LME 402 with AFR 205's Its been a long wait but finally pulled some numbers out of the new combo today. The car is a whole new animal and I am very happy with the results. Would like to say thanks to LME and QM for building a beast!

Damn bro you beat me to the punch. My 402 isn't done yet so now I have to sit and drool over the numbers you made !! Awesome numbers, and they really give me something to look fwd to. I am very impressed the way that big cam kept you at 500 rwhp or above all the way from 5700-6800 !! Your engine has a larger cam so I don't think I'll be challanging you for the rwhp number, but I think I should get you on the torque side. Can't wait to meet up with you at LGM. The gearing in your car must make it feel totally insane. What's it like in 5th and 6th when you just hit the gas ?? Torque, gearing, horsepower = beast !! I will only be jealous until my car is done, then you can drool brother. CONGRATULATIONS !!!

Thanks Doug!! I have not played around in 5th yet but 6th gear pulls harder when passing at 70mph. 1st and 2nd gear are now nothing but tire burners!! 3rd gear at a 70 punch on the highway spins the tires a bit before it hooks and screams to redline!! The car feels completly different!! I no longer have to "wind it up" to get it moving. I now have a whole new respect for the car and have to be careful when I decide to punch it. Let me know when you are coming to town and we will meet up at LG!

Awesome results! I'm really liking the AFR 205's. Even though the 225's made a bit more power on the stroker, the 205's a nice because you can get throw them on a stock bottom end motor and they will still work awesome for a stroker (especially if it's gonna be a smaller stroker like a 383).
