Default Thanks to the TEA STAFF!!!!!

just rolled in to memphis after going to Total Engine Airflow to get some dyno tuning on the 421 iron block in my 99 6-speed vette. The motor set up is as follows:
4.030 iron block
lunati 4/125 crank
6.125 billet rods
diamond custom pistons/rings
ARE ported oil pump
comp 242/242 610/610 at 113 cam
yella terra 1.7 shaft rockers
stock ls6 intake
stainless works headers and custon mid pipe section
ghl rear section exhaust
spec stage 3 clutch setup with alum flywheel
transmission specialist/rodney/crashed 94 3.90 rear gears
veraram induction with race filter
shaner ported BBk 80mm throttle body
and last but not least, TEA 6.0L stage 3 Judson Massengill signature series heads with 2.08/1.6 valves<custom>

We dyno'ed today at 501rwhp and over 480rwtq. car pulled like a mac to 7000rpms. I cant say enough to the customer service, quality of products, and assistance provided by any of the above mentioned vendors, and especially the help at TEA. Brian , Brent and the entire staff are a pleasure to work with and as for the results, we drove the car from memphis to bowling green and back, avg. over 30mpg, and has over 500 horses at thye wheels. funny thing is that there are others running this like cam etc with big cubes that aren't making the power, the big difference is in the HEADS!!! all i can say is they get my vote for service, price, and performance. also want to thank tom garland aka nevernuf for helping in initial computer setup and lots of help along the way. Thanks to all and look for a nassau blue vette from memphis coming soon to a track near you!

That was a good trip Joe, even though my trans crapped out halfway there, but that's alright, good reason to upgrade. I want to thank you and your wife again for the trailer to get me home. Anyway, enough hyjacking your thread. I know your stoked and probably won't get any sleep tonight thinking of the track tomorrow. Your Vettes a beast, and I was really impressed with Total Engine Airflow. It's great to finally find a dyno tuner experienced with a Tech-2 and LS1-Edit and can optimize you engines performance. And did I mention the computerized CNC head cutting machine? That machine must of cost as much as my house, it was sweet!
Anyway, to Brian and Brent and the gang at TEA, I'll fix my trans and be back in a couple of weeks, it was great to meet you! :cheers:
