Default Big thanks to Joe at Fordspeed!

Finally got around to getting all the parts in my room onto my car with the tremendous help from fordspeed.

Still a few kinks to work out (running pretty hot) and a dyno tune, but I'm very happy with the car .. especially how it sounds.

We'll know soon enough.

Shouldn't be bad, enough to fight off the stock ls1's anyway.

What did you end up getting, I read a couple of posts where you were back and forth on some things? Did you get your tranny worked out?

Tranny is still whinning like a mofo.

Except for a few minor differences like the maf and throttle body is the exact same setup that was on Joe's street warrior car.

Edelbrock performer rpm intake (ported), gt40p heads (milled, ported) and a comp cam custom grind (.499/.499 236/24, 76mm maf, 65mm tb, 30# injectors.

Sure thing once I get it tuned and take care of the cooling problems which shouldn't be more than a couple days hopefully.

The car has come a long way in the power department.

Nothing phenominal ... but it should be right at or over 300rwhp. Not bad for stock displacement and some gt40p heads.

The GT-40p's need specific headers don't they? Are the the same heads on V8 Explorers?

By the way Vince, did you pick a tranny yet?
