Katech build the BEST LS engines bar none. They are the ones that build the C5R and C6R engines for the Corvette and Cadillac race teams. No one and I mean no one can really compare IMHO including all of the sponsors. Go check out their website.

How is it that he only ran 11.2 with a 640 hp engine? Am I missing something here? The 10.85 is closer to what I would expect.
