LT5 with a ported blower and upper and lower pulleys and a re-tune sounds like a better option.

At least there is still someone I recognise, even if I disagree.....hopefully there is now 850hp from a TT LS9 which should solve the problem of being burnt off out of corners by 800hp focus race cars.....Ok it's ot road use but I'd still do the same for the road ha ha
Anyone heard anything about Mr GTW?

As I said it comes in for service and fixes from time to time.
6 speed, LS7 goes like stink and drives really smooth.

If I remember i'll take some pics next time it comes in.
