The size of the injectors and turbo dont mean that much considering the tune keeps it from pouring fuel down the motors throat when not at WOT

A force induced car tends to get better gas mileage (when not romping on it) because its more efficient and generally the car doesn’t have to work as hard to get going.

I thought my gas mileage was going to be horrible, because of the cams but they dident make to much of a differance

I’m seeing 4mpg more than I was last year even when romping on it because i dont have to keep my foot in it as long to get up to speed :rofl

You could have got an ls1 car for the same price you are selling this thing for. Hence why itll be hard to sell a v6 for 5000

Most people on car enthusiast sites would prefer an ls1 car to a v6 even if it did have a new engine.Your best bet is craigslist

For my car the cam I have is a mild cam, if I went any bigger it gives me an RPM range I cant really use right now and noisy heads due to the hydrolic lifters…

Its pretty big compared to stock, and I was very suprised my gas mileage dident suffer horribly from it haha

Seems like LS1 Camaro’s are in the $11k range, atleast in the Want Ad Digest and on Craigslist.
