LT1 Bolt-Ons
Replacing spark plugs and wires can be a painstaking process on typical late-model F-bodies. Fortunately, our LT1 rests comfortably within the confines of a luxurious '78 Chevy Malibu engine compartment, and its ample room makes the job easy. We ripped out the old factory wires and replaced them with a set of new JBA Headers power cables, which are '94 to '97 application-specific and feature heavy-duty silicone sleeves for added thermal protection and extra-thick plug boots to help repel external contaminants. The plug-wire change freed up an additional 5 hp and 4 lb-ft of torque on the dyno! Of course, wires aren't really a power adder, but it shows you the performance gains basic maintenance can make.
