That's pretty good power for a non-stroker...

Its a pity the comp is so high you cant opt for a FI plan in the future... still...

Should provide ample stick in a VN

to tell u the truth ive never actually driven it lol. im waiting for easternats big time. the most i have driven it was to the shop months ago (no license) and that was with 2.5" pissy exhaust, stock stall, stock auto, single spinner with stock gears. was a slug haha.

Hey just incase you ever wondered about the part number of the cam, no such thing as "47C" but there's quite a few cams in the wade 1147C range (which it will be one of). I think it's most likely the 1147C10 232/232 110 lsa

[[TOPGEAR]]

[richie351]

very nice.. need one big question
ur manifold how much and was it worth it ? thanks

[[TOPGEAR]]

manifold + throttle body and all the other fittings and little bits and pieces then a tune ended up costing around $3000.

was worth it. massive differance. its something that u need when u build an engine with these mods.

[walesy]

love the manifold wanted to do the same with my ls1, my mate has a manifold to suit (jelous) haha, but he wants it for his vy ss ute

[jetlag]

[[TOPGEAR]]

its a billet one it was like $980 through VPW Performance Mail Order

[[TOPGEAR]]
