Jessica,
I don't know exactly who you are but we are still on good terms with Joe and Amber so to stop any drama we simply couldn't get on their stuff as soon as they wanted and needed and Joe had some free time so they finished their engine up themselves. I ordered and spec'd the block stuff and we did the machining for the Jesel front drive etc. Greg Good did the heads and cam and springs etc and spec'd that crazy cam they have. Joe is also a grad of SAM and has done tons of engine work himself and at some big shops like Lingenfelter so he honed the block and assembled everything else to get in on the dyno and running.
I am very glad to see it all together and running as Joe and Amber have put TONS of money and work and effort into getting to this race and I didn't blame them one bit for wanting to take over here and finish it up since they have so much invested in this upcoming LSX race. Anyway again we are very happy to help Joe and Amber and their crazy project any time we can so don't worry about us! They have been very good to us and it's been a pleasure to help them out. They (lil urn) used our DRO Bridgeport even today so we're all good!
Like Aaron just said a lot of people helped them out including Don with all the Big Stuff 3 problems they had and Judson at SAM and many many more.

I am also astounded at how high the engine makes power to but I guarantee it will make even more power than it did when Joe dyno'd it and it is more optimized in time. The cam is in too far retarded probably right now so that will pick it up and lower the peak some for sure. They just ran out of time on the dyno and needed to get the engine in their car. I ran the P to V on that engine with three cams and all of them all the way advanced and retarded on to see how much more we could mill the heads after I re-CC'd the heads that day and Greg was able to get a little higher compression with these last pistons. They can advance the cam out at the track.
Joe and Amber definitely deserve to get to that race and I hope their testing goes well for them getting their clutch right. It will definitely haul ***!

Congrats again to you two. I know this process has taken quite sometime, but you sure do have a VERY nice motor!
Let me know when all of you go testing! Love to see this car run. Good luck in Memphis as well, Going to be some fast cars out there, but if you can get that clutch locked in, you will be hard to beat. 156 mph traps ++ here you come!

Awesome Joe and Amber. I missed you Friday by just a few minutes at your shop. Didn't want to bother you while you were on the dyno. Glad it made the power you knew it would.
