My LX will be done tomorrow with the addition of a Thumper/T-Moss combo..The guy who was gonna do it had a dyno,but wouldnt put them on because he thought I just bought them off the internet,and said he got burned to many times with internet heads,I tried to tell him there provin heads but he didnt want to hear it So dyno #'s will have to wait a little bit..But Im going to the track Friday night so at least I'LL have some 1/4 mile times.I also added 1.7 FMS roller rockers. I will get some dyno #'s in August!!,Oh yeah,I had a problem with bogging down off the line with my hoosiers(my 13.8 was with Nitto's) I put some Strange 10 way adjustable shocks and struts on.Hopefully the added HP and suspension will cure my bogging!!

Why would he get burned on the dyno??? Did you mean a flowbench, I'm confused on that. Are you sure this guy knows what he's doing???

You'll see some nice gains for sure, I did.

He's assembling the motor, bt he is afraid to dyno.....sounds like a cop out to me.

I surely wouldn't even assembly something if I have doubts about the parts. If I get parts that are used I charge to fully inspect them before I put them on a motor, especially heads, etc...

Nah he's not afraid to dyno it,you hit the nail rite on the head,he wants to run thru the heads at his machine shop to make sure there ok..The guy installing them now was in the hospital this week and my car wont be ready till Saturday!! He's actually a real good guy so Im not gonna cry about it.

I gained 40 hp and 45 foot pounds RWHP by doing the Thumper TMOSS combo. Every cylinder is at 70psi which sucks goat balls, and the dyno guys said that I am losing about 30 hp or so. Definately worth it.
