Default I cannot believe my motor is still alive

after 3 years. 150+ lbs of nitrous oxide through this motor varying between 150 rwhp and 200 rwhp shots, 17 lbs of boost, and 6800 rpm operation...this motor is still alive. I just did a leak down test on my stock bottom end motor. All cylinders are between 10 and 15% leakdown.

if that doesnt tell you that LS1's are the ****..idk what does.

EDIT...i didnt do nitrous, turbo, and 6800 rpm all at once lol
