Thirdgen representin' at the LSX shootout!!
Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know I had a great weekend with my 1991 Firebird at the LSX shootout in St Louis and ended up taking home the LSX True Street 10.0 trophy! It isn't just 4th gen guys there....
Went a best of 9.6 @ 145 mph on 93 octane as well.

Re: Thirdgen representin' at the LSX shootout!!
I wanted to go so badly, the track is only 30 minutes from me. I got tied up in this house my wife and I are moving into soon, we were painting the walls and such. What really sucks is it will never be at Gateway again because after this year the track is closing.

Re: Thirdgen representin' at the LSX shootout!!
Cam, snapped a quick pic for you this morning.
I'm planning to have bolt in kits (no denting/cutting inner fenders/hoods) available later this year. Hope you guys like the way it looks. I have not polished the 304SST intercooler piping yet though.
I was initially concerned about intake air temps (IATs) but it has been very good at like 140 degrees.
Thanks for all the positive remarks above!

Very clean! Man i would have laid money that you mounted the head unit on the passengers side but thats WAY different than i expected. Looks great though.
What accessory drive are you using?

Wish I had seen you there, It was an awesome event! Nice place to have it if you ask me, to bad Gateway is closing. Next year it will probably be at Indy.
Do you see the orange camaro run a 8.45 in Street Radial sunday? We had to leave sunday so i didnt get to see any final rounds.

Re: Thirdgen representin' at the LSX shootout!!
What do you have done too your 408ci and what blower are you running. I am currently trying to save up for my set up. Already have d1sc procharger from last set up. I want buy a used ls3 and upgrade the cam to rsd4 cam which is 228/232 115lsa with long tubes and a fast intake. Just about enough money to start doing it. hopefully i can make it out to the next lsx tour.

Re: Thirdgen representin' at the LSX shootout!!
Wish I would have known who you were. I was standing by Jeremy's car talking about yours lol.
Anyway took vids on my cell phone of both your guys runs.
Jeremy's 10 flat second run in the true street class.

Justin's second 9.9 run

Re: Thirdgen representin' at the LSX shootout!!
Cool vids, thanks for posting. 9.9 was pedaling it a bit! I launched it at 1900rpm on the two step... I need to get it to hook like Jeremy's in my quest for 8.99. That green thing is mean off the line.
I've been very pleased with the Procharger setup. It is a very simple, very effective setup. I just floor it and it makes linear, smooth power without smoking the tires 200 feet out.
As far as the setup:
The reason I selected the F1R is so when I designed the bracket on CAD it would fit up to a F1R/F1C headunit without denting/hacking/cutting. I know alot of you have very nice cars and denting/cutting just isn't acceptable. Honestly, I feel a D1SC/F1A would produce the same times and horsepower, I just left some room to grow into it... Anyhow, the USA made 6061 T6 aluminum is getting machined right now in case anyone wants one late this year.

As far as the setup:
- 6.0 GM block bored .030
- 230ish hydraulic roller cam
- AFR 225s out of the box
- 9 to 1 compression
- F1R procharger
- Stock, untouched LS6 intake and ported stock TB

Re: Thirdgen representin' at the LSX shootout!!
I saw Justins Procharger and it looks awsome and fits very well in the engine compartment. Seems to be alot less complicated than most turbo installs.

Congrats Justin on the 10 sec win.
