[QUOTE=syborg tt;734994]I can’t believe how good the engine bay looks


Thanks Marty ... this was a very tough decision as for the same amount of $$ I could have purchased an LT4. Building an LS3 Crossram is VERY expensive and now I know why most people don't do it. BUT, as you know I like to build sh!t that most do not. So yes I do give up some power Vs the LT4, BUT look at all the builds these days, all you see is LT4's.

I wanted to see something very special when you open the hood, and quite honestly I think we can all agree that the 'right' amount of HP for a street car is 500 whp and I am hoping that this is what we will see on Wednesday.

Cheers
Steve

I jest, 500 rwhp is a lot of fun. Good luck on the dyno.
