for a drive and start tuning. However she fired on first turn of the key.
YSi pulley not hooked up yet - that will add some more noise... Turn the volume up - this one is with straight pipes! YSi Startup |

That think just looks mean! Is that a functional roll bar in there, too?

Hi Brian, It's a fully forged/built 383, front and rear internally balanced. LT1 bottom end, LT4 top end, extensively CNC'ed. The cam is 236/246 with a 115 LSA and 0.6" lift. 9:1 CR. On the engine dyno it made 430 crank horsepower and 400 ft-lbs tq. Stage 3+ SPEC clutch, superdamper with 8 Rib pulley. V7-YSi supercharger pulleyed for about 10-12 pounds (we'll see what happens!). 2-stage alcohol injection. Going to be fun! Andy |

That should make some SICK power! 630 or so seems reasonable.
Congrats on getting it running!!!  |

That is a nice setup. Who makes the 2-stage alcohol injection setup you are using. Thanks
