Bolo's solid roller LT1 new best!!! (video inside) Last edited by EMiNENT13; Nov 26, 2009 at 07:49 PM.
Thanks again Brian(EMiNENT13) for another awesome little vid.
I'm so happy with the car running this quick. I'm very sure a new best on spray would have been accomplished, but the stock 10 bolt could not keep up. Theres always next season.
Lloyd Elliott's work should really be recognized here. He really knows his work. Ion Soltan the Madtuner did a great job tuning the car@ Speed Inc's dyno. And last, but not the least, Larry for recommending them to me to look into.
Dave's Trans and 4000 stall Rocks!

When it was dyno tuned, it made approx. 400 rwhp. To me the numbers don't really mean much. It's at the track that matters more. The car was never weighed. Some weight reductions, but nothing extreme.

Verdad Gallardo Stock kmember and u/l control arms, qa1's shocks and springs up front. CE 3way shocks, stock springs(1coil cut) in rear. Subframe connectors,Spohn t/a, lower control arms, panhard bar, 1" rear sway bar. Very basic and budgeted.
I am dissapointed with myself for not going with that Sun. It would have been nice to see the car run in person. I would also like to say that you EMiNENT13 have some very good video and editing skills. Maybe one day when my turd is running better I could hire you for a little video work.
Congrats again Butch, you have now raised the bar for the rest of us stock bottomend users.

Butch that car is flying and congrats on the new setup. That car is just plain sick as hell. Sounds awesome and is moving I cant wait to see the nitrous kick in with the new rearend!!!!
Brian, I think it was 2 yrs. ago at Byron, but yes I do remember meeting you. Thanks for letting me know your up for pics and a vid. I'll get it touch with you next summer and see when your available. Hopefully during another Speed Inc. outing. About a month back or so there were a little over 50 cars at Speeds reserved lanes at Byron. Thanks, Rick.
Wow, I did not realize you converted to solid roller. Glad to hear the stock bottom end is hanging in there with what I assume is some pretty good RPMs. Congrats again. Beautiful car and killer, simple setup.
Agreed all around (although 10.75 @ 125 is far from being a turd in my book Rick ).
). Thanks Rick. You don't want to copy, Rick. You want to be FASTER!
ThreeHonks: Nothing special,StockLT1 heads(LE2 specs porting),LS1 valves, LE custom mild s/r 247/255 106lsa, Stock LT1 intake ported by Speed Inc. No secrets here.
Thanks Larry. This car wouldn't be at this stage without you and Speed Inc.
Speed#1: Thanks. I love it. And can't wait next season.
Thanks Joe. Knock on wood it's holding up on 6800 rpm shift points.
