Yes, I'm not dropping thousands all for show. With Justin from BCS, Tracy Lewis, and Chris, James and Jake from JE Import Performance you should see a 9 second LFX here before the end of 2017 or we will break something trying.

Well in addition to working with Justin, I am now working with Tracy Lewis to finish this build and show what the LFX is capable of. Tracy is not only providing his knowledge and experience but also the following, a new 6L50E transmission, RX Performance/Overkill 6L50E custom 4000 stall, Tracy Lewis Catch Can Signature Kit as well as fabricating door panels and a drag wing. This list will continue.

Do you even read threads before asking silly questions?From only 5 post behind yours-
"Inferno on her diet, getting ready to hit the strip" djcolopi
He has so much into this ride and always seems to add to the ever growing list. Why do you care if he runs anyway did you want to try and set up a race, or just bagging on his mod?
If 9's are possible this might be the v6 for it.
GL and keep up the awesome work. IMO Inferno definitely belongs in an elite class and is on its way to valedictorian.

Thanks guys! hopefully this part of the build does not take as long as I expect, especially since we are just dropping in a new 6L50E with the RX Performance/Overkill 6L50E 4000 stall

I updated the google doc; however, I will break down the big stuff here;

Remove/Reinstall Longblock; LFX (26hr) 2340.00
Engine Tear Down, Clean, Flush, Blueprint, Balance 1400.00
Bore, Hone, Clean Block 500.00
Multiange Valve Job, Resurface Cylinder Heads 500.00
Main and Rod Bearings 235.00
Mount Meth Kit, Wire Meth System, Run Lines, Tune (5hr) 450.00
Street Tuning, Trans Tune for New Drag Stall (3hr) 375.00
Dyno Tuning with HP Tuners (5hr) 950.00
Engine Gasket Kit 300.00
Exhaust Dump (5hr) 450.00

No estimate on installing the new transmission as of this moment and I also plan on removing the front sway bar to help with weight transfer and drop a few pounds off the front.

Parts:
JacFab Forged Rods 649.00
Diamond Forged Pistons - 10.5:1 Ratio 1082.00
AEM V2 Water/Methanol Injection Kit 459.00
V2 Water/Methanol Injection Nozzle & Jet Kit 67.87
Water/Methanol Injection Inline Filter 28.49
V2 Water/Methanol Injection 5 Gallon Tank Kit with Conductive Fluid Level Sensor 150.66
Tracy Lewis Catch Can Signature Kit 499.00
RX Performance/Overkill 6L50E 4000 stall 699.00
New 6L50E sourced from Tracy Lewis

Time to do corn! That thing is a beast. Saw an LFX twins setup at GPI do 732 to the wheels with an addition of a 75 shot...

Was amazed at what they can do...

Yep! Watched them tune/test/tune it for 4 hours. It was fun to watch... Aaron and Ryan were doing the magic. It's not easy tuning the LFX compared to the V8, but they do it!
