Default Opinions on Sportsman Shortblocks

So I was curious of anyone inputs on this setup from Speed Inc. I want to run a nitrous setup and that price is killer. Anyone running this shortblock and with what top-end(heads,cam,power) and what numbers they are seeing. Also is anyone having issues with them or no. I'm just looking for input.

*Mods I put this here in case it gets technical*

Chris,

It's customary that sponsors do not "highjack" each other threads.

BTW: Are you a sponsor yet?

Dick move if you ask me, the thread was asking about Speed Inc.

Anyway, I couldn't be happier with my setup.

Go Speed Inc, you won't be dissapointed. To answer your other Q's I run TEA Stage II 5.3 heads with a ported ls6 intake.

Haven't dynoed it yet..finished the car right before the season ended so the motor hardly has any miles on it yet..but it pulls like a train and did VERY well at the track on 3 shakedown passes even with a blown clutch.

Give Tom a call, nobody better to deal with than him.

We'll give Chris a mulligan on this one.

I have a Speed Inc. shortblock and am very happy with the results.

I got a Speed Inc. Iron block setup, motor runs like a dream so far, has about 700 miles total on it, hasn't seen the high boost levels that I need it to yet though......I'm hoping for 600rwhp +
