LSX 427 NA dyno pulls 
In Pat G We Trust!
Engine: LSX 427 with LME Brodix BR7's, FAST 102, NW 102, 60lb inj.
Trans: RPM Level 6 T56 Magnum with Monster LT1-SC clutch
Rear: S60 HD posi with 4.10's
I was expecting 550 rwhp so overall I'm pleased with the results and I'm looking forward to seeing what it can do on the juice which will be my next upgrade for this car, which will be on the back burner until I'm finished with the 99 Camaro/E85 build.

KOOKS 2" primaries and 3" true dual off road exhaust system.
Thanks!
It's 11.5:1 on 93 octane and I'm thinking if I ran a lighter clutch, did away with the steel driveshaft and got some more air and a better fuel to it then I could see maybe 600 rwhp. What it really needs right now are some better tires though. I'm still running around on BGF KDW2's and this thing could really benefit from some drag radials.

I have a MAMO MSD, Ported & Milled LS7 heads with 1 7/8 LTs and TDs and was at about 11.9:1 and on E85. I also have a CF driveshaft and I'm running the McLeod RXT. My old LS7 setup put down 560/494. Those mods should help out though.

Had a 5.0 Mustang pass me by yesterday and rev'd at me so I said F it and turned around. I caught up with him and when we hit some open real estate we got on them. Me being behind him of course I had to hit my brakes to avoid riding up on his slow *** noisy car..LOL
I was hoping he'd pull over so I could chat with him and perhaps call him out to the drag strip this Friday night, Well, that is if there even going to be open this Friday because I'm itching to go racing!
Yeah this place is kinda like a drug I just can't quit! Too many good people in here and thank you for the kind words.
Absolutely yes, I love drag racing!.

It took some time but I purchased everything before building the car. Basically it was work, save and spend over the course of seven years. I purchased the block from Summit and had LME do the machine work. Then I bought a balanced rotating assembly from Texas Speed which is a Callies dragonslayer crank, Compstar rods and Wiseco pistons. There's something to be said for doing the work yourself and some would think you've got to be off your rocker to spend all that money and take a chance of hurting something due to inexperience but I looked at it from a money standpoint and managed to save myself close to 8K and in doing so gained some experience along the way. That's not to say there wasn't any pitfalls along the journey either.
Everyone says it's a 10 second car and I'd love to see that timeslip but it's nice calling it my street car with all the creature comforts. Now the 99 Camaro build is all about drag racing. I have all the driveline and suspension components and I just need to make the time to put it all together and get it tuned.

Hyd. cam was spec'd by Martin Smallwood and is a 243/251 .661 int and .633 exh. 115+4 LSA
Does that mean I would make the same horsepower and torque if I had left my 10 bolt in?

Good cam choice for what you have. On the rear a dyno operator can chime in but I think the S60 might not be as effecient as the old 10 bolt but then of course does not matter if you break the 10 bolt with your power you need to beef up certain areas. On a Ford 9 inch versus a 12 bolt they say its a 20 hp difference due to where the pinion gear is located in relation to the ring gear on say a 600 hp car.
