Description:

With over 300000 miles on the clock it was time for an upgrade. Note: 3.5 liter engine still ran fine when I pulled it out!
Now with the LS1 I get 13.8 sec @ 105mph quarter mile with stock intake and street tires.

Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:

LS1 with stage 2 port and polish heads with a Lunati cam. 08 GTO modified oil pan. Vacuum booster replaced by a hydrolic one. Relocated ABS pump. BMW MC clutch to GM slave. LS1 tuned.
LS3 serpentine kit.

Suspension Modifications:

1 inch lowered with beilstien shocks up front, SPAX coil overs in the rear. Complete front suspension overhaul.

Wheels/Tires Modifications:

Upgraded 15 inch to 18 inch wheels and tires.

Interior/Exterior Modifications:

Just one....a 557i trunk badge where 535i was. Other than that its a sleeper!

Roller rockers, LS6 intake, LS6 dyno tune.
