why in the hell do you have 40 splines and drive studds?
I work on a car thats puts down tremendous power and it has gun drilled 40s in a 9" it runs 200+ in the 1/8 with .900 60'
why the hell would you put 40s in a street car? you rea;ize how much that rotating wt kills you? unsprung too. there is no reason for you to need 5/8 studs either...come on man your slitting your own throught.

The would be a horrible rear end for a street car, and would slow it down for no benefit at all.

The point of what I said was that the Dana I weighed was as heavy as it can get minus solid axles vs gun drill and a Detroit locker.
While on the subject though, the 40 spline Dana axle with the axle bearing pressed on and wheel studs installed weighed 2lbs more than a stock 10 bolt axle with wheel studs. The 40s were gun drilled.
Calm down hero. Where does it say that I have it?

I have LE2 heads and Intake. I too would bet my bankroll the AI 200cc heads and cam I have coming will out perform my LE2's. I opted for the GM847 when I got my LE2's because at the time I refused to run a Bauer cam and glad I did. I like my LE heads but its time to step up.
Thats what I thought, there are plenty of other companies/guys that do great work. We just like to argue alot here and IMO you cant go wrong with either AI or LE, TEA or a number of smaller shops. Look at Larry's car, stock heads ported local and runs a LE custom HR cam. Car runs mid 10s all day. Just choose who ever you feel comfortable working with.
In the end LOTS of places do great work, and like mentioned above its a total package that make cars fast. Not just a set of heads. Ive seen both Terrible and great results form LE and AI on this site!

Yeah Id be willing to bet its not the Heads its the rest of the set up. Seems alot of people half *** **** thinking they will come out with the same results as a well thought out/executed set up.
If that theory is correct there have been far more LE buyers that have failed "in the execution than actual parts..."
P.S. EB porting has done some good things in years past. He just hates mdacton because he's such an *******.

Is it the extra cubes?
The LT4 heads?
The bigger valves?
your awesome driving skills?
I sure would love to know your secrets to a solid roller 396 running low 12s and 11.99 on a full moon
Weak argument. I prefer all the niceties my car offers and would rather not to use a sawzall to my **** just to brag about a number. You're no more special than any other hillbilly who hacks out hundreds of pounds to make up for a **** weak engine.
You know as well as I do LPE > all.
