Default TSP 402 is in
Got my 402 in Saturday and fired it up at 4:01 cst and man does that thing sound awesome. Special thanks goes to Jon, Trevor and all of the guys at TSP for putting up with my **** for 8 weeks. The install went well and the engine fired right up. Over the weekend I put 250 or so miles on it and man this thing has some torque. Thanks for all your help.

Did you do the install or did they do it for you? I'm having them install a 402-ls2 for me in my gto right now, so I hope it doesn't take no 8 weeks

Any details on the motor? Just wondering what you went with as far as head milling and gasket thickness.

Well if it does take that long.. I am sure it will be worth the wait.. I waited 2months for my 408 Longblock to get here.. And I tell you it was well worth the wait. If I was to do it again I would not hesitate calling Jon and having him build me up another one.

BTW walker congrats on the car..

Well they had just gotten a shipment of 402 shortblocks the day I dropped off my car and one was already set aside for me, so it shouldn't take that long.

The wait was the machine shop that they use. And as far as my motor, all my parts are in sig. I have a set of 317 6 litre heads that have been ported and have 2.08, 1.60 valves. The car runs strong and has great torque. I have a direct port kit but I dont intend to spray it till I get 1,000 or so miles on it. Thanks everyone, I will get some track times soon.

Ran it at the track saturday night and it went 1.61 60', 7.11 @ 97.59mph N.A. I still had some tire shake with the D.Rs, so I am gonna put the slicks on it next weekend. Plus it was like 89 degrees and humidity was at 80%. Hopefully she will go 6.80s and then I will put a fast on it.
