Re: Psycho III: LT-5 Opel w/LT-5
Why does it sound different than an LT5 even though I know it is an LT5?

No mufflers, might be some effect of running two plenums?

The Opel had a stout 4 cylinder in it at one time. That video might be from then.

The LT-5 can clearly be seen in this build pic, complete with the Corvette emblems on the cam covers.....but Chevy gets no love in the final build......with Lotus only prominently displayed in this other vid..

Re: Psycho III: LT-5 Opel w/LT-5
Yes there is a LT5 for sure inside. I do support this racing team with tuning consulting and engine parts. Therefore I know.
Right now we design new cams and single trottles for this engine.

Re: Psycho III: LT-5 Opel w/LT-5
Is that a nose trigger or using stock reluctor wheel? Looks like it still runs in waste spark.
