Now that would be worth trailering it down to y'all to work on!

I love it when folks call em' Lowly LT1's. It so easy to get the HP out of them compared to...uh...other models

Just a ballpark but what did it cost to get those numbers out of it?

I may have to trailor the LT1 there as well it is in another shop in Houston right now, G- Force seems like they want customers. Even if we LT1's are the bastard children of the F-Body community.

Posted this in the Dyno Forum but I will try here as well

Man this car sounds a lot like the car i am building right now. I like your head porter . What AFR heads did you guys start out as, and I bet flow numbers are around 288-290 at .600 lift (but there is more than flow numbers going on with those heads) instead of the G-force 12 rib setup I think you would have liked the SDCE custom tensioner 8 rib setup better. Its a B!tch to get those 12 rib belts lol. What pulley combination you running a 7.625 and a 3.4 or 3.3 Blower pulley, should see about 58000 Blower Rpm shifting at 6200 using the D1SC. Speed engineering is having a Awsome deal on 4l80E trannies now, but who built the 4l60E for ya??
I see your running 64lb injectors what is the duty cycle at 6200. I was planning on running the 60lb mototrons.
Still running the twins I wonder what a Big FMIC could do as well.

I know you don't want to give Cam specs but can you maybe PM me a HINT, I don't care to give you mind, just wondering how close they are??? If I had to guess you guys could be using some pretty aggressive lobes thats why your only spinning it to 6200, or just b/c the fact that you have a blower and you don't want to spin it real high, lo

Sorry for so many questions but I am shooting for the 650-700RWHP range myself and you have a VERY SIMILIAR setup to mine.

BTW AWESOME NUMBERS
