Here it iseveryone!! Spent 10hrs on the Dyno changing wrong vacuum tees that we're leaking, tightening bolts, fixing holes in welds, etc but we finally got it! Running pump 93+meth, 26-27psi, 18* timing. Stock gm head gaskets and a converter slipping 1100rpm. If I would of locked the converter car would of picked up another 50+whp but im not about making false numbers. Car spools fast, and holds power very nice through the rpm. I couldn't ask for anymore than this after the road I just went down with getting it built. Enjoy the video everyone!

So.. You think this is as much as you can make with the car?? You think this is as far as youll go?? If so, hows it feel?? Does it make you want to move on to something new now??

Any future plans that youre looking forward to with it??

That is awesome stuff John!!!! I hope you and your wife enjoyed your time in Canada getting it tuned.

Now my question, have you met your desired goal of fastest 3800 on pump fuel? If not, how close?

Regardless, the numbers you have indicate that thing is a BEAST!! Should be fun to get some quarter mile times.

Oh, and how does it compete to the CTS-V you guys have???

Thanks all, it felt amazing! Kevin warned me I was on a ticking time bomb with factory head gaskets with anything over 580whp and he was surprised it held up on the Dyno. He said I need to get some mls gaskets in it asap. Sure as ****, making some pulls around home the front head gasket decided it was done with life and exited the engine 😂😂 im not even mad. I can't be mad, he warned me lol. So the engine is apart, I am dropping heads off tomorrow to have them checked for flatness and if they are good on goes the MLS gaskets and back together she goes. If the heads are warped then I'll pull the block and have it checked also. I think they are fine though as it never got above 228° before getting off the road. Anyway, she will be back together soon, then after a little break in period I'll get her to the track

As far as racing the V, if I get this thing to hook it will walk the V for sure. It's making 50whp more and weighs 500lbs less.

Anyway here is another shot of a video she shoots massive fireballs btw
