Why don't you find out why the vette is lacking power?If it doesn't smoke maybe it just has a spark or fuel problem.Possible clogged injectors or bad coils.
Exactly...something is causing the vette to lose power and it could be a problem even when you swap motors. Why not get to the bottom of your problem first that way you don't spend all that time and effort swapping engines only to still have a problem. Also an iron block is 100lbs heavier and that's a big difference in a vette. My neighbor has a procharged LQ9 in his vette and it's heavy in the nose...Quote:

IMO I would only swap from an alum block to an iron block if I were going larger cubes, even to a 6.0 would be pushing it for me...maybe a 370 or 402/408.Quote:

Attachment 7891well the vette has 100 n2o shot already and the stock camaro loses by like only 1 car length when spraying. Just no codes or anything to really trouble shoot on the vette. Well going to problaby keep them as they are yea sounds like too much work and trouble. Going to put a 200 shot see how long the ls1 last. Maybe that will make it a little faster. Just the vette forums are ... well rather be here.
Just because there are no codes doesnt mean that you dont need new plugs and or wires. There are a lot of maintenance things like that, that get overlooked because the car still runs without problems.
What plugs are you running with the 100 shot. Who tuned it for the nitrous? What kind of nitrous kit is it?
Trav don't bother. You can lead a moron to water, but you can't drown them. Or something like that
^^ haha! i'm gonna have to use that one sometime
