I have been posting in the performance section and figured I should probably introduce myself. I'm Drew, live in Phoenix, AZ. I have a 93 Lumina Euro with a 3.1L as my daily. Bought it used with 120K on it 4 and a half years ago. Now it has 226K on it and still going strong. I rebuilt the tranny a couple months ago but have had no engine issues. Most reliable car I've ever owned. I also have a 650+ RWHP supercharged 97 Camaro Z28. That's the fun car. I built the Camaro from the ground up and know a ton about building a rwd V8. But I also want to mess around with the Lumina a bit and from what I've seen here a lot of you are very knowledgeable on the 60* V6.

Welcome. I know this is the wrong place but I want to hear about the mods on your LS1.

Actually, it's an LT1. It's a 97 Z28, last year for the LT1 before the Camaro got the LS1. This is basicly everything I did to it: Block is bored .030 over, GM PM rods, forged SRP pistons, 9.0:1 compression, all machine work done to block, crank, rods, Clevite 77 H series bearings, Trick Flow heads port-matched, ported intake, 58mm TB, Comp Cam 227/239 dur @ .050, .566/.577 lift, 114 lsa, and a Procharger P1SC pushing 16 psi. Racetronix kit with a Walbro 255 fuel pump and 50lbs injectors. Transmission has a Hughes 2500 stall, TransGo stage 3 full race shift kit, Gorilla sunshell, and a Hughes full race kit. Corvette C5 Y2K wheels with 255/45ZR17 BFG G-Force Sports up front and 295/35R18 BFG Drag Radials in the rear. SS hood and Wings West ground effects kit. I've done a lot of suspension work as well. Next, I am installing 3.73 gears and a 4" exhaust with a 4" Spintech muffler then I'll get it dyno tuned, either at NRP up in Vegas, or have Nic D. tune it here.

So I was one year off from when the LS1 started.

Impressive mod list. Would you benefit from a larger TB?

[DrewZ28]

There is only 1 throttle body available that is larger. It's a mono-blade and VERY expensive. However, the TB on my car is actually has 2 blades, so it's got dual 58mm blades. And my current TB will flow more CFM than my supercharger will produce at 16psi.
