nothing special really... just a darton sleeved LS2, 427ci, and probably RPM T6060 built transmission and rear end.... twin turbo kit going to be the same except I am going to heat wrap all these pipes. and I am putting a real boost controller. eboost2. the one I had was a junk. when we set it at 14psi. it will creep out to 17psi... so I throw that one out and now running on the wastgates springs only.....

Edit: there is damage to the engine already, thats why I kinda dont care. I know I shouldnt be driving it hard, but you know how it feels driving a boosted vette haha. we did a compression test and it was around 120-125 on all cylinders!!
Low compression on all cylinders sounds more like an error in the testing method rather than a hurt motor.

this thing drinks oil like crazy... which also tells me that the rings/pistons might be damaged...!! I am going to rebuilt it anyway to lower the compression so we will see...

also the shop that did the compression test been building engines for 20years I am sure they know how to do a compression test? I dont know!
