I am doing a swap into my firebird with an 87 GN engine. I am looking to run low 11's. Heres what I have so far.
I rebuilt the engine as well. New valve springs, pushrods, etc...
-Ported and Polished GN1 Heads
-Port matched intake
-65mm throttle body?
-MSD 50lb injectors
-Walbro 307 w/ Hot wire kit.
-TRW Forged Pistons
-208/208 Cam
-High volume oil pump and high flow front cover
-LT1 Starter
-Custom Headers, crossover and downpipe from Brian at APE
-A replica of the CAS V2 frount mount intercooler
-Either TE-60 or 61 Turbo
-Tial BOV (Not sure if needed but it couldn't hurt?)
-TCI Adaptar for Buick engine to chevy trans
-Pro-Built 700r4 Trans w/ transgo shift kit, polly mount and B&M Racing Trans cooler.
-2800 or 3000 Stall Converter
-Not sure on the rear end yet. Probably Moser 12 bolt with 3:42 gears.
-26x11.5x16 M/T ET Streets.
-Pollyurthane suspension, sfc's,torque arm, etc..
I have most of this stuff either on my car or waiting for better weather to be put on. Some stuff I do not have yet though.
Now what am I missing and will this take me into low 11's? How much boost should I run in race trim and street trim? And most importantly, is this setup streetable? This is my summer daily driver.
