Default LMR/LME LSX 454 - Final Tuning Numbers Inside

Final Numbers are in:

Last night the new LSX 454 put down 624 RWHP and 578 RWTQ during the final tuning session. These are SAE corrected numbers.

The increase in power was due to more tuning, removing the MAF, building a custom piping system and adding an electric water pump.

A big shout out to Steven & Josh at Late Model Racecraft (LMR) and also Bryan at Late Model Engines (LME) for the killer shortblock.

I pick the TransAm up tonight.

I should also mention this was on 93 grade pump gas with all factory accessories hooked up, including A/C.
