To pursue the “rattle of power” VCC-BLU will go through six stages of modification. This path will be a little more costly in labor, but will provide us with the opportunity to take the necessary performance measurements at each stage. For instance, most owners would combine Stage IV and V to save a few hours of labor due to the fact the exhaust manifolds are removed when the cylinder heads are replaced.
VCC-BLU will follow the following plan:
Stage I: Traction
- Drag Radials
- Breathless Performance Products: 6 SP Custom Shifter
Stage II: Suspension
- Pfadt Coil Overs and Sway Bars
- Lower Car
Stage III: Induction & Ignition
- Callaway Honker Cold Air Induction (CAI)
- Callaway UHC-8 Ignition Wire Set
Stage IV: Cylinder Heads
- GMPP LS6 CNC Ported Cylinder Heads PN#88958665
Stage V: Exhaust
- Dynatech Long Tube Headers
- High Flow Catalytic Converters
- X-Pipe
Stage VI: Cam
- GMPP “Showroom Stock” camshaft, PN 88958606
