Well Im sitting here and Im kinda bored with a 383 in a car of mine. Me and a friend were talking about the LS engines the other day and the 8.1 came up and how we never heard of noone building them. So now I have decided to play some with one plans are as follows:
Switching to carb (not sure on size of carb yet)
2 inch carb spacer
custom cut cam over 600 lift
headers
I have done some research on these motors and they came in alot of stuff. Im thinking of getting one for the regal if I can get the car and the shipping issues worked out. I however have a old 79 malibu that this thing would be perfect for.
The specs on this motor is 550hp/690tq I figured with the changes Im doing its going to be more toward the 700 and 800 marks maybe, Thats if these numbers are correct.
Have any of yall played with these before?
