Well, my Motor is done!!***
it is a 347 ESP ls1, LS6 esp cnc and hand ported/polished heads, ls6 intake, stock t-body, stock maf both PP, lunati pro m rods, all arp bolts, stock crank Nitrated, dimond pistion with gas ports and top coating 11-1 CR, ls6 oil pump, kooks 1 7/8" headers, 3" mandral exhaust with twisted flow mufflers, 3.73, steel drive shaft, stock water pump, stock belt size, 27" drag tires, 6 speed with spec 5i cluch. Brand new, just built.
We ran it for a little while, it sounded great!! changed the oil, and strapped it down to get a tune in it (car had no nose or lights or hood so we couldnt street tune it) but we spun it a little on the dyno to make it safe, then we did a pull to 5,700 just to see. the car made 434 hp and 392 tq at af 12.2.
Not a bad baseline, and i know with some more tunning, and miles 10-20 rwhp is deffenet, and an electric pump and lsx intake will be done this winter so that will help as well. all in all East Side Built me a great motor!!!!! I cant wait to get the TH-400 and my nozsle system finished up.
i will be racing this week i hope, so i will keep it posted

Good luck with your new motor and your quest for that 9sec slip. Once the TH400 goes in, the car should go 9's with ease!! Is you new motor and Scotty's new motor similar in specs?
I'm guessing low 12s...ha.Can't wait to see the final numbers and some times out of it. As soon as I get back from Houston (S.A.M. school) and then the beach I'm going to get my probs figured out and get some numbers hopefully.
Mike, thanks, i hope it gets here. and yes, they are similare, but my pistions are a little different, and im running ls6 heads with a little more cam. other then that i believe they are close. Brandon, good luck, cant wait to see that thing go for you.
but the challenge this summer is to see which one of them goes 9s first hehe
