Another vote for some heads from Chris Frank. Seen some of his heads in person at the LS fest. They really are an amazing piece to see.

That's awesome. Was that on a engine dyno, and was the vacuum pump running?

Yes SF902 engine dyno, and yes vac pump was running but not at full efficiency only 8-9" instead of 14-16" like I wanted.

Hard to imagine a LS motor leaking what with all the o-ringed cover gaskets it uses- front, rear, valley, oil pan, and even the valve covers. Guess all that's left is to pulley down the vacuum pump?

It wasn't leaking we pressure tested the crankcase, it was pulling alot of oil into the pump after about 6000rpm. Going to make some changes there.

1 3/4" x 1 7/8" stepped headers with 3" dual exhaust and X-pipe.

I am think around 500/500 through a 6l80 and a Yank SS3200 converter.
Update: The car is now up and running. Once the break-in period is done I will have it dyno tuned and see what she puts down.
