So I will be starting a new project car. My current camaro is totaled, and I will be turning it into a full out drag car I think...Once I start getting money in for the accident, I will be starting to transform it...Ahh I love power

Just a suggestion from someone who has built alot of late models and messed with the LT1s. If the car is an automatic, the first thing I would do is buy a Yank or Vigilate torque converter. This is the best bang for the buck. A good converter will knock at least .5 of your ETs. It sounds like your gonna be on a budget? Gut the car, its a racecar and don't need power steering, AC, Heat, Backseat. Basically if it don't make it run, lose it. I would keep the door panels and carpet for cosmetic reasons. But remove everything under the carpet. Sound deadener. Right now there are 2 sets of AFR heads for the LT1 on ebay. These are one of the best heads available. If you could find a complete LT4 setup, their good for over 400 hp. But discontinued so hard to find. But good luck with whatever you decide to do with it.
