...post your times. I am intersted in either going with the LE2/LE3 package or something from Joe Overton.

I am visiting from ls1tech.com and mfba.org to get some more infor before I purchase.

Thanks, Greg

 

I wondering this too i am looking at the Le2 heads with the Le3 cam or a gm847 cam? Any ideas on this set up? Is it streetable?

 

C'mon guys!!! People have to have this setup somewhere here in the contry! Help a fellow fbody owner out.

 

i have a le2 heads and a 847

 

What are your times?

 

Please post your times with the setup. This is supposed to be an informative site.

 

LE setups are !!

i would give you some times but i wouldnt do LE any justice with their setups. ive been having some problems with my comp R lifters atm and previously had a problem getting my intake to seal after all the machine work and thinner head gaskets. plus i gotta get mine tune tweaked once i get the motor straight.

do a search. i'm sure you'll find some good info on these setups and what kind of power you can make out of them.

 

Well i had the 847 cam with ported heads from a company in the chicagoland area in my 95 Z and i ran a best of 11.3@118 with a 1.7 60ft at GLD..... since then the motor & tranny was sold the car was returned back to stock and given to a family member.

 

It's a very informative site. You might try searching for LE2 or LE3. Be prepared to do a lot of reading.

FWIW, jumping in and pushing for general info like "times" and complaining when folks don't drop everything to answer you may not be the best way to inspire the old heads here.

You might also read Lloyd Elliott's info on his LE packages.

Or you could flip the "Lloyd-Joe O" coin. No comment on which side is heads and which is tails.

 

It is an informative site if you know how to use it. Hp has nothing to do with times i have seen 345rwhp cars go high 11s and i have seen 450rwhp cars go high 12s use the search feature of this informative site and you will learn alot. In street form i have hit high 11s and can get about 20mpg on the highway. But i also put 506rwtq .

Search Please before you come and talk about the site and me..

 

Are you serious? I have been on 'The Formula Source', 'MFBA.org', 'LS1Tech.com' looking for information on these two setups. I have not found enough from the before mentioned sites and was directed to this site as having a lot of users with both setups. That is all that I came here to do. I first have used the search function before signing up and posting, but like was mentioned, tons and tons of stuff to read. I have found a wealth of information on the two subjects, but nothing that was specific to my question in one thread. Numbers, times, etc. were spread throughout 400+ threads when searched for the terms 'LE' 'LE2' 'LE3' 'Lloyd' 'Elliot' 'Joe Overton' and the like. I was in the hopes of posting this thread, that it would make it much easier for me receive the kind of information that I am in search of, as I am assuming others are as well.

So as you can see, I have searched before I came on to this site and talked smack about the site and you. I have came to the conclusion that just because someone is new to a tech site such as this one, everyone likes to beat on the newbie for not using the search function. I see it a lot on ls1tech.com and in this post as well.

Also, a lot of people will say that they have run 11's but forget to mention that they have a 383 with forged internals etc. I am looking for a stock LT1 with one of the packages.

I may have taken it to far to say that this is supposed to be an informative site, and that is true. So help out a fellow member with the same interests.

OK, tell us what you plan to run.

Trans? stall if A4?
Axle ratio?
tires?
weight with driver?
CAI?
1-3/4 LT's?
no cats?
Rest of exhaust system, especially size and muffler(s)
injectors?
58 mm TB?
where? sealevel? Denver?
Whose tune?
Can you drive? There's 5/10 or more in the driver.


It's the system that counts. There's no real way to give you a reasonable answer without the data. Do you buy that?

If you just want an easy rectal extraction answer without data, try from 14.00 @ 100 to 11.5 @ 125. OK?

Suggestion: chill just a tad. It will help.

 

ah ha! you cant use the search feature unless you are a member!!... i dont think anyways. ...

either way. why are you looking for times? i can tell you that the setups are fast and put out good power. i'm sure that from of the research that you have done, that you have at least come to that conclusion. i'm sure that by going to www.eportworks.com that you have an idea of what kind of power LE setups make. so my point being, that regardless of horsepower numbers, your still not going to have a relevant time slip for an LE/JO setup due to the thousands of variables in play during track runs. you may have one guy that ran low 11's with a specific setup. you may have another guy with a similar built engine that runs high 12's. vehicle weight, gears, suspension, tuning, weather, tracks, traction, elevation, etc. (need i go on?), are just a few of the variables at play when your considering track times. decide for yourself what kind of power your looking for. talk to the guys that you are considering making purchases from and inquire about their setups and see if they compare to your goals.

if you are dead set on a track time, i ran an 8.4@90mph w/ a 2.20 60' in the 1/8th. thats the only run i got in before my old edelbrock torque arm broke (stay away from those, btw). i dont think that track time credits LE or my setup. I had a leaking intake manifold that was causing the engine to run rich (long story), bald street tires, humid florida weather, maxed out KR due to an exhaust leak (all of this stuff which has been fixed, but now dealing with Comp R's), a base tune, and a lot of other little bugs that i have been working out since the motors completion. not to mention vehicle weight (no reduction in weight, whatsoever). and i also couldnt even tell you anything specific about the weather that night (which i believe was in may or june of this year).

anything else i can help you with?

btw- j/k about the search feature statement above. you really cant use it till your a member, but its not like i dont believe that you didnt do a search. just poking fun.

 

EXACTLY the point i'm trying to make. we're not trying to turn you away from the site, but more or less trying to get you to learn something here. you start asking for track time w/ a head and cam combo but arent asking for further details. without all the variables in play, you might turn your head away from a good setup due to someone else having a bad run on a given night. lots of good information out there. and i'm sure if you need help setting something up, we'll be here to help out best we can.

 

God bless this web site I know every bolt and part to these car thanks to this site.
P.s. LE2 is great for a stock 350... dont spin it too high though. The LE3 Personal opinion, belongs in a stroker motor. To be able to spin 7000, to reep the benifits.
