What kind of numbers am I looking at here?

I'm throwing a 6.0L LQ4 in my Camaro, and along the way I'll be scooping up a cam package from Texas Racing. I'm thinking about getting the 228R (228/228, .588"/.588" 112 LSA) with the COMP 918 springs and chromoly pushrods. I'm probably leaving the cast iron heads stock for the time being because, simply put, I just want to get the motor in the car and running. I might put some 317's on it later down the road just to save weight, or some 243's. But for now I probably won't touch them.

Now the real pooper is that I have to use an Fbody intake. I have a stock LS1 intake that will go on the block when it goes in the car, although I know they don't flow as good as an LS6 or FAST or other aftermarket intake...that's all I have the money for right now.

So with the cam only, on stock heads, and an LS1 intake manifold, going through long-tube headers...what kind of numbers do you think I will be looking at. It will be a T56 trans, so the drivetrain power loss won't be anything like using a 4L60E. The rear end has 3.42's, and the car is factory weight, a few pounds heavier since it's a convertible.

if its a ironhead motor you cant use the T56 or 4l60

I thought their was a spacer that fit on the crank to make it work?

not for longer crank motors. 80e or 400 is trans for it

thalt there was an adapter plate you could get for the t56

While you guys are correct that the T56 will not work with the iron head LQ4's, I have already planned that out. The motor is getting an LS2 crankshaft and flywheel, so the T56 will end up working.

ata boy get smart but y do that y not just stroke it if your goin thru the work a 408 z28 would be fun

That's a bit more money than I want to spend. Besides, I already have the LS2 crank in my garage. Its gonna be fast, plus I don't know how well a stroker would work with the potential supercharger I may go with later on. Stroking it would raise the compression from my understanding.

yes it will your right but your could prob fork out 10s on spray if not na

I don't really need a 10 second car. I'm not a speed freak, which you probably wouldn't assume considering the swap I'm doing. I just want a solid 11 second street car that runs and drives like a daily driver.
