Dyno results

I think this is the highest Y-body LTx stock heads dyno I've seen.

Re: Dyno results

Whatever it costs its impressive...but for it really to be impressive he needs to hit the track and lay down some numbers...I've seen cars with high dyno numbers not run the numbers at the track...To me a good track ET and MPH is way more impressive than good dyno numbers....

Re: Dyno results

Actually, I think Denny McClain has him beat with 474rwhp SAE. TFS heads and a LT4 intake.

"Running the number" Now last time I checked that means you really want to make the car do that.... some guys just want a really strong street car. OTOH some guys start off at 11.91 at 112.5 and two years later run 10.88 @ 122.8. Don't we all wish it happened overnight.

Great point Real world R&D really pays off when it comes to grinding cams. So keep your chin up, that means you should have an LT1 in the tens within 2 years.

OTOH here is a link that bret is referring to

Here is the next pass that I made
http://web.camaross.com/forums/showthread.php?t=237133
Full street car that I drove around 50 miles to work every day. BTW, that was with the original LE1 cam ground by Joe O. I believe Clint went 11.6 with the same cam and LE heads. Has anyone even been that quick with any of the LT1 cams that you have ground?

Re: Dyno results

If you honestly think that gains with cams are developed on the drag strip then you need to send me a bag of that stuff Joe has you smokin. Then again i've tried to get into many a discussion with Joe on here about the specifics and details of the valvetrain and get nothing but accusations of being paid off by Comp and name calling.

Funny I go off an use you as a good example of hard work (and aftermarket ECU) and you turn into a ***** again.... figures. Then again I said it so it had to be an attack against you because you know how much I hate Joe O... lol, give me a break like a give a rats ***. Drama Queen.

You crack me up either way.... you take a year to gain .5 and it's a big deal.

Your 113-122mph is not that hard to do, I have guys call me up all the time about 119-130mph hyd roller cars, thanking me for my help. I don't have 3 cars that I brag about every time this comes up though lol.

Now the best humor I have had in a few days comes again at your expense James...

To preface....

Pick the guy with the lowest ET. Hmm, never known a cam/head package to cut a low 60' time or setup a car to run good times. Now if you could convince Joe O. to pick a cam, port the heads, setup the car and drive it, I bet you'd have a low ET machine.

Yeah, a search will get you in the thick of it.

Pretty good post imho. The best part is you didn't get it at all....

I'd almost take comment of Mindgames as a bust on Joe. I mean really who on here can call the guy out? Certainly not a guy running mid 9's on a street F-Body that he drives to the track.... but then again I know Mindgame pretty well and I doubt that's what he's doing here, he only likes intelligent arguements. I think it's really just a comment on the advertisements misuse of the consumers ignorance.

Why don't guys in here get reffered to Billingsley or Madman when it come to asking about times? Lord knows that the "magical" cams Joe gets from Bullet aren't the reason for the 60 ft times.

Oh and BTW the Real Story about James Eddy can be summed up in his own words.....

PS- this is not an unpaid advertisement

Last line of that post gives you and your leg humping away in a bad manner. If it wasn't for this and you bad attitude I would bet you could be half bareable as a human being.

Re: Dyno results

Sorry, couldn't find a monkey smiley on here All of this goes back to your repeated claims of improved power and midrange TQ increases with less duration. Have never seen anything at the track to back it up. Don't worry though, 1 year, 11 months, and 29 days. Then you will be there. As far as a car that Joe built and drives, he has one, it ran 9.34 last time out on motor.

Where are all of these high performance motors that you have built. Do they have real #s? Or do they just exist in the Matrix as well The only one that I am familiar with is the one that apparently you were unable to complete properly in some type of engine building competition.

A year is pretty short for a guy that works 58 hours a week and does all of his work when he gets a chance in his driveway You must understand that because I've seen where you claim to be working 70 or 80 hours a week. With the 30 or so hours a week you spend on the internet, I gotta give you mad props Aren't you like 26 or 27 years old? Take it easy whippersnapper, or those 100 hour weeks will really catch up to you.

You have one thing wrong though, I did get it. I just picked out the only true statement in his post. It seems that everyone has a leghumper or two You two are a trip. Joe ground the cam and tunes the car. I had the heads ported, picked the tranny, rear end, tires, driveshaft, chose gen 7, did the susp work, rollbar, and installed almost everything myself in my driveway I even drive the car Joe has made 2 passes in the vehicle due to me asking him so that he could get the best imput for tuning. All of my posted times were with me driving.

Re: Dyno results

I still wanna know how much you get paid to be a post hound for him? At least you admit that your doing the advertising now. I don't pay people, but I would like to know the cost structure just for my own personal knowledge.

Best comment I have heard about you yet though....

"2 years, 3 cams, two trannies, 2 converters, DFI and tons of tuning and he gain a full second. lol"

That's some pretty expensive cam R&D to me. Why couldn't ya just get it right the first time?

Dammit James, why do you have to go off and steal this guys thread again. You just need to start a "Here is my thread to talk **** about Bret again so I can keep my end of the contract with Joe" thread.

I believe the thread was screwed up when you posted this. Don't be stupid.Sorry, maybe you just can't help it. I just commented that the car will probably be hauling ***, why did you take it personally. YOU even pulled two quotes from 2 different threads in here

Joe gives me a banana for each post I make I have paid for every part that I have ever purchased from Joe. I don't get anything except for the enjoyment of getting your panties in a bunch.

To get back on track, does the guy plan on running the car before the end of the season?

Was Denny on a hydraulic or solid cam for that #? I've read some about Denny's car and its changes for along time and he has a nice ride.

For the longtime SC'd members Grimes built Les's 383 YS trim motor.

Also dyno #s nor track times are the end all be all. I could care less about ETs since I'm more concerned about running track events and my suspension will never be setup for 60' times. I'm more concerned about the tq curve. Everyone has their own goals.

Hell yeah, I'd be helping him go faster The internet does seem to bring out the less than civil side of people, myself included.

Re: Dyno results

Banana per post.... lol I like that one!

How you gonna help me go faster? You a Skip Barber instructor now? The racing that I do when I go is around corners.

You guys know we just do this for the drama... gotta compete with all those reality shows somehow.

Lamar,

Denny's car is running a hyd roller, Morel's to be exact. He had a ton of problems with solid rollers and decided he didn't want to do that again. 472rwhp and 415rwTQ, BTW that was with LE TFS heads.

I agree.... if I was just concerned with drag motors I wouldn't have some really good customers who just want a street motor or a motor they use for autoX or road racing. Making HP and AVERAGE TQ is what my main concern is in reality.
