For now I'm going to just say 500+ @ the crank

Isn't this the truck I saw a video of a while back runnin' a Lightning at the track?

At the end of the race a kid asks, "Who won?". The father replies, "Chevy".

Sounds pretty smooth on that 115lsa and idle of 850rpms. Ya I heard it fall just slightly after reving to find idle. Really it didn't sound like it was strugling too badly at all though. Test your tuning skills and bring that idle down to 675rpms with no hunt

Nice work. Oh ya, so what do you like better now the S R T 10 or the Silverado?

That thing sounds GREAT! It "sounds" really responsive off idle...even with those little short revs you were giving it. Keep us posted.

That was my friend's truck. I was doing the filming. Mine is red with black stripes. I can't even buy a race with a Lightning...but I'm looking

I get asked that question all the time. I'm a die-hard Chevy fan and bleed Chevy orange but Dodge did a nice job with the S R T 10. It just needs to lose some weight, it's almost 1000lbs. heavier than a Chevy. I use it for a daily driver and it's great. Massive torque and rowing thru the 6-speed is fun. Low 13's just like it came from the factory on stock tires is not too shabby!

Is the cam size in your sig the one that is in your 408? If so that is a pretty mild cam for a 408.

I have taken the tuning test until my brain hurts Funny thing is after the truck is warmed up and steady state I can unplug the IAC and drive it around and it never hunts. All the IAC does is over correct and causes the problems once it is warmed up. But there is no way in LS1edit to limit the proportion. Or is there?
