THE BEASST Is A Gen. 5 Right Out Of Your Nightmares…
919rwhp on stock bottom end. Now, normally that is something that when someone calls that out, your immediate next thought is that they must be either lying or crazy. Well, thanks to technology, efficient boost, the right combination of parts, and the tuning capabilities of Matt Sorian @ FSP, the almighty power potential of the LSX shines through.
Now, when we say stock bottom end, that by no means is trying to relay an otherwise stock car. THE BEASST has a myriad of modifications performed over the last few years to optimize the performance and output of the car into what you see here. The 2010 SS’ mod sheet consists of the stock LS3 bottom end, with TSP CNC ported stock heads (stock compression), Manley Nextec valve springs, Manley pushrods, LS9 head gaskets, ARP headbolts, LS7 lifters, Rollmaster Dbl Roller timing chain, Night fury cam, Comp cams trunion upgrade, Kooks long tube headers/no cats, 3″ exhaust w/Spintech mufflers, LS6 ported oil pump by TSP, stock oil cooler removed, 160° thermostat, NGK BR7EF spark plugs, and a stand alone fuel system with high pressure pump. On the power adder side of things, we have an ECS/Paxton NOVI 1500 Supercharging System w/ 3.33 pulley, Cold Fusion Nitrous plate kit (35 shot), and an Alky Control Meth Injection single nozzle.
The BEASST made 882rwhp on boost/meth, and the 919rwhp was on boost/meth/35 shot nitrous. All pulls done with 93 Octane Chevron fuel with C16 in the standalone fuel cell for nitrous system.
Putting the power to the pavement can be difficult with this much power, but the BEASST manages it with the original stock M6 transmission, a Mantic twin disc clutch, Redline Trans fluid, and a Hurst Shifter. Out back the stock differential assembly houses 3.70 LPE gears, Posi mod, LPW Cover, Redline shockproof gear oil, and spins DSS 1,400 hp axles. The car also features full Pedders bushings, cradle inserts, and sway bars, plus H&R Springs.
with 65,000 miles on odometer, a best E.T. of 10.94 @ 130, and a best 60 ft. of 1.56, you know not only does the car get driven, but it gets driven hard…even to and from the track (except once when he broke an axle).
So, tell your kids that they don’t have to worry about monsters in the closet or under the bed…because the BEASST is rolling around the street of Houston, TX.
Special thanks to Matt Sorian of Florida Speed & Power for his stellar tuning work on this project!
East Coast Supercharging Goes 1-2 In The Mantic Clutch 8.90 Index GM EFI Race Series at Raceway Park…
Congratulations go to “The Captain” Jay McCardle for winning the 6/9/12 Team ECS Racing 8.90 Index, presented by Mantic Clutch. Jay pulled out a victory over runner-up (and ECS co-owner) Doug Ring. Jay also took the Mantic Clutch #1 Qualifier Award on the 8.90 dial. Both cars are running strong thanks to their ECS/Paxton NOVI Supercharged powerplants and stout setups and tuning by ECS themselves.
After the race Doug Ring said “That was one of the closest races I have been a part of in while, neither one of us knew who won at first but Jay pulled it out! My .008 R/T was surpassed by some mid track tire spin and it was an even drag race to the finish. (almost…)”
