Default WOOOHOOO!!!! Just ordered my MTI satge 2 heads and C2 cam

Just got off the phone with MTI and placed my order for a set of Stage 2 LS6 heads and the C2 cam! They are on an 8 week back order on the heads though. Its going to be the longest 8 weeks of my life. But for the HP numbers they are talking I think I can wait. Cant wait to get them!

Got a call from MTI today. They talked to me about there new X1 cam. Its a split duration cam, I am normally against slpit duration types but the numbers dont lie. Last 4 cars they dynod with the same set up that I have with the LS6 heads and X1 cam put no less than 430 to the tires. They just had one put 445 down. Now I dont know if those are the infamous Texas HP numbers that I hear about but I decided to try this cam out. Its a big boy though....591 lift <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

You will love the setup. I'd have to say go for it on the X1 also. Those LS6 heads love the extra intake duration on smaller motors.

I know another local guy that just put in the order for the exact same setup. I would mention his name, but I'm not sure if he wants to be sneaky or not <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

I will definatly keep everyone ifromed once it all comes together. Only problem is the 8 week back order that MTI is on for the heads. I was told that the X1 had been in MTI's inventory for a while but they just recenty starteed testing it. I was also told the same thing nineball said. Something about the LS1 really like the extra intake duration. I will be in touch with MTI at a minimum of once a week to check on progress of the cam and heads set up as they roll them out. because I am so far down the line I can always change my mind on the cam after hearing more results on it.

You're definitely going to love the new-found power. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" /> Did Jayson, or anyone else at MTI, tell you about how much more power the X1 would make over the C2? I wouldn't expect the idle to be too different from the C2, and the reverse split pattern cams seem to be making some great power. I'm thinking of trying out a 228/224 XE-R on a 112 LSA this fall. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> I just don't know how much power it will be worth over my current 224/224 XE-R on a 112 LSA. Every little bit will help to be competitive in the SS/A class at the Thunder Shootout in November. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I'll have to check p. to v. clearance w/ 228 degrees of duration and .588" lift, though. If not, I'll be cringing on initial startup. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Can't go wrong with MTI <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I am sure it will be worth the wait!
