Dyno is a mustang dyno that shows 280Hp for a stock V. Mine was 490hp/520tq

Wow, awesome numbers. Those are the second highest I've seen (onebadcad) but I don't know if his was a DJ or a Mustang. Just out of curiosity, what prompted the LS3 swap and not a build of your LS6?

Yes, I bought the 3M Scotchgard kit from this guy http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Advantag...__W0QQ_armrsZ1 . He is the best guy I've ever dealt with on Fleebay and the quality it top notch.

I grenaded my ls6 with a broken valve spring that basically chain reationed the rest of the motor! Then I got a great deal on a ls3 block....

Leave it to the "notorious" m.n.g to come in and jack a perfectly good thread about welcoming a new member and his awesome V. Not every thread has to turn into a dick measuring competition Mike, we all know you have a fast as hell ride but I have yet to see any dyno numbers from you so that's where my statement resides.

lol, well what I really need to do is get this thing on a DJ, then I will really add some fuel to the fire!

But honestly I have this car under boosted, undertuned and undercamed. Even with my NT01s on I cant get the thing to hook at all under WOT in first, and second has intermittent traction as well. I already have wider rears and I dont really like the fender flair look, so more power will only give me better acceleration in top gears, which is already faster than the room I ever have even on the track!

black chrome CCW's on badcad's car set it apart. That, and the car is superclean in person. It's the shinest caddy I have scene(I see alot).

Car sounds good. Kinda angry.
