WTF? That parking job looks intentional.

-
I have one then. With fuel rails and injectors. What do these go for?
$100 shipped.
Whats your paypal?

Good luck with the non-EGR LS1 version. You'd be better off with the EGR version and block the port off with a freeze plug.
Yup. Good to 23psi here...
-
Can you get that with a V8?
-
Love it!!
I assume/hope the clack in the video is a lifter tick?
-
That's really interesting, I wonder why? Better components? Shorter stroke?
Less stroke=less force intot the rod. Also the 4.8's have massive first ring lands. You need to rev them higher to get the max HP, but its eaiser on the rod to make 1000hp our of a 4.8 than 900hp on a 6.0. (considering the application in loan of ft/lbs over rpm)

Stay tuned for more boost and dyno numbers.
He had it listed for sale?
-
Did I read that right? 18psi of boost in a stock 4.8l bottom end?
Thats not supprising. Few people putting 30+psi to 4.8 and 5.3 SBEs

1) Great pics!
2) Is the orange peel in the paint really as bad as it looks in pics? I've seen oranges with a flatter surface. Jesus!

Looks like Brian's dyno

Cbus car?

DAN Buschur has always been the one to do the trans work. He like others has grown tired of David' attidtue and is on his own. I would 100% trust Dan to do my trans.

Thanks!
Good catch. Hmm.. I think I might jump on this. At the very least I could use the cover, rockers, and lifters from this engine, as well as the RH head for the core instead of my damaged head.
...as long as it isn't too new. Going to have to make some phone calls tomorrow.
What is there to think about here?
If it was local-I'd buy it and eBay the motor parts seperatly, and likely triple my money!

I am looking forward to start this week, I just had my vehicle inspected now I have to stop down and turn all of my paperwork into Columbus for my peer to peer license. I am surprised more car folks do not do this in colder months since there really isn't much going on. I work full time 50 hours a week and am planning on working Thursday and Saturday nights.
Good luck.
IMO, taking online classes to further your education in pursuit of a better paying career may be a better long-term option with this time commitment. but, thats just me.

Backstreet has been around just as long as IPS too. My coworker was going there in 02/03!
Longer I believe. Their website needs a refresh, but I think they opened their doors in 98/99. Than kind on longevity in this business with basically zero advertising means somthing for sure.
-
Saw this coming. I am shocked it lasted this long after their last expansion.
I have said for YEARS that Backstreet Performance performance builds a better car, and offered a better tune than IPS. Since Mark's car is no more, the fast car on CR Ray, has been going to backstreet for years. Its about an hour for most of you guys and would make a great fill-in for you needs.

I'm not hating on them for taking advantage of grants, loans, rebates, and abatements. Of coarse any business that has those kind of things available to them will take advantage of them.
I understand what you are saying about the superchargers, but you can't ignore that cost.
Musk might be a genius when it comes to most things, but thinking that you can bleed cash to the tune of 500 million dollar net losses annually isn't being a good business man, it's being arrogant and ignorant.

Bob Lutz is the man who brought us the CTS-V, G8, and modern GTO.Elon Musk produces slot cars for rich guys.
Lutz > Musk
Im with these guys.

2750 with me in it last time I scaled it. 300-500 heavier than everyone else in my class.
You should but that mill in a Colt.

Yes, real deal holy field LS1
I have a million inquires to hear it run, so when I get my injectors back I will toss it together enough to fire it up!

Ttt sent Jp a pic but they are factory manifolds nothing special for anyone else wanting pics
Clean-very similar to truck manifolds.
If my junk sells, I will buy

Real talk-I know Marc pays for advertising here so I wont step on his toes, but I can and often close Refi's and Purchases for people with 580 FICO, and sometimes less.
Yes, you, the guy with poor credit everyone says cant approve you for a loan-I may be able to help!
We have both helped a lot of CR members. Always defer to the experts!
