It is. There are some pics and vids of it on the BMR webpage as it uses a lot of off the shelf BMR parts.

This is the same motor he had in his old dope set up that went 9.38@149, just different pistons and cam.

Try 8400 and 23psi. Changed gears so we wouldn't have to spin it as high, but then the bearings went out. Probably from when the first turbo went out at thunder and put metal through the motor. New motor in the works, this car WILL run 7's next season. Any LS1's scared yet?? 2005 is going to be a very interesting year for LT1's and LS1's.

Later,
Chuck
