Default V went on the dyno

I had Livernois Motor sports do some work on my 07. Stage 3 heads, cam, ported intake and TB, Kooks headers with hi flow cats and a Corsa exhaust. Car made 468 hp/408 tq on the dyno. Can't wait to pick it up and put some miles on it.

That's strong. They do good work there. Think of it this way, that combo in a vette would be 10-20whp higher. That's getting it done.

I saw that too....there a reason they set the limiter there? Their valvetrain parts are good...I'd twist it further. I was thinking 7k on a ls6 with the right valvetrain is no big deal. Ls2 will do at least 6800. My ls3 through an auto was shifting at 6800 wot.

I hope to pick the car up later this week. I had an LS7 clutch and lightweight flywheel put in as well as new axles. The idle is pretty choppy sounds real good.

I will get some clips as soon as I can. My F14's should be here early next week. This car is getting a serious face lift.

Well I had a bunch of work done besides the heads, cam, and intake. New clutch, aluminum flywheel, DSS axles, Revshift engine mounts , Kooks headers and hi flow cats with a Corsa exhaust so they were busy with it. Without looking at the invoice I would guess just the engine work and dyno tune to be around $5k or so.

No, the hp making part of that considering someone already has exhaust done would be 5k...it's on their website. Livernois is top notch. They get it for sure.
