Good result, looks almost identical to Roger's LS2 Monaro.

Mmmmmmm, be good on the maloo

[vxrphantom]

Yes near as damn it i'm running a base tune at 8psi as opposed to Roger's 12psi so torque is just off his and about 10fwhp and 5rwhp off. Wortec reckon there is still some to go with a bit more tune time, but to be honest can't be too fussed, not like 10bhp will be missed!

Your right - i do Will have to wait sadly

Not bad, only 35 whp shy of mine @ 8psi which has a cam & AFR 225 heads. Shows how good the LS3 engines are.

I assume you will need a new fuel system, and will go forged for 12psi?


Note to self: Must try harder, now where's my 3" exhaust and pulley?

It was standard two months ago.....Good job interest rates are so low, not worth having money in the bank

Happy with power at the mo but had an interesting chat with paul at wortec regarding some headers and electronically adjustable suspension set up

Nice numbers, how does it feel to drive. Does the lower gearing give you the same type of traction problems or do the wider tyres hold grip?

TBH this weather hasn't really given me the chance to properly try it. At the mo traction is an issue Floored it in 4th at 90 and had wheel spin!! obviously not on queens high way........

Know what you mean.

(Think the speed limits are the same on the pavements too though)

Where should I send the custard? Public eating at the Ace ??

Very nice
Though the first graph is pointless...

No pressure on me then at the dyno.

First graph good for pub chatting!

And no - no pressure at all Rich... in fact thats your problem, no pressure! NA stands for not applicable in the high HP stakes!

Looks very good. 2 degrees cooler than when the 600 ran and lower boost, so seems the LS3 has significantly upped the ante.
