Default 1900hp 427 Lsx-Sleeper

I thought I post this up sharing latest improvement results, thanks to the guys at Steve Morris Engines for making it easier to break stuff up. New transmission is on the way.

I love this build, but there's nothing sleeper about it.

I mean I like my Treadstone but not for 2k worth of power. The guy was mentioning that he was around 1200 before so that makes more sense.

Look at the size of the turbine wheel in comparison to the compressor wheel.
The pressure differential is very good on this motor.

Get it in the truck and make a full power pass. Then we'll see where your truely at.

Not doubting the power at all, doubting the ability for it to survive a full power pass in a heavy truck.

Watch the harmonic balancer when he lets off the throttle. Is it a camera trick or does it actually look like the balancer almost stops momentarily around the 3:59 mark. You just know there is some crank twisting going on between full power and then shut throttle. It's also impressive to see the tubing swell as it pressurizes.

Good catch on the balancer. Doesn't look like a camera trick. Something may be wrong there.
