Update on my future build! (Cause my originial thread is gone!)
Well, I've been emailing Lloyd at Elliottsportworks the last couple days, and basically this is what I've learned/decided/etc./etc.
I'm getting the LE1 heads/cam package with a custom ground cam (specs will remain a secret until it's actually in the car, since it may change based on things that happen in the future.), and upgrade to the Manley 2.00/1.56 springs. Then I'll be having the intake/TB ported and polished.
The whole conversation basically went like this:
I told him I wanted 350 rwhp, and between 360-380 rwtq, using stock stall and gears.
He said I could make 360 rwhp, but wasn't sure about the torque numbers being that high, because of the short runners in the intake. He said it'd be possible with 1 3/4 inch lt's, true duals, and an electric water pump.
I told him I've got 1 3/4 inch to 1 7/8 inch stepped primary lt's, and that I plan to run true duals.
He said that with this exhaust, and a slightly bigger than the smallest cam he offers cam, I'd very easily make 360 rwtq AND rwhp!
I asked him what sort of dyno graph/rpm range I'd have.
He says I'll be making at or above 340 rwtq from 2800-5500 rpms, and that I won't need to spin it more than 6100 (redline, as in I'll be shifting before that) rpms!
So basically, I'm getting more than I originally hoped for, with my stock stall/gears, at the amazing price of $1500!!! (I know this won't be the total cost. I need the dyno tune, fuel system upgrades, and any labor that I end up not doing by myself)
Holy crap I can't wait for this summer to get here so I can get this going! haha.

ur thread probably isnt gone. Im assuming ur user options are set to only show recent threads. I tell u what, its easier for me to just change it for u than to tell u where to change it for urself, lemme know if u find it. If not then we can always unlock this guy
