Lost oil pressure in my 99' z with ls1. decided to go all out now. Heads, intake, t/b, pistons, crank, injectors, exhaust, rear end, clutch. need input on what might be best. thoughts of forged crank and pistons. ls6 heads and intake. injectors? clutch? hooker long tube headers? tune? internal motor suggestions? Please let me know, i want a radical car when finished how ever long it take!! and of course a new oil pump

 

Wow, how much money do you plan on pouring into this project?

 

well, i guess a lot. ha. i dont plan on selling the car unless in dier need and i am wanting a bad ls1 car. so i guess as mush as it takes.

 

What is your definition of radical? Something wicked for the street? As far as internals go- Callies crank and rods are always a good choice. I have Diamond pistons which are also good, I also have friends using JE and Wiseco pistons. Fill me in on what you want out of the car and I'll be able to help you more

 

i want to have a car that is daily drivable, yet powerfull as heck when i want it to be...that help any?

 

Here is a link to Summit Racing. They sell many performance parts for your car at good prices.

thanks for the link, but i have studied summit's catalog like they were goin out of buisness! ha...

 

If you're looking to go all out, and mentioned doing the internals anyway, bump up to a stroker motor. Check out www.thunderracing.com and www.texas-speed.com . They both have a lot of options you can check out. If you're going to spend the money, might as well add some cubes while you're at it. Summit is good for some stuff...but they don't get into the real aggressive cams, etc.

 

Also, if you decide to call Thunder, ask to talk to Shane. He'll point you in the right direction.

 

Here is a great read.
