Default Hpe truck with a ls7
We just finished up a 2007 Chevy Truck with a LS7 engine. The LS7 engine has a small cam, we also cleaned up the heads a little. There is also a hidden dry shot.

Saw that truck when I was over getting my tune at HPE last week and it's one bad ****. Great work to Gary and the guys it's awesome sounding in person. You should also see the first driveshaft it had before the boys snapped it the first time they tried to spray it on the dyno - OUCH.

BTW - Gary can you send me a copy of my dyno sheet as the one Owen gave me doesn't have the TQ curve.

I just pm'ed you Dave, I will get that to you today.

Yeah, this setup would have been a lot nicer is a regular cab truck.
It made 498RWHP on all motor. I will try to get a better video up later today.

Default Driveshaft
I am lucky that driveshaft stayed underneath the truck, but that was one hell of a ride. It stayed underneath the truck and didnt damage anything.
