VRE-Project Supercharged '94 Trans Am

This project consisted of transforming this 1994 Trans Am daily driver into a winner at the strip. It came to us with blown engine from the Powerdyne it previously had. We built a fully forged 355ci engine to accomidate the 20# of boost, from the new Vortech supercharger the customer(cjmatt) would like to run. The short block consisted of a Callies Dragonslayer crankshaft, Compstar connecting rods, and Diamond Pistons. We finished it off with a LT1 mainfold, unported LT1 cylinder heads, ATI damper and CSI electric water pump.

We dynoed this past Saturday and were very pleased with the results 518/467 at only 10psi. Plans are to upgrade the fuel pump from a single 255lph to the dual in-tank setup, and then put on the smaller pulley.

I like the burgundy paint on the bird. You don't see that color very often anymore on the LT1

Motor looks and runs great, obviously based on the dyno sheet !!! Congratz !

How much would that motor cost installed? I have a 94 Z28 with a LT4 hot cam package and some other goodies. Would there be anything I would need to change in my motor for that to fit it?

That engine was roughly $5000.00 which included Callies Dragonslayer 3.480" stroke crankshaft, Compstar 6.000" connecting rods, Custom Diamond Pistons, Total Seal AP Series rings, Callies Splayed Main Caps, and ARP Main Studs. Installation is $1000.00, and dyno/tuning is $500.00.
