Default *** Thanks East Side Performance & GM High Tech***

As some of you have read in this months GM High Tech Magazine pg 20, we tested the new Edelbrock Ls1 heads and Edelbrock Race headers, with Scott Parker from GMHT covering the whole install and testing procedure.

I just wanted to say thanks to Ken (OSR 1) for using my car for the test and Ken and Alfred(KissMySS01) and Sean(SprSpt) for all of the install work they did on my car. They did a amazing job under a tight schedule This set up is just amazing and like my earlier ESP set up has never skipped a beat as this is my daily driver.

I also want to thank Ralph and Debbie from Kehl Tech where we did the flow bench testing for the Edelbrock heads who opened up in a blizzard so we could stay on schedule.

Also thanks to Steve Johnson@ Edelbrock for hooking us up with the parts
and Scott Parker from GMHT for hanging with us during every step of the install and testing.

hopefully someone will scan the article so those who dont get the mag can see the story

thanks again to everyone involved

Rob

Thumbs up

Nice, I worked with Scott Parker a lot as well when QTP used my car for the GMHTP magazine article on their long tube headers and cut out last year, he's a good guy and a good writer/photographer too.
