Spray that b1tch with methanol...and drop to a 3.5" with the headers...POWAH! That should be mid 13's if you can drive it right.

Spray that b1tch with methanol...and drop to a 3.5" with the headers...POWAH! That should be mid 13's if you can drive it right.
how low could i drop with what i got now?
stock
what would i need other than my headers to go lower?
The normal stuff.
Full Size IC on a top swap would net around the 3.4" area...then I'd get bigger injectors and hit it with just a 50/50 mix of meth and run a 3.25...MAYBE...but in the long run a cam will make or break the pulley drop. Even a small VS would let you probably run a 3.25" after the IC/Headers...or Meth/Headers...but you won't know until you get it scanned and tuned.
xp on topswap = 3.4 with 18* timing.
was a beast...
C'mon Cody....cam it. LOL
i'll have to agree with everyone on this one...i wish i would've cammed mine when i was doing it...alot of people ask me why i didnt do that considering how much i had into it!!...so go ahead and spend a few extra and cam the b*tch!! lol
Not to thread jack this or anything, but for topswapping, is it ok to use parts from a 1997? I know they had the ****ty vacuum controlled trans and what not, but would the l67 parts be ok to use?
yes, 97 parts are fine.
I dont have the money to cam it now. I have to go to school soon
Someone was selling a VS cam on here for like $200...it is still a cam...and you can use the stock valvetrain too.
Hey would it be better if i put my headers on now or after or during the swap?
during the top swap. putting them on now is a waste of time.
yeah wait until you swap it to put the headers on...you have alot more room to work on it!!! also if anyone is wantin to do a cam when you do the swap that is the best time for it!!
Traeger2591: i did a swap on mine and used parts from a 97 buick riviera and they work great...you might wanna get the heads sent away to be magnafluxed just for safety assurances...lol i had 2 cracks in mine!!
Ok questions.... Best cam to get with out having to change the heads?
DD, DD/Top end or Top end?
VS, S1X, XP.
I like the train of thought that says "go with the XP since it pulls where you actually have traction."
