Default Late Model Racecraft LSX 454!!!!

Here are a couple tisser vids of Brandon Johnson's LSX 454 Camaro. We decided to tune the drivability on the dyno for now so Brandon can put some miles on this motor and clutch before we try for our final dyno numbers. After tuning the drivability I couldnt help myself but to make one full pull just to see where we were at. How does 590rwhp and over 550ft lbs sound for a baseline number? Once Brandon breaks in the motor and clutch she will be going back on the dyno for our final numbers!

Thanks,

Man the drivability is surprising good, no low RPM surges or bucking... No clutch chatter... couldn't ask for a much smoother riding car with the mods it has.

The exhaust sys, is noting special, Kooks 1 7/8's with 3in y-pipe, to a Borla Cat-back....

Once we get a few thousand miles on the motor, I will bring her back to Josh @ LMR and install a Direct port (pilled from 200- ?)

Two questions:

1. How high are you spinning it (or planning to spin it)?
2. What clutch?
