Default Quick vid of my car

I dont post on here too often but here are a couple clips of my SOM WS6. I just got it done last weekend and was able to enter it in the car show in Gaston. There were a total of 468 cars this year. I entered the best pipes for fun and ended up winning! Like I said I just got it running a few days earlier so it needs some tuning and I had the rev limiter set too low. Sound quality isnt the best either since it was taken from a digital camera about 100 feet away but you get the idea. It is much louder in person! The basic specs are 455ci ls2, ls7 heads/intake, American racing headers, mufflex 4 inch.

Hey Andy. Haven't seen you post on here in a long time. Glad to see you finally got that car running. Been a long time coming. Bobby told me about some the issues you had with the first build. Total bummer there.

Have you had it on the dyno yet by chance?

Mike

No dyno time yet, it still in need of tuning. I've only had it goin for a little over a week. I also need to get rid of the 75 mm MAF and lid. Hopefully should get it on the dyno within the next month. I see you've gotten your car on the road, hows it been running? I'll have to meet up with u and some of these LS1tech guys. I see there have been a couple northwest meets already.

Yes a meet would be good. Not sure of what's coming up, but there was some talk of maybe a cruise up to Mt St Helens or something.

My car's running pretty good. Trying to get the car put back together for PIR this coming Friday. I made alot of changes to the car since last month. Your car sounds mean as hell btw.
