I bought and returned. Unhappy with the quality, and the fee I was charged to return them, was crazy. I would never do business with them again.

Most people use the LS1 to base thier needs off of. 2001 - 2004 Corvette's, Camaro Z-28's, and Trans-Ams. A 2004 GTO can be used as a base too since it has an LS1. I think the LQ4 is a truck motor.

SLP's are expensive when bought new. Try finding somone selling them in the "For Sale" section. Sometimes you'll find a great deal.

12's with the right mods is quite possible but no way 11's w/out a turbo. It'll be in the 11's with just the turbo on a stock motor. I wish the turbo was cheaper...

Bet you could hit 11s with slicks and a big shot of nitrous.

I have had many sets of reworked rockers from ZZP for my V6 Grand Prixs and never had a single problem with the rockers.

I'm using crane gold race rockers with LS6 springs and the power gain is amazing! The car idles much better and no longer has a 1-2 lag. I just need to get retuned and adjust my shift points to about 6200 or so. I got really lucky with the rockers, I put them on adjusted them once and haven't had a single problem yet. Don't use Cranes instructions!
