putting a new tranny, exhaust, driveshaft, valve covers on mine, went to a C4 setup and i decided to black out my motor somewhat. and pullin my brothers 454 out of his camaro. LME put a bad rod, piston height combo in his motor (along with others) and it burns oil and leaks it into the intake like crazy. soo sending it off to in houston to work it over and make it a nitrous motor. last time we had it on the dyno it made 550/536. last week we put it on the dyno again ( this time with an open cutout and a new, bigger Y pipe.) it should have made 580ish with the cut out open but it made 505. put new plugs in it and closed the cut out and it made 495, thats 55 HP down. so we pulled it out. mine should be done on the weekend. here are some pics.
