Not Ranked
I'm not surprised at all about the Chev option for cobras for new builders. I'm sure you've all read the EPA thread and for those of us who live in Vic it gives us great cause for concern. As I said in that thread, a stock LS1 was competing with, I assume, warmed up Windsors that may have the EPA eyebrows raised. So I could go down the path of using an AU windsor (as my build started before 1/1/05 in Vic my ICV is exempt from current ADR's. Instead it must comply with 37/01) and mod it later and cross my fingers I won't get caught or put a Gen3 or even better a Gen4 (297kw stock) and not worry about the EPA about emmissions but instead just worry about the noise level. Boss 290kw is the other option but as has been previously discussed, it's a monster to fit. I know of 2 builders who have made them fit but the next problem is making them work with the standard ECU. I don't know it the smart shield problem has been fixed yet.
So that leaves Chev.
Anyone looked into Gen4 yet?
Cheers
