The biggest thing that "makes it good" is the HP factor. Compare it to an LT-1 Camaro, there's almost 60 HP difference for a slightly different intake and an arguable better iron head.

I don't know what you would consider "breaking the bank". You SHOULD get an aftermarket ECU, a GOOD 3-speed trans and you're going to have to fill up the 8.5 rear with GOOD parts or get a 12 bolt. The only place where I could see you "cheaping out" would be with the motor. I don't see the need for a bunch of trick parts to "comfortably run under" the index but you are going to need a competent shop that understands LT-1s.

Thank you. I noticed the 59 horsepower while going through the classification guides.

PM Corbitt Marshburn on this site . He has built the LT-1 powered wagon and could guide you down the right path.

Thanks.

I just PM'd him. He's been a member here since 2004, but he's never made a single post, so I wouldn't know if he even checks in here anymore.

I Googled his name, and found a pic of the black wagon. Is it a class car, or a bracket car?
