I'm Awesome
My biggest thing is a don't know anything about em. Yeah I've talked to people and read posts and looked at vids, they all say its the greatest thing since sliced bread. I have no personal experience, but sat shotgun with stock vehicles, only one haven't been in was the 8.1. None of then impressed me, stock. Don't know how good he is or if he's a good talker, but Richard Holdener dyno'd a shitton of em, and small blocks, with good results. He put a turbo on a basic 4.8 and made close to 600 horse. The power goes up as the motor gets bigger, as the saying goes "no replacement for displacement". I've looked on marketplace, and only found one 454 reasonably priced, even found another 400. But local junkyard is literally flooded with them. So, if I get one and it's junk, be a pain, but i could go pull another one for a couple hundred bucks. Wouldn't need the accessories. When LS first started getting popular years ago, buddy put one in his Camaro, kinda like a test mule. He went carb'd with a turbo, but when something happened to the motor, he just go get another one, for a couple hundred bucks. He found what works, what didn't, then I think he built a 6.0 turbo and making stupid power. What's killing me is I can't do anything till garage is up. Luckily getting put up the 17th, but with no concrete till spring prolly, still cant do much other than storage.
