Default [VIDEO] Katech LT1 427 Running Daytona Engine Dyno Durability Simulation

Working here I get bored with engine dyno sweep tests. There is nothing exciting about them. However, when we run track simulations on the engine dyno it's so much more thrilling. Hearing a 700hp, natually aspirated engine being simulated through the Daytona road course makes everybody come over and check it out.

I doubt any other engine builders put their packages through this kind of scrutiny before selling to the public. We have concluded our testing and will be announcing pricing soon.

Enjoy

Love it, what a Bad Azz N/A beast. Jason, I want a cam for my LT1. Something like the Torquer 110 I ran on my C6Z. What do you got...

Our LT1 cam is milder than the Torquer 110 in an LS7. It drives near stock and will even work in an automatic. It makes more power than a comparable cammed LS3. 600hp with the Stage 2 package.

Tks. Already have LG headers so would opt for the cam/headers package. Will let you know when I get serious about moving forward
