Guys, this was an extremely interesting article and proves that there's life in the L98 yet...
...but... (there's always a but!)
I'm struggling to understand how a BONE STOCK L98 with nothing more than a cam, long tube headers, electric water pump and FAST XFI can put out 331hp - that's almost 50% more than the stock output!
Also, getting 481hp at only 7psi doesn't seem to add up - getting that kind of figure out of a stock LSX engine would be pretty good!
Help! If this can be done, then I'm sold!
For info, I have an '88 GTA with an '86 Corvette L98 (aluminum heads), adjustable FPR (running at around 50psi), uprated ignition system (wires and coil), throttle body flow straightener and a set of ceramic coated Heddman shorty headers - soon to have an aftermarket chip fitted too...
