Beautiful car! ive always liked the gtos. is that the 5.7 or the 6.0?Originally Posted by konichd
Building my GTO for a Drag/trackday car. Should be 600+ HP when its finished. Hotchkiss sway bars, BC coilovers, harrop rear end, DSS axles, Cquence rotors, Hawk Performance pads, Stainless lines, 1 pC driveshaft, Mcload clutch, 243 heads, MSD ignition. Really just have the motor left to build (Cam, headers, intake, TB)
It's the 5.7
Its a 5.7 but the 243 heads turn it into the 6.0

How does changing the heads increase displacement? A head change will change your combustion chamber size, usually measured in cc's, but not the displacement. Displacement is determined by bore x stroke x number of cylinders...

Yes, but now when I do that cam I can change the bore-stroke to the 6.0 or I can just say what the hell and do a 408

Hahaha. My Fiero has a 3.4L but since I ported and polished the heads it's a 4.3L. And with the turbo I'm definitely at 7 liters. I love this game. Oh, I have a K&N cold air intake. 7.2 bitches.
not exactly the same thing. On a LS1 243 heads gives you more options to building a LS motor (4" bore in my case). I've settle on a VXR cam but need to figure out lifters, rods, rockers and how much lift I need.

my roommate just got back from AUTO X nationals with 1st place in class for the second time in his career (different cars too) and 3rd overall. he was also TT3 NASA time trials national champion last year. he holds nasa lap records at many tracks in the region. i cant drive but ive been in the scene for many years. read rule books first, then spend money on having a reliable machine and getting track time, then slowly build and improve. you dont want to be one of those dudes who cant drive their car even close to its potential haha.
first autox champion ride (sub 2:00s at hpr)
