Well doneclap,it must be very satisfying to do your own headwork and make some good gains like that.Where did you get your guidance for the headwork,if you dont mind me asking?What it an LS specific source,or from somthing more generalised?Anyway,keep up the good work,i find it really interesting following progress like thisyes

I bent a wheel on road test, spun it around intentionally at a cross roads, and the wheel dug into the camber and bent! looking at the graph 500lbs ft from 2400rpm-5800rpm, we reckon an aftermarket intake and more cam to go over 600bhp, but sluggishness is not something i'm suffering with! but i will do it next year. i'll post graph when I get home, but i'm using her as a repmobile in east anglia for a couple of days.

Sounds like a healthy figure. I take it that's not at the wheels. Got any graphs?
