The pic I have I think is Edelbrock 2650 with Katech supplemental ported bolted on. Like less $ version of the 2019 LT5 ported supplemental fuel in addition to DI, like the 2019 ZR1? I'm looking forward to getting pistons to prepare for FI later & better fueling, maybe LT4. Axels & driveshaft maybe, not sure if any weak links below 700-800 whp other than pistons rods & maybe valvetrain, valves & springs, need better brakes. I feel like a kid telling Santa my Xmas wish list. Not sure if ok to post weblink, but. https://gwatneyperformance.com/produ...n-rod-package/

I was originally looking for an El Camino since I've had at least 3 but were harder to find and I found the wagon in Kentucky that was already painted so I bought it. Then I took it from there.

OK I will watch video all the way, thanks for info. Very nice work, good job. Are the stock DI ports closed/plugged off? Thanks.

Maybe I misunderstood but I thought that DI gave a huge improvement in lowend torque and hp. Not that that's relevant in this scenario. There was a vid from some Katech engineer that I saw, I thought? Or maybe too many Corona's....

Some people tried to use stock injectors with no fuel coming through them and they ended up acting like a glow plug, so the billet plugs are a must. |

Mod for mod the LT cars consistently make less power than the LS cars, when you would expect exactly the opposite. My ZL1 made less power than my CTS-V, and the ZL1 has a more efficient supercharger. Oh and my ZL1 is a M6, it should have been over 100whp more than my CTS-V was. |

Thanks for confirming the plugs, makes sense.

I have an 82 Silverado, it was my grey-primered DD for long time, had it since college 25 yrs. I'm finally mostly done rebuilding it after 4 yrs. Need to do home improves, but planning upgrades for my Camaro later. The ported fuel intake with DI delete seems simpler & more custom, very nice.

After watching video, like idea of ported fuel intake, but that is a big change, but it makes sense for a custom build. Thanks for sharing.
I once drove a procharged Gen 5, maybe upper 500, someday I'd like make mine to be about 600whp. Alpha chassis in Gen 6 Camaro deserves more hp than 400 something. To be safe, I'd like GPI pistons kit and then FI, maybe procharger or PD. There is a good machine shop I've used, he's outside Fredericksburg, VA. I could put in the FI kit. I'll enjoy my stock 1SS with Soler PTB for a while still, but on punch it after 5 years you can feel the engine could do more.
