    Attn: Larry GTO, here is the vid!

    As ive been putting the final touches on this build for Larry, that included an engine build to fortify the stock LS1 with forged pistons and rods to hang from the stock crank, a 4l60E i built for it and converted it to a 65E, installed the TVS2300 magnacharger that was meant for a LS2 car so it took some work to get everything to work right. New fuel system to support the mild power goal on E85.

    So here it is, it made 640HP and 600 ft/lbs on the first pull, blowing through the converter pretty much on the first pull. The vid is the second pull where i added some fuel and it dropped 8 hp but its around 11.2. Done with 15 degrees of timing, about 15 psi and an unlocked converter. had i tried to lock the converter for a pull it would have been right around 700 at the wheels and 650tq. didnt want to try that to spare the poor trans the extra strain. Its been a long time to build this and had some issues getting it to run decent at first but its really shaping up, it drives really damn good and has manners. This thing needs to stay at the power level its at to preserve the trans and its getting close to end of the rope on the 94# injectors.

    The centrifugal blower-like whine is the clogged blower gears.

    Click to play: green towel is to protect the intake from the hood that touches it a bit till he installs the new hood.
