Any suggestions on brands? I figured i could go with cams, intake and exhaust and a tune and stay around $3000.
Sean was my first thought as far as tuning and installation
Modifying an ls1.. need some input
So I have been throwing around the idea of buying an ls1 powered vehicle(ss camaro/trans-am/corvette maybe). Now I know just about nothing when it comes to these cars and products available for them.
I would like to be around the 400 hp range and spend less than $3000 (preferably all motor) in upgrades..so here is the big question..Whats the best route to go and who would i take it to.
Thanks for the info!

Well I had my eye on a 2000 z28 with an ss package but I believe the package is basically aesthetic. But it is a 6 spd. Now the ls1 is a single cam but isnt there two, one for each head correct?I do have suggestions, but are you buying an f body or a corvette, I own both, the budget brands are different for each.
No shit?!! lol I was way off damn ..ok cool..I cant wait to get back from basic and advanced training.. I am going on a shopping spree!Nope, Just one single "in-block" camshaft. One for each head would be "SOHC" or "single over head cam."
I dont think it'll be available by the time i get back but that's the one I had in mind. It's a pretty good deal. I get back from basic and advanced training early december and ill have at least $10,000 to play withare you buying that white one?
Well I'll be looking more intently when I get back, but I am a littel concerned with how a vehicle may have been treated you know? If one comes up I would consider it, but I would have a full pre purchase inspection done before I would buy it.to tell you the truth man you should just buy one that has 400+ already its faster(as in time) and sometimes a bargain, i almost took out a loan to buy a 29k mile 408 trans am w/450hp for 8k lol.
unless you want to make your own custom set up.
just my .02
I liked this one because it was all stock and single owner. Which usually means it has not been abused.

plus it gives me satisfaction from going from one point and setting a goal for my car and reaching that goal. I would not mind getting one that already had light upgrades.
Did I confuz teh panduh?:lol:hmmmmmm:idea:
