Thx man!

All the time I spend there, I'm surprised we haven't run into each other. Did you ever tell Bob-O I said hi? :thumbsup:

Nice pic Skip! Yeah these guys have been doing World's fastest street cars, Hemis, boat motors, race car fab, you name it. I was surprised to see Euro Exoctic in there, but they do that too!

Thx buddy. I won''t forget seeing - who was it Mike Norris - @ RTTC1 timing your car on the AutoX saying, 'man that car's fast.' There's a lot of good power out there, but seeing you run showed me what it really takes...:thumbsup:

Yeah, can't wait Wayne! Thinking Borlas will be too quiet for this one...:D

I sure did and he said HEY back!!

^ Thx Bro! Great vid...:yes:

I think he said "borderline scary". Haha Power certainly doesn't hurt your chances. Road racing is where it really makes a difference. We've seen low powered cars be very successful in autocross and the speed stop.

When do you plan to dyno and what numbers do you expect?

I went thru many TB's on my previous LS Engines from aftermarket 90mm to 102mm and the best TB that gave me zero problems was the Stock Ported TB's, plus I never noticed any gains with the Larger TB's.....I Have the spiral ported by V-Max will see how that performs.....I was told it should help tuners dial in surging/bucking with large cam setups :lol:

I like that you didn't go with a big duration cam like many do. That should keep some awesome low and mid range in that beast. Should be a great all around motor. :thumbsup:

Yeah that was the quote. And watching your last left and down the straight proved it.

Dyno's somewhat unknown. Shooting for 550 rwhp and a tall/flat torque curve. Getting rid of the Ti rods added a little weight, but the whole assy is weight matched and Crower rods are are called Maxi Lights. I did keep the lightweight valvetrain, so if a I get a lttle less top end but gobs of upper torque I should be good. Let me know what you think?

So true. AFAIK, the intake has a bigger effect than the TB. A big TB on a stock intake is like putting a paper towel roll up to your nose.

Let me know on the spiral Phillip! :thumbsup:

I'm so jealous Ron. Those heads are beautiful. :wow: :wow:

Epic update Ron - that thing is going to be a little monster! Can't wait to hear it and to see what you think of the clutch/fw setup. How long before you think you get to run it?

Q: You mentioned FAST rails on the stock (ported) LS7 intake. I swear I've seen such a beast but when I called FAST last week they claimed there was no such part - only the ones for their LSX(R) intakes. FAST also makes them for Katech now but again, only for the LSX(R) intake. I'd love a set like that for the stock intake. Mast had their Black Label rails but stopped making them. Any hint on the part#? Otherwise might have to stick with my Aeromotive rails.
