I'm going to set up an inspection with G-Force next week and if they give it a clean bill of health.....I'll keep it.
I have PM'ed wait4me to see if he can shed some light, I'll try giving him a call this afternoon.

Quick update...
The only thing I have been able to do with the car is some basic inspections myself....unfortunately, I have been extremely busy at work and have not been able to get it to G-Force for dyno tuning.
I pulled one of the plugs (#2) and car appears to be running lean...TR6 plug looks toasted. I'm having them replaced before I take it in for a new tune.
Here is what I know about the car, some has been confirmed by Jesse the builder....I've decided to roll the dice and if **** blows up, I'll handle it then.
It is a 434 lsx engine, wiesco pistons, callies crank, and callies 1500hp rods.
GM LS7 CNC heads with del west ti valves
ARP Head Bolts and rocker arm bolts
Cam lift is in the 650" range
LPE Crank Pulley
Ported Throttle Body (W4M)
NGK TR6 plugs
It feels like there may be a converter in it, but who knows.
Need to call Jesse and get all the details......the thing has had very low priority since I picked it up.
I'll keep you guys posted.

Doesn't sound to bad, but I guess I am not a baller cause if i pay upwards of 50k for something I woulda had that checked out the same day I bought it.

"oh, your wife cheated on you?" here's a link to the dude's facebook and his mothers last known address...
"you just bought a car with an lsx block?" bet it was this one...
and the list goes on..
