Go figure the freaking Forum would go dn this evening, I was going when I got home and could not get on. All I have to a say is WOW You guys are the bomb but I already knew that Can't wait to feel it Hell and that is with the 4.10's you guys picked up 111hp with the G5x-3 cam/AFR heads. Not bad I'm sure your phones will be ringing like mad! Thought you were busy before, just wait and see what happens when more read this. Glad I was 1st in line. See you in the AM, I should be there around 9:30-10am

Some great #'s there! WTG!

Having just had my car done at ECS for a blower cam and my car now screams real nice, gotta hand it to the guys.

I am most impressed with how they listen to people like me asking twice a day "how is the car coming long?"

I'd love to see a dyno sheet on that setup when you have time to post it.

Again, grats!

Yeah, that is incredible. Just 15 months ago it seemed hard to do a reasonably priced H/C setup to break 400, now breaking 450.

I fly cut my pistons this week and it only took me 1hr to do. I'm also going with the G5X3 cam but with 11:1CR so my heads are milled 30. My valves don't hit but get with in 25 thousands so I fly cut them 75 to make sure I will have no problems.
