Is Nicd doing the whole build, or just the tune?

Now, is that too much to ask

Dyno numbers arnt hard to get there but each Dyno is different. Just with tsp vvt2 cam and 11.4:1 heads im at 470. Sure with bigger cam could have easily been up around 500rwhp but didnt have all these choices when i did my cam. Was tsp or mast pretty much

Nic D just tunes. He does not do installs. He tunes through CPR or Top Gear in Mesa. I believe Top Gear is doing Seniors install.

No that's not too much to ask for. It can be done!

That's correct, thank you for all you have done and input.

Pay attention all that want accurate real info VS the keyboard warrior experts. Futral group are first class, so is Rhino.

Fly cutting if you have the correct cutter sizes is not that difficult, just be aware of the limits of the pistons your cutting.

Rhino79 · 07-11-2015, 07:54 PM

I could have easily speced a cam to make 450 plus tq, but for this customers goal of a 4 mile commute daily, and racing on the weekend with et and mph being priority I set him up with a setup to drag.

450 tq is harder than u think on most dynos that are accurate, let alone 500 hp. But on stock compression 450 tq is going to be hard in an auto.

Bodywerks · 07-11-2015, 08:12 PM

I totally agree, but I'm ls3 and expecting 11.5:1 or better on 95 octane. Still doable, stock bottom end?

Rhino79 · 07-11-2015, 09:30 PM

Yes. Compression really helps tq, as long as you are not octane limited. Ls3 stick car 500/450 is very doable.

Rhino, What did you end up with for ptv clearance?

Rhino79 · 07-13-2015, 12:54 PM

Basically 0 on the intake, so I flycut .050" Exhaust had plenty with the factory valve relief

Thanks for the info. Trying to determine how close a 248 ex lobe with a lsa of 113 is going to be on a LS3. Got any idea? I will get a shorter ex lobe rather than flycutting in this case. I know all lobes are gonna be slightly different. Killer results and ET's out of your shop btw.

djpelosi · 07-13-2015, 02:16 PM

So, with a cam this big... what exactly would need to be done to the heads/pistons to make it safe on a stock LS3? I see you said flycut .50" but anything else?

Fast6.3 · 07-13-2015, 02:20 PM

Ryan can you post a dyno sheet of your llsr and this one with cam specs i think i like yours better than this one for what im planning thanks
