I haven't gotten to use them yet, But its good to know now that we have another "respectable" service to add to the list.

Everyone Iv'e talked to about Lloyd and Brett have nothing but good things to say about them and thier work, It appears the same can be said for Victory.

Keep up the good work guys.

 

 

Eric is a stand up guy from what I can tell. They are building me a Forged 9:1 compression 383 for my new project, Lloyd did the AFR heads, and I am doing the custom D1SC procharger setup. From what I have witnessed Victory's shortblock should handle it no problem. Shooting for 600RWHP

 

do they have a dyno there?

 

I hope VRE stays around for a long time.

All of the idle issues and related problems before were cause by a rod hitting the oil pan?

 

No upon initial install of the engine, the installers bounced the engine off of something on the way into the car and caved in the oil pan. Thus pushing it up towards the rods. I full well knew that it cleared on the stand, but wanting to be sure I paid for its removal and had it sent back and went through it top to bottom.

New pan, new mechanic, no problems!!

 

Yea, I put 477 miles on it!! Almost there!! I have to admit, at 400... I have done a full WOT pulls... hahaha But nothing crazy. Still babying it, just wanted to feel what kind of thunder it's got. It's pretty crazy!! haha

I know the thing is running like crap too... I know there is more left in her. I have a nice smoke stream coming out the tailpipes that wreaks of gas and makes your eyes burn... oh how sweet it is... until something breaks. haha

 

That's great to hear. Now I know where I will be looking when shortblock time comes.

 

Get that thing tuned before you wash the rings !

 

544 miles on the baby!!

I raced a Intake and exhaust (2 1/2 with cats) SRT4... no boost controller hahahaha insane. I had it like I never thought I would. He hit it first... then I hit it right away. INSTANTLY jumped out in front and pulled away like it never even touched the gas. I know I should win yada yada yada... but I have never been in a car this fast or even driven one so this is a brand new experience. Just fun to know that it's going to take A LOT for one to beat me.

 

Alot huh?

That should just about do it.

 

I meant SRT4... but I got something for ya Chris. haha

 

VRE guys are top notch. Chris, who did your tuning?

 

Might be time to plumb that fogger Chris, and put that hairdryer back in the salon where it belongs j/k
