I guess it's not bad for an "LT1".

Is it a stock 5.3 or did you change some rods and levers on it?

I never understand that ****. Bragging about torque on a turbo car is kind of lol. I mean anyone with nitrous makes all the torque they can handle.

Also when you label a thread "Turbo LT1 Results" and then provide nothing, thats retarded.

No one in the world has a super secret LT1 so get over yourself dude.

It resulted in getting on a dyno and being successful. One of few running turbo LT1s.

Super secret? Get off your high horse, the build thread is posted across the web with full details, just not this place.

Go run 8s in a tube chassis car.

Nice job SNM! I saw the graph somewhere on the internet I had to look twice at that graph because the numbers seem like they should be flipped. The first number will come up quite a bit on the re-tune. Get a rear end in that thing soon.. That poor 10 bolt is going to puke all over the place

Never understood all of that. If you have something that is working well and you are proud of, then by god don't worry about what everyone else thinks, because it doesn't matter unless you're actually looking for advice; which by the tone of your post it looks like you aern't.

Car looks great and sounds nice. The numbers looks like it wasn't a full pull though, which on a second look you seem to mention. It did sound like it ended early in the video...

I heard all the same **** when I built mine.

Your making some steam, so keep doing what you do.

BTW, that guy sitting next to the dyno obviously has never seen a driveshaft or a motor scatter on the rollers. Dyno is a dangerous place.

Yea, did not spin it very high, too much smoke in cabin etc.

Thanks man, so far the hodgepodge of parts seem to be doing just fine.

I have a steel shaft with DS loop but yea, def scary to be sitting, guess you get complacent after a while of doing these things?
