Chris,

Did you try www.schwartzperformance.com?

Seems to be working ok from here, although the alien link http://www.schwartzperformance.com/alien.htm
No longer works.

He, I believe is on his travels again in Orlando at the Performance Racing Industry Show and will not be back till monday.

Have you got some work done by Jeff?

the car should be in the Czech Republic. Was originally a factory build with AS engine. Then converted by Jeff to LS7 TT, a turn key project, so he has all information. Car is (or was) probably back with Jeff for a re-build, after the engine blew up - which I understand was rather in the owner´s responsibility than Jeff´s fault...

An LS7 TT will have a compression of 9:1 static (dished pistons) or over. It's almost impossible to get less due to the dimensions of the engine. You can get a lot less dynamic compression with the right cam choice. So, what I'm saying is the owner has to have some mechanical sympathy/understanding of his engine. Wind it up to hard on the torque, get something wrong and she'll pop a piston before the knock sensors can save it.
