I have no clue what i will end up with horsepower with this set up but its a good start for now. I am planning on picking up a new t-56 magnum tranny from tremec pretty soon, i already have a buyer for my current T-56 so i figure i will upgrade a little bit
well i hope to have the motor back to together this weekend, but i cannot get an appointment at place to get it tuned for about 2 or 3 weeks. I will be posting pics once parts arrive and the work begins, i already have the heads off so hopefully it won't be too bad putting it back together

What kind of break in should i do with this H/C/I set up? Also will this run much at all before a tune? Should I just plan on trailering it to the tune/Dyno? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I had to make a new dyno/tune appointment because i was waiting on parts... but i am shooting for Saturday August 18th, hopefully my car does't blow on the dyno and she puts down good numbers

I see you probably already have the engine running, but one thing I would added to your list is trunion upgrades on the rockers. Otherwise everything looks to be good for a killer setup.
Don't try to start it on the stock tune. You will hydro-lock it with the larger injectors. A few warm up pulls with a low load and part throttle on the dyno to make sure everything is in check and not leaking should do it. Let it cool down a few times to heat cycle the valve springs and an oil change and let her eat.
So i shouldn't even try to start it to drive it on a trailer? (I have not started it yet) Oh crap this might suck to get it to the dyno, and with the rockers i kinda thought i should upgrade but everyone was telling me how awesome the stock LS1 rockers are.. well i guess i can do that later if i decide to
Is this a common occurence? I just did a cam swap and also added a set of 42lb injectors, I figured it would run like crap but at least be able to run and drive to the tuner?
