I trapped close to 132 with my old setup.
I agree on trap speed as a good indicator of power when making engine changes.

At altitude? I like to go down to your thick air.

This weekend I'll be in Ely at 7K' and the SSCC runs from about 6K to 5K'. After we head to LV for the banquet and thick air.

Thin air is when your feet are on the "ground" and you are over 20K' with airplanes flying 1 1/2 to 2 miles below you

What would happen if this car ran 2" headers instead?

Thanks.

Hey Jason

Will your valve covers and coil relocation fit with the MSD?

Swaintech White Lightning. I prefer this coating over competitors because its a true ceramic, all others are just sort of paint'ish ceramics. WL goes on about as thick as a finger nail, and it's as tough as nails.

It doesn't looks glamorous, but WL is my cup of tea because it flat out works, form follows function.

You'll be very satisfied with your coatings.

Esthetically, its not the prettiest looking stuff...but its been proven to be extremely effective.

Yes, it is noticeable. Just drove it to our shop yesterday. 460 miles. 19.9 to 20.1 mpg on e85 . 715 hp. Water temp 180F

Got into the throttle today and 3.9lbs/hp is pretty much indescribable.

Routed from the clean side of the dry sump to the bottom of the filter rather than at the TB.

Over 600rwhp NA is very rare on this dyno for the LS7. I believe Halltech may have already held the record previously.


I have my engine out and ready to do mine what piston did u use. 4.135 is what its honed at corrrct and what rods.....

I designed it back in 2008, but the mold is in storage somewhere. Way too much money to make them, which means to even sell them, we can only increase the price by 10% or they do not sell. Obviously 10% is not going to cut it.

If you find the mold and remember a price, let me know if there is a chance I can have one made. That's a trick looking part.
