Another Whipple Build

This is my first post, but have been lurking and learning since I bought my 2018 SS 1LE early last year. Around the end of the summer, I decided to take my 1LE 4 hours south and drop it off at Vengeance Racing for some work. What originally started out as just a Whipple and a tune ended up turning into something a little (lot) more involved. The more I read, the more questions I asked to Ron or David at VR, and the more involved the build became. The end result is exactly what I was hoping it would be, power wise. Here is a list of mods done. I am still debating on seeing how much, if any, power I would leave on the table by adding the LPE HPFP and FIC 30% injectors and ditching the meth injection. We still have some minor driveability fine tuning to do with the tune when the weather gets better and I can get some logging done, but I am still on the fence if I want to try the bigger HPFP/Injectors or just leave it alone and enjoy it when the weather gets nicer.





The following setup resulted in a final power output of 846rwhp and 803rwtq on E85 fuel at 13psi of boost.

- Late Model Engines 377ci Forged Shortblock

- Vengeance Racing CNC Ported LT1 Cylinder Heads

- Vengeance Racing Stage 3 Camshaft Kit

- Whipple Superchargers 2.9L Supercharger System

- Vengeance Racing Cold Air Intake

- Nick Williams 103mm Throttle Body

- Kooks Headers and Exhaust Longtube Header System

- Stainless Works Axle-Back

- AlkyControl Dual Nozzle Methanol Injection System

- DSX Tuning Auxiliary Fuel System

- GM LT4 High Pressure Fuel Pump and Injectors

- RPS BC3 Triple Disc Clutch Kit

- Vengeance Racing Valve Covers and Coil Relocation

- Vengeance Racing Catch Can System

I don't have any plans to do any 1/4 mile racing at the moment. I would like to to do a 1/2 mile event at some point. KingLT1 is correct. Getting the power to the ground is going to be a whole different challenge. First step is to wait for the weather to warm up and get some logging done to fine tune the driveability a bit. It's still a work in progress.
