Default 2XXX hp LSX Build Pics

Here are a few pics of my LSX build up. I have only been to the track once so far and I can say this combo really moves some serious air. This is one mean combo! There are many more pics but they will be in GMHTP soon along with the complete LSX engine build up.

LSX Block
Diamond Pistons
Dyer Rods
Callies Crank
Futral Camshaft
Jesel Lifters

Are you running the CV stuff from ETP? Also are you using the meziere radiator with built in water pump? How many cubes and what size hairdryer?

So are those tiny head bolts at the 6 o'clock position really gonna help us FI guys hold heads down? Those look too small to do much.

Yes they are ETP Canted Valve Heads. The Meziere pump is remote mounted and the turbo is a 101mm. Only time will tell on the head sealing but so far so good!! It certainly will not hurt......

Ya, that was discovered during clearance checks.

If history repeats itself then Harlan usually gets his way so I would have to agree with his statement!
