How did they get 325 hp out of the LT1? I wanna make a clone car and would like to know how to get the horsepower that the comp's do into my T/A. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks p.s. Any good stories about T/A's wasting Rustangs will be great to show my buddy who has a 94 5.0L

CLONE ! CLONE ! We don't need no stinkin' CLONE ! HAHA !!!I guess that imitation is the best form of admiration. Please don't try to sell it as a Comp T/A. It's all about a value and investment perspective. All of us paid a premium for the cars we own. I'm just interested in preserving the resale value. I'm sure the other comp T/A owners would agree, if not elaborate further.

quote:Originally posted by TTA 1387: No Comp TA came with 325HP stock. Only cars that had 325HP stock were the 94 Pilot Firehawk TA with headers.
nO COMPta was gm marked 325 stock. it was all gm polical reasons..
in 1996, gm went with dual cats and pcm reprograming. 1995 firehawks were dynoed with the exact same modifications as the compta's got from 95 to 97... 315 was the flywheel hp. gm cut off the marking on the hood in 95 again..political reasons......
the 94-94 lt1 was gm marked at 275hp... in 96 and 97, it was 285. the extra 10hp was not added to the 96-97 ta's for insurance and gm political reasons. Its the real world.. not the gm brochure world.
