Look what came in today... Now who is the owner?




Someone else picked up a trophy today but I'll let him brag about it later.

A lot of young bucks are putting together some big cubed small blocks, guess we will have to move on to the LSX and 454ci to get anywhere, lol. Though we have some more to ge here, and you for certain. Got your tune sorted out yet?

I'm hoping it makes 850 to the tires the way it sits (after tuning). IF it does, it might have ~950 in it with different pulleys. We'll see.

Lets just say that the DFI is still not correct and that TH400's eat power for breakfast, lunch & dinner. But the AFR is spot on. We'll see how it runs this weekend.

That might be the last time my TA beats ya.

I pulled 363.8 hp at 5000 RPMS.... then she missed bigtime (see 3:08 to 3:16 in video for the 'bucking' dyno pull) Just got a new hub today.... hoping to get it all sorted out next weekend... 7000 redline is a nice feeling for a 396 LTx.

My appologies to the LTx enthusiasts out there... I couldn't even break 400. (though I DID have 350+ftlbs from 2000rpms and above!!!! )

EASY there Hoss... I havn't even pulled 450hp (yet).

Don't tell me I need to get the giggle gas in my garage installed! Let's all just take a deep breath and be happy the LTx engines only averaged 502 hp.... and 1 of them didn't pass 5 grand.

If YOU escalate hp, then WE escalate hp... it's a never ending cycle of LTx/LSx cold-war-dom.

Can't we all just get along? (and let the LTx's win)
