Very nice.

Where in Cali are you? I wouldn't mind seeing this baby in person!

Very cool! At that kind of power output that engine should be perfectly fine.

I took almost 700HP before Gretchen blew apart the rods in his engine. From everything I've read, it sounds all the LFX needs is hardened pistons and rods to be a pretty bulletproof engine.

I'm a bit surprised there isn't more torque there, but that could be the computer nannies limiting that. Still, this is an awesome car!

Mine was vent to the air before catch can all I can say is on the v6 it will blow oil out the vents once in a while. That's okay if you change oil daily. If car is a dd I would look at install a catch can.
