is this a fresh motor? looks good but will get better with more break in time.

I have a lq4 with milled, ported ls1 heads but have not dynoed with this setup yet. It feels strong though.

Those are low numbers, your about 20 HP low, you have more cubic inchs than a regular LS1.

Whats the CR, 9.2-1?
