Push rods are way down to 7.300" and the builder only goes down to 7.375".....so the time schedule is messed up.

Fortunately, by doing the cam conversion part list kit through Kip at Cam Motion, there's one contact person to sort everything out. Kip was saying that there was another new LS3 head that wouldn't take the T&D shaft mounted rockers, ahhh, progress.

I was wondering where your dyno report went...
I just got my heads from Texas speed and it's not set up to take ANYTHING but stock rockers, as the rocker pedestals are now machined in to the casting and not removable, So I guess that makes the rocker decision for me, as I was looking at Yella Terra or crane rockers as an option given my intake lift(.654). Yes, they can and have been machined to take all sorts of rockers, but I don't want to go there for this build. If I have to do any machining, it'll be fore shaft mounted rockers and a LLSR setup(maybe in a year or two...).

Made big power on Straightline Dyno, 500rwhp maybe. If I remember his SN I'll see if I can find the dyno sheet.

514 rwhp on loaded Dyno was last Dyno. Getting ready for next round. Agp intercooler dual fuel pumps a bap and id1000's should hopefully get me a little better

Nice power!have you been to the track with it?

Pro Stock John · 08-21-2015, 11:28 AM

I trapped 124 yesterday. Let's see that 551rwhp car hit the track and see what it traps. I make 463rhwp on a load dyno. Might be higher since I went to 1 7/8 and full 3.0 exhaust.

Bo White · 08-21-2015, 05:05 PM

Congrats PSJ. I think things will come together soon for that perfect pass when you get it dialed in.

Pro Stock John · 08-21-2015, 10:45 PM
