I believe it! I made 500rwhp on "as cast" Dart 225's, I'm sure the CNC'd Trickflows flow much better!

Great results guys!

I just want the guy to teach me to tune!

Jeez, i keep finding myself coming back to this thread just to admire the results. Not only is the Horse Powah the highest i have ever seen on a NA LS2, but the torque is kick ***. It hits 400rwtq at 3.5k rpms, and just keeps on going up until it hits 452rwtq and hangs around there.

I bet this car is night and day difference from when it was brought in.
Does this customer know how lucky he is, how crazy his results are?

That's exactly what I was thinking.

I wish I had known about that place when I lived in Hampton, VA.

How is the driveablitity of this setup? I imagine its pretty damn lopey? How is the idle?

The same thread on CF got 5 replies. I guess a 520/452 LS2 is common place?
Its not even common place for a Vette much less a GTO.

Thanks for all the kind words guys.

Johny, the judge said something about staying 500 feet from me. LOL J/K.

The Goat lopes pretty good, but it's not real radical sounding. The driveability is very very good. Especially for the cam. You can actually lug it while slipping the clutch from a stand still, and bog the motor to about 500 rpm and it recovers nicely and pulls right through it. Pretty "stock" like. You can make it surge some around 12-1300 at low load, low speed, but you pretty much have to make it do it, and then it's not even bad.

We're tryin hard. Phil just won real street last night at MIR with his new motor Shawn built him. Brian (fireball) is knockin down 180+ mph with a single turbo, small cube motor and 4 bolt heads @ like 3500 pounds or something.

We're tryin to raise the bar with the street stuff too.

Yes the pistons are flycut.

If you'd like a cam, we'd be more than happy to sell you one.

Doesn't look like we got ya by much. That's a strong combo too. I'd love to be using ETPs, but as of late, they seem to be made of unobtainium.
