Who will work for parts.... Developing a rev kit for LS1 and other motors. Have every intention of marketing this product. Maybe you have seen my work around here at LS1Tech though I have been out for a little while. Anyway, looking for someone that can provide validated before and after dyno data in exchange for a free set to help me promote this. Only criteria is motor must be able to produce and sustain higher RPM. No Junkers. Must be legit. Prefer someone who is currently suffering HP drop due to valve train limitations. Not really looking to get into a huge debate about rev kits. I do good work and I think I might have a great product. Fit and finish is second to none. Best way if you might be interested is to just email me at jobshop@thelasershop.net. Hoping I can get interest from dyno shop owners who may be interested in sponsoring a candidate or customer of theirs. Will have a final design built very soon. Nor Cal area preferred just so I may be present but open to all interested.

I have a dyno shop in the bay area (suisun city), i have a c6 and I am experiencing some valvtrain issues at 6700 i have not spent anytime yet with the problem but will be looking at it soon.
send me a pm and explain what you have going on
edit.... after looking at the parts why dont you just meet with me and we will set something up. I could have the guys pull the heads the end of next week if your parts are ready

Several takers already via this forum and my email. Ill give it a few days to see a few more. Have a idea it might be interesting to do two sets. Have guys interested with very modified setups and others with nearly stock. There are some LS2 motors and I have to verify if there are geometry differences and do have immediate plans are for all LS series and possibly the new Hemi as well, but nothing until it is been proven with numbers. I appreciate the positive response so far. An email with the title “rev kit” comes through fine and doesn’t get trashed by my filter.

I would be interested. I'm always looking for a way to get more out of my combo. I don't have any issues with my current set up though. But I could tell you what it's worth at the track and the dyno. My last dyno was 452 rwhp and 408 rwtq with a 12 bolt rear with 4.30 gears and a Steel Denny's nitrous ready driveshaft. I make good power already , lets see if your rev kit will make more

A rev kit will not cost any horsepower loss because for every cam lobe ramping a spring up there is another ramping down. The materials the cam and lifter are made of are designed to more than withstand the added force and friction. Historically, rev kits have been designed as almost a mere afterthought. There is not a lot to them but in the past many have complained about the fit and the noise of some brands. There is always room for improvement and in this case for a performance concept as old as the small block itself.
