Just got off the phone with Blake, the motor is still running great. Please stay out of our threads if you have nothing to contribute. No need to bump a thread from 6 months ago.

He does have numbers, Im sitting next to his Punk ***! He Just got a new tranny, then he's going to get some more accurate numbers. The whole 427 trying to push through a STOCK t-56 just wasn't working out. Who would have ever seen that coming? But it defiantly didn't blow up, I have a few videos of his build, and him putting the beat down on some Florida cars that I've been working on. It's a nasty setup, all I can say is thank god he's my friend with a car like that.

go to hear.
mind posting up some of those videos? lol
love to check them out!
reason for me asking about the overlap is that my new cam has a lot of overlap and i will be doing my own tuning. so, i wanted to know it is doable to make it "smooth" throughout. thanks!

Where the hell have you been man??? Long time.
Post some vids ASAP
TSP FTW.
The numbers were very close to 600 down here in florida, with a fairly conservative tune. Ive had speed inc and another company which asked not to be named build motors for me and i ended up tearing them down and rebuilding myself. The guys at TSP know their stuff, MyWs6 got his stuff from them and a lot of friends are extremely happy with their builds from TSP. Call up Jon Reynolds and just see what you guys can come up with.
i don't mind the rough idle. am glad it drives well. that is what i am after.
might have to hit you up and/or jason for some ideas.
The old 402 ended up spinning 2 main bearings in the bottom end and one of the intake valve springs broke and cracked one of the pistons. THat motor was bad luck since the day it came out of the crate, i had nothing but problems with that one, but thats what you get from speedinc when they dont keep their word.
