Awesome. I'm excited that I finally talked to my installed about installing some parts in May. I'm going with the AI 226/234 complete cam kit, a new fuel pump and a bunch of other stuff. Can't wait!

You better call him Lloyd Elliott-not Elliott LLoyd. ...or I guess we will have to start referring to his packages as EL1, EL2...

That seems like a decent cam selection...I run a Joe Overton/Erson grind thats 226/234 .568" on a 111 lsa...and thats in a 383....These motors love the smaller duration higher lift stuff...That should be a great street/strip cam with nice drivability...check out my trap speed in my sig if you don't think those weenie cams work...

I don't wanna tell you how to run your set up, but you might want to look into spending the extra couple hundred bucks and get his LE2 heads. Just an idea. That way if you decide to step up your build in the future you will have the heads to flow it.

P.S. I just talked to Loyd and he's not going to make up your package cause you got his name wrong

do you plan on drag racing or dyno tuning once it is back together? very interested in what the LE1 can do, as everybody usually goes with the LE2 and we know what those can do.

Yes def gunna have it tuned the right way well i think the le2 heads will only add another 10 hp and in my eyes for another 400 its not worth 400 what do you guys think??? Sorry i messed up the name lol

Lloyd says 10 just to cover his ***. Id bet 25HP or more. He told be While its possible to break 400rwhp expect around 390 with my LE2s. I put down 414RWHP with a Dana S60 rear(which robs alot of HP on the dyno) and cut out. I have since switched to True Duals for more power. So Im guessing 425ish now.
Id bet its gonna be tuff to break 400rwhp NA with the LE1s

Stock cube motor ? I don't see low 11's with that combo unless you have some serious weight reduction big gears and a high stall 4000 maybe but, I can see some high 11's to possibly mid 11's either way not bashing your set up.


Good luck on the build.

Those are some good mods you might see some mid 11's but it takes a lot to go bottom 11's on a stock short block. IMO

Keep us posted good luck man.
