Have had no internet at home for a few months also which makes it hard.

Close... :roll: :razz: But its actually a Trev now... :? :rolleyes:

Seriously though it is a 2004 Holden VY SS series II. Its a 5.7L LS1 (same as Corvette) with a 6 speed tranny and close to 300rwkw (will be in excess off 500rwkw eventually). The closest thing you guys have I think is the Pontiac GTO, mine is 'basically' a 4 door version. They are also sold as Chevy Luminas in UAE.

LS1's rock. When it comes time to throw money at it let me know, and I'll point you in the right direction. LS1tech.com is good, but I have friends who have built motors that trashed their 'shootout' car.

Thanks fuzzy. I am still tossing up between a stroked 402 and FI (either TT or a Procharger), leaning more towards FI as I wish to retain some street manners and economy. Looking at something similar to this possibly;

Stock 346ci
Scat rods
Ross Pistons
Ported 241 LS1 heads, ARP studs
Stock LS6 Manifold and TB
1"7/8 4 into 1 and twin 3"
230 custom cam
F1 Procharger + front mount intercooler.
Custom 3 bar tune
Tremec 6 speed
3.91 diff

Which is capable of Image Maybe as much as 760rwhp on a US dynojet.

Had being the keyword... :wink: The Chev badge and grill combo look 168487324732674372974328795845676% better than standard badging so they were one of the first things I ripped off...
