I just shed a tear...

I've never seen a N/A LSx street motor, or even semi-street motor make nearly that much power.

You don't get out much, do you?

Quite often actually, I went out 3 times last month alone.


Most 427"ish motors seem to make power 540-550rwhp range. Show me one that's made over 600 on motor with 93 octane friendly compression ratios.

That's why I asked "what engine." > "Duh!" I didn't see anywhere in his post "what engine" it was so the "duh" was uncalled for. I'm not a post ***** in this board so I don't know all the people and what they are running... It was a reasonable question...Like it or not. And nothing was said about "friendly compression ratios, "93 octane", yada, yada... You "assumed," not me. End of story!

I think we have a huge misunderstanding here!

I was not directing my post toward you at all, nor your post about which engine this is (which was a perfectly normal question). I was not the one who said "duh", and my shedding the tear was with respect to someone laying down 620rwhp n/a, and most nearly CAM ONLY! I was not addressing you at all, and surely meant no disrespect!

When i said "street motor, or even semi-street motor", I was implying 93 octane (daily driverish) fuel. I've certainly seen motors put out more, but they were not in the same catagory. In this post I was speaking to you, because I got the feeling you were trying to be an asshat to me for no reason!

Wow, that's awseome guys, way to go. Take it that's some good compression (not 93 octane friendly) in that car?

Lou, you are the Man!!! Congrats!!! Looks like I will be talking to you about head work & cam! Now you really make me feel good about my 1-3/4" to 1 7/8" equal length stepped LT's for my LS7!

Keep up the great work and pioneering efforts with this LS7!

Way to maximize the area under the curve Lou. Your hard work and R&D really have paid off this time. Major props to you and the LG crew!

It has been tested by an independent third party. The K headers (referred to in the 6th post of the below thread) are 1 7/8" Kooks and the L headers are LG pro tubes 1 3/4". The LG's made 20ish more ft./lb. of torque w/ nearly identical peak horsepower on a cammed LS7.
