I like hanging with car guys. I have plenty of friends that build engines, and to get my fix, I go see them, and even work on stuff in my man cave, er shop. Ole Mavn has blown up more engines than you’ll ever likely build, and I don’t think he’s making power on accident. And I’m sure he’s not done yet. My opinion here is that you would get a lot more respect here if you’d ever just build an engine. It’s easy to talk smack, which you admit you do, and point fingers, but let’s see how your current build turns out. It’s not as easy as simple math and ideas from all your top 1% guys, to actually put 800 down on pump gas. It’s doable, yes, but it’s not as easy as you make it sound like. That’s why these guys give you crap. You talk the talk, and haven’t walked the walk. I’m not throwing stones here trying to make you mad. I hope your not. Not my intentions at all. Honestly I hope you make 850 on this build and earn everyone’s respect. That would be awesome, but it’s so hard to do, regardless of the formulas and equations that you’ve learned.
LS1Tech or LS1Sales as you call it, isn’t the place for the 1% that you hang with. Those folks hang out over on DTST or perhaps even YB, although it’s gone down the tubes over the last few years also. You’ve been talking about CSA for a while now, and you should see that no one here cares. Really, no one cares. That’s why 99% of folks here speak in CC’s of a head. Sure, figuring the CSA of any given port is easy enough to do with math, but nobody really cares to know that number, but a builder looking for real power. The rest of us…we’re just car guys. I got out of the business long ago. I wanted to actually make money in life, and it’s very hard to do in an engine shop.
Well said!

If a person's Cool with just posting about parts without the Want or need for gaining further knowledge on the subject, It's cool....

Also moving on and not 🖕 with them is even better....I hate stupidity or avg air Pump conversation

btw 850fwhp isn't Realist, Chevelle 👍, I didn't even read dudes post just saw your last quote Used.

I don't pay this 💩 no mind...I Post and keep it pushing. Not giving a ____. Everyone's not into it as much as others and I get it. Moving on cause there not Rookie's or green shoes...so they may not have the need or want... 🖕 It.

👍

I've tried not posting after certain people.. ..
Also even if I said the hell with all this Stuff and placed it out for heavy trash.


I'm still on point... that's what makes Air Pump knowledge Great. It's not about a Opinion. And everyone has one.

​​​​​With power adders 850 fwhp is very realistic but keeping it all together is where it get's challenging.

Never Brother, I just would like some of our Vets around here to be more Knowledgeable and Engine Formula driven besides the I used these parts and here's what to expect....

That's All end of story no Malice..

Same Story with Bortous and we became friends...

He learned and respected me and the subject afterwards once he got the bigger picture...

Little cam guru...😖. 🤣. Guy drove me crazy with questions once he started getting it. But I knew and understood cause that was me once.

What's right for me isn't right for everyone and vise versa... It's about Knowledge nothing more Nothing less.

Who would have thought a Larger port Ls3 head would make more Tq than a smaller port Cathedral head just a few yrs ago?
