That is pretty...

What are you guys putting to the wheels with LS7 builds and your drivetrane setup?
Maybe we can calculate an aprox. drivetrane loss here.

I'll post mine when I get it back on the dyno. With new 1 7/8 ATS headers, more than just 200 miles on the engine, and an oil change I'm hoping to see well over 500 with my
4l60e. Driveline loss of probably 17%-21%

Sweet ride, getting ready to do a similar swap to my vert 02 SS; were you able to use the stock ls1 computer or did you have to swap to another? I have heard mixed things about the ls1 computer not syncing with the ls7?

Thanks!
