As soon as I have vids, they will be posted. It makes more power than the LS2 strokers when I decided.

The breakin is on hold right now. We've got low oil pressure issues, and we're trying to figure out what it is. Hopefully more info soon.

Did the oil pressure problem just start or did you have this issue on start up ?

What oil pump are you using, did you double check it with a mechanical gauge ?
