I honestly have to say this have been one of the best examples i have ever seen of:

A. a auto enthusiest esp. an LT1 enthusiest not dicking around, buying all the right parts, going to the right people,and getting his car done right the first and only time... so hats off to you AC your the man

B. A shop who does not dick around, gets their builds done asap and with amazing amazing quality and informing their customer and having an amazing customer/shop relationship... Again Hats off to Speed INC ... i wish i lived closer... i really really do...

C. Loyed Elliot's magic proves supreme once again... and also his involvement with the customer and being so good and keeping up with his build...

This honestly is one of the best, if not the best example of "the perfect build" everything working perfect, amazing cooperation between customer, assemblier (if thats even a word) and parts supplier...

Hats off to all you guys congrts!

I may just do that if I can get some free time of my own today or tomorrow morning.

I'm curious myself

Man, it's ***** to the wall or bust in this thread! That's freaking awesome! I think it was a great idea to go ahead with the cutout. On my old cam only LT1 I went from 310 rwhp to 323 rwhp (A4 car) with just a 2.5 inch cutout. I definitely think that it will keep your car over 400 rwhp after the rear. Can't wait to find out

Again hats off to everybody involved, Loyed another wicked setup and customer service is great, speed inc. good job makin it happen looks like good clean work, AC man you know what your after and thats cool to actually see somebody not scimp.

I'd would love a setup like that, my funds aren't gonna make that happen anytime soon though But hopefully sooner than later I can get with LE on a setup

Keep the video's comin, this is a great build can't wait to hear that thing scream!

Thumbs up Awesome!

S60 with open cutout

413rwhp
366rwtq

S60 with closed cutout

396rwhp
350rwtq

so if he would have got to me sooner on the cutout prior to the S60 he would have had even better bragging #'s in the 425 rwhp area

he has graphs and a dyno with the cutout closed to post..dang camera died for the open cutout run

AC, i still pretty much hate you. that car is sick man and that install is very clean. i'm impressed by everything you had done. lloyds the man with lt1s and obviously when speed inc gives you an appointment, you're the #1 priority. hats off to you AC for doing things right by going with the right guy in lloyd to put your parts together, and for going to the right shop to dial her in. might just have to get ahold of larry when it comes time to do mine(if that ever happens, lol). congrats again man...i'm truly jealous

I'm not sure I'd waste my time with that. With the kind of power you're putting down, that clutch is going to slip - even on street tires. Ask me how I know.

Ive run 11.2s @ 120+ on a stock clutch and it actually held( dont ask me why I know)LOL!.
Seriously as long as the car makes it home I really dont care since its getting changed anyways! Im really interested to see how it traps. If it slips a bit out of the hole It wont kill me!

Looks like I need a cut out 2...I'm sure Larry can add it to the list for the winter mods

I assume your running a 3"catback to see that kind of pickup?

It looks like it turned out very nice! If you stay N/A id definitely look into 4.56s and a 28" tall tire to fully make use of your rpms...That thing should be a blast to drive...Those who know me know that Im not a big fan of dyno numbers, however, whats nice about your graphs are the areas under the curves...Thats where the fun lies...Table top flat torque curve and nice gradual, non-peaky hp curve...looks very nice...Now tune your suspension and have a blast...I would think itd trap 120 with the right gear...Kudos to LT1 er eh, LS1 Speed...
