Hey guys, thanks for having me. My name is Gavin and I currently work at Frankenstein Engine Dynamics. Not to worry, I won't be flooding with advertising or anything. I'm just here to read, observe, and input knowledge whenever and wherever I can. I've had a few LS cars to include a 08 TBSS, H/C LS2 C6, and now my turbo 5.3 79 c10.

gen4 5.3, ljms stg2 turbo cam, holley hi ram
China S475 w/a2a
4l80e, 3200rpm Circle D converter thats way out of its comfort zone
e85
Stock 12 bolt w/3.90 gears and a yukon duragrip LSD
17x8/15x10 Jegs Section 8 wheels with 315/60/15 et street R's out back. It doesn't need a 30" tire to hook up, but cruising at 2200rpm at 70mph is pretty nice lol.
made 717whp unlocked on a dyno dynamics, 14.5psi, super conservative 13* timing. Its currently on 16*.

Looking forward to seeing everyone else's builds and speaking with everyone.
