I had the le3 355 that I hit with a 200 shot and it wasn't anywhere near 150mph.
mines a LOT more radical than a LE3 setup, i'll PM ya the specs

couple questions on some things I noticed. How hard will it be to change the pass side o2 sensor with the o2 bung facing that way??? And I'm not talking about for people with arms the size of a two year old either. Also plug access looks pretty good on the pass side, but looks like half a nightmare on the driver side. How bad is it really? And as far as the o2 sensors are should there be one on each log? Or is the way its set up now one on the crossover and one on the dp work?

Believe it or not I think the O2 is removeable with crossover still attached. Two clamps drop the crossover though to get at the O2 sensor.

The driver's side plug access is easy from the bottom... even easier when you have a tubular K.

The TTi street kit (this kit is based off that design, but made better) uses a bung on the pass. side and one on the DP. You could have a bung on the driver's side, but its still going to see both banks due to the pass. side exhaust passing thru the driver's log. There is alos an extra bung (3rd bung) on the DP for Justin's WB O2 sensor.

BTW, Justin put this kit on in one night.

It might be a good time to rethink the tq converter since the tranny will be out.

I thought about it, but will probably keep it a little longer.

Here is a few of the carnage pics, already found another th400 I think, going to call on it in the morning. If so I'll throw it in(it's mildly built, was in a 10 sec chevelle) and then find a new core and build up another, then swap them out later this winter and keep the mild built one as a spare. This should allow me to get it going in a few days.

Justin called me from the track... sweet results! I'll post them up when he gives me the OK. I think you will all be surprised when I post the results, especially since he is running 6psi with STOCK heads/cam/intake/TB. Just an auto LT1 with some boost.
