Painted LQ9...look at the pic of the block, it doesn't have the provisions for 6 bolt heads.

yes painted truck block and a stock 411 pcm tuned with hp tuners.

I will never have a 6 bolt setup in this car. I will build a 2nd car if I have a desire to have a 6 bolt.

I peeled the plasti dip about a month ago, it wasnt for me or the car...cool experiment thats all. Hopefully getting the car painted this winter.

Changing the oil and going over some things on the car today and getting ready for tomorrow. Weather has been nice up here with good air quality, if I get it to stick on a soft launch here at my home track it should be a good run.

oh, i see. I like the red better anyway.

good luck at the track today.

You can't estimate power gains from boost levels. You have to use fuel flow. Boost with a small cam will be significantly higher vs a larger cam.

Like on a blower car, swap cams, boost decreases. You don't add a smaller pulley to bring boost back up, then claim the power numbers from just the cam.
