Should be killer! Lots of meat before the first ring. Did AES pin the factory main caps or did you go with steel aftermarket main caps?

dreamls1

iTrader: (25)

Yes lots of meat.. We did a min bore and very thick pistons. No we didn't pin the mains. Only time you really have walk is with dentonation.

Sluggish

What compression?

iTrader: (25)

8.0-14.0 think will keep that on the DL

In for the local guys!! WOOHOOO!!

I don't agree with this. There is a reason Shawn @ Va. speed suggests pinning the mains above 800rwhp.

Looks like its going to be a freaking bullet, and a hell of a car, but a Powerglide in True Street? Hopefully it works out for you, just watch out for that black WS6, I've heard that things pretty slow, err...fast

dreamls1

iTrader: (25)

Yep, if I am not mistaken ECS had a glide when the won the lsx shootout

I plan on running my car at the LSX shootout. Not sure what class I am going to run in yet though...hopefully I'll be in the 9's by then.

glad you're an expert in this

my first turbo motor made 1200 rwhp, no detonation and severely walked the mains

ewww....warhawk heads

Fireball

iTrader: (21)

also, why not get an SFI case for the glide vs running a shield?

dreamls1

iTrader: (25)

Just going off what my Builder told me... Hey thanks for the possitive words

Fireball

Sounds like a killer build!! Good luck!

It sounds like a good plan on paper.

Sounds like you're going to have a nice combo but I'm with Fireball on this one. Pinning the mains is relatively cheap insurance in comparison to having bad news bears down the line. But at the end of the day it's your money. Either way I wish you the best of luck and look forward to seeing the results.
