I build ALL my own stuff....everything but machine work or balancing. From washing the bugs off to setting up the ring/pinion or filing the rings...it's ALL me. The Dyno tune is ALL Geoff Skinner, other parameters and trans controller tune is me also. This trans will see at least a couple 8sec passes at some point, just to say it did.
The cam in the car now has over 40* overlap and the brake pedal is just a little tighter on the power-assist. 233/276 @.050 , now that's a split![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)

With that big of a cam I'd think you'd benefit from hydro boost but I know nothing of what can fit in the corvette engine bay.

Have any corvette guys gone to hydro boost? I know we truck guys do the conversion and I just bought my friends truck who did that to his truck. That way you wouldn't have to worry about the power assist. When I was running my big cam I had 6" of vacuum at idle, braking was just stupid.![Barf](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_barf.gif)

The cam in the vid eventually came to be known as the "LS7 Striker" and it idled around 950, drivability is a subjective thing, but most would not want to live w/ that in a 6 speed car. Bucking in any gear below 1600rpm unless under load (accel). Playing w/ low rpm timing is one thing, but u can't tune out overlap. However, that cam and even larger drive just fine in a stalled auto, and the bucking becomes a very mild, pleasant surge and then only when idling down the street.
