Yet completely disregard all the setups running a 306 cam, ported heads on the stock bottom end running well into the 11's. You were around LT1's in the 90's, no? If so, you should know exactly what I'm talking about. The only time I take this as pure entertainment value is when I run across knuckle heads like you who take yourself far too seriously along with the whining and the crying. With the way you post up sometimes in this forum with your horse **** indirect threats I would hope to God you are half my age. Stop arguing about dyno numbers. It's retarded.

I agree. It's down right silly a difference of opinion can't be shared without mental patients going crazy. It would appear the only way to keep them calm and in a happy place is to agree to whatever they say unconditionally.

im with you AC this guy has got to be smoking something if he thinks the LE'2 cant break 370rwhp with an auto my car has stock heads and a CC503a FLT lvl 4 and a yank SS3600 and put down 347rwhp and 383 ft.lbs tg to the wheels

so im sure the le2 setup would be good for AT LEAST 370 rwhp

You are one of the very few. It's just my opinion based on things I've observed. You should've read some of the PM's I've received by those who are a lot less calm whenever I've shared these opinions before. Everything from attacking my wife and kids to going into great detail about me having sex with my dead father. Classy bunch of folks...
As said, if you can pull off 117mph in the 1/4 w/ that setup I'll be the first to congratulate you and say I'm wrong.

Most people on this board really because dyno numbers actually mean anything. The last dyno i made with my car was on a land + sea dyno? (like mustang a guess) and i made a WHOPPING 399 RWHP and 360 RWTQ with a 12:1 396 lt1. My car must be broke!! cam only lt1s with shortie headers make this much!! OMG!!!

I was on one dyno from a place called Area51 in DFW years ago. Car dynoed 70rwhp less than what it had done on a different dyno before. Moron operating it said exactly that, "your ***** is broke!" and then tried to sell me on changing up the combination. When I told him I wasn't interested it was as if I kicked his puppy. The next weekend I cracked his *** at the track. He did nothing but mouth from then on out. ******* characters and their **** piles... Needless to say, peak dyno numbers are crap.

Wow thats pretty sad. I personally find a lot of your posts very entertaining. Reminds me of the days when we would be street racing till 5am arguing most of the night about the race details. lol
Ill give my best this friday if everything is working right with the new trans. Now When I was making the bet I was basing it of my 383, 24x-25x cam with the single plane and LE2s, but Im very confident the motor in the car makes more than 370 to the tires with the auto. After pulling the t56 its amazing how heavy the clutch and flywheel are compaired to the converter/flex plate set up. Got to be 20+ pounds lighter.


BTW if anyone wants to buy a Mcleod Street twin/flywheel and adj slave set up let me know. **** is almost brand new.
