Default Bracket Race LS1 and a glide

I got to get my bracket car on the Dyno. I really expected it to make 400HP since it is going through a 5k stall and a 9" but I was really happy to see 450 to the tire. It is a forged LS1 with cheap ported 243's and 1 7/8 headers and a Fast 102 setup. The cam is spec'd for nitrous for the occasional index race so NA may e lacking a little but I am super happy with the results. I will report back when I get some track times.

Great job! Planning on doing some bracket racing soon myself. What's your dial in?

Thanks. I'm not sure what my dial will be with this motor. I'm hoping for mid 6's at bracket races and 5.80's with the juisce if I find the time to get to some index races. Even if I can't get there, I will index it in the 7.0 indexes. The simplicity is so I can make lap, after lap, after lap, after lap....sa long as keep winning anyway.

That's the ticket with bracket racing. Keep it simple.
