Congratulations!!

Is it the motor in your sig? Did you do new bearings, touch up the crank etc.? Who put it together for you?

Why was it rebuilt? Did you run JPR heads with the B1 b4 the rebuild?

It is the motor that is at the bottom of the signature. A brand new LS6 block with the Lunati EA-382 rotating assembly.Everything is new. I had a guy up here who builds boat motors, stock car and drag racer motors put it together for me. The place is called RL Racing. The guy really knows his stuff and has every machine a machinist could dream of! The B1 and the JPR heads were on the old motor. I will be trying those heads on the new motor with a 232/232 .575/.575 114lsa cam and will decide whether I step up in flow or just keep those which are actually a one off stage 1 (or 1.5 as Joe called them) which are flowing 291 CFM @ .550 lift. If I don't like the dyno #s and track times, then I may have these heads reworked by Joe or even go to a different set like maybe LS6 heads.
