All machine work and assembly on this 5.3 was done by a student for his family's Vette Cart.
It has 862 heads with 2.00 inch intake valves, CNC ported and hand blended valve job, stock crankshaft, LT rods, bored and honed 0.020 over, and more!

 

Love it! That is cool, It reminds me of my Factory Five Coupe before the nose went on and good for him, train those young guys up. What did it make?

 

First of all, it’s great to have SAMTECH in the house!! Thanks for showing up. We’ve had a student or two of yours come through, one of which is a moderator here. @KCS
Please tell us more about the build in question here. A Vette cart would be a hoot!

 

I was hoping someone would ask! Here is the final pull after some help tuning from the EFI class.

 

Glad to be here! Let me know what details you're interested in and I will share!

Great numbers for such a basic cam.

 

Agreed! Amazing numbers for that combination. That’s 52xish at the crank.
