That kinda adds to my point, that they have a lot of cars out there and none putting down toptier numbers. Am I just not seeing them?

No lift needed..

I actually had to replace wifes driver side header after her axel broke it and took out the weld on the collector. Took it off in garage I used a floor jack only.. took header down to a muffler repair shop and got it welded back up didnt take any time at all..

I used a lift on mine even though I did my install through the top.. it helps messing around with cutting and getting off the factory clamp on the cats.

What does this have to do with your statement of them not working on LT motors? Anyone who has a ported blower, new blower, headers, throttle body, pulley, cam is making the standard 775+rwhp there. Add in meth and more.


There was a 1000k+ z06 on the dyno when I was there, the money jump from the parts I just mentioned is alot. Much different then just slapping on a new blower, porting stock lt4 and tossing a cam and ported heads on it to hit that horsepower.

With the LTx stuff Theresa huge difference between dyno numbers and real acceleration under load. We know this as there are full weight bolt on SS cars with 480rwhp wasting head/cam ss cars or even bolt on ZL1s which should be an easy slaughter...every time.
So do they have any examples of fast cars laying it down on a strip in real life is what I’m getting at. I haven’t found it. Not trying to start anything but really looking for someone to point me to them if they’re out there

I’m with you on this. Even his old black ZL1 never impressed me with track numbers. That car had way more parts than mine, and made more power on the dyno, but did not have the numbers at the track.

Only car that impressed me they built was Nicks 2017 ZL1. No money was spared on that build.

There's plenty of their cars doing 9's or 8's at the strip. I mean if your that concerned get a tune done using a mustang dyno that reads 15% lower but puts quite a load on the car. Mustang dyno's are the best to tune on, if your making the power there, then strip times should reflect that.


Also, I don't think they were tuning the TCM standard and i think now on most decent power builds they are. The torque management is a real problem on the A10's if the TCM isnt tuned and torque limits raised.



In any case there's dozens of places to go, so pick one If not happy goto another.

That would be great, keep me posted.

Can I ask how much power you were making? With the 775 package and the big boy LT4 Cam package I am hoping to make over 700 RWHP.
I am from South Jersey in Cinnaminson. Private message me and I could meet up with you all at anytime.

Any word on when it will be done?
