Like I said taking it to Texas speed On monday, So MOD NO NEED TO MOVE THIS ITS NOT HYPOTHETICAL GUESS WHAT IT WILL DO POST. That leaves 3 days to take your best shot at what ya think it will put down.
I will have the numbers monday night,,,, If It dont blow up.

im guessin 420-430. im surprised TSP might be open considering monday is a holiday.

I am newbie to LS world but I would guess 470hp. Also thinking of gettin mine tuned at Texas Speed. What does a tune there cost?

410-420hp, 370-380tq.

Monday is a holiday?

mondays not a holiday,

To be honest I will be dissapointed if the car doesnt make at least 440

I say, 436. That 9" is gonna rob some power.

With no ac and those heads/cam I don't see why you won't make 440. Good luck and I like your sig quote. :thumb:

Im gonna say ~450 rwhp and ~380 ft-lbs. That's a pretty crazy looking cam.... did you spec it? What is the Centerline and LSA on this.

No, had it specced by Geoff Skinner of Engine Power systems, The centerline is 110
the LSA is114

designed it with nitrous in mind.

Any specific reason you're driving all the way to Lubbock when you have about 5-10 ls1 builders/tuners/dyno shops right near you in the DFW area??

On topic - I'll guess in the 430rwhp range seeing how you're running a 9" and it's a 98.

I had my car first tuned by TSP....good luck

Monday is a federal holiday, Columbus day. TSP charges ~$400, they do a great job.

If its a Dyno Jet and they use SAE for the numbers, I'd guess:

- 425 RWHP and 401RWTQ

430, b/c of the driveline its gotta go through. definitely gonna haul some ass though.

Time for some numbers...:D

Allright Fellas, As promised here are the results, I want to thank Jason and the guys at TSP for all their help, and I am very pleased with the car, It screams, and I cant wait to take it to the track. I did not spray the car because my window switch was not coming on, I did not want to risk it, but after looking at the numbers you can guess what it will be on the spray.
also, I hauled all the way to Lubbock because I got my parts at TSP, and plenty of Tech support and advice, they were great to me, So I return it by supporting them.. Thanks again guys, Now lets see what she does on the track...Also want to thank Geoff Skinner OF EPS for working with me and speccing this cam for my setup..Sorry I have to put a link to click on to see the dyno sheet but I dont know how to put a picture in the post itself. Would love to know how. But the dyno sheet is attatched.
Max HP was 463.40 Tq was 428.18

Curious about the SAE 1.11 at 60F, does the humidity/pressure affect the correction factor that much?

Curious about the SAE 1.11 at 60F, does the humidity/pressure affect the correction factor that much?

Pressure certainly does. As I found out recently, lots of Texas is actually at a pretty high altitude (around 3000), and the DJ weather station takes that absolute number into equation, and not the corrected pressure you'll see on the Weather Channel.

Thats some killer torque, btw. :nod:

Those are some awesome numbers, congratz!

Great numbers! What mods were on the car prior? Any before numbers?

Very impressive numbers, congrats.

No before numbers, I ran it with the stock engine, and an LS6 intake, a Frost tune, Headers, volant cai, and exhaust before all the work, I ran the car on a 100 shot on the zex box, (which was probably more like 70) When I ran this setup the best I got was a 7.76 with a 1.73 60ft at 92 mph, pulling the front tires about 2 inches, and then spinning, fought traction problems, bought new parts, and we will see how they work on the new combo.

I took the car in and it baselined at 450 Hp on the mail order tune I got right after the swap, Jason at TSP made some changes, and after bout 4 pulls got another 13 HP out of it. TO me that says alot about the accuracy of their mail order tune. Very close to perfect.

WOW Man congrats awesome numbers.

Great work TSP.

That is some kicking ass numbers for a setup that is not showing top $$$ parts. Well thought combo!

impressive, cam worked out pretty well

I was almost there.... WAY off on the torque though. LOL.

I bet that bitch screams making almost 430 ft-lbs. with a curve like that. Congrats nice numbers.... cant wait to see what it does at the track... on the spray!!!

Geoff's cams continue to impress me. Great job to Geoff and TSP!

Nice!!

really impressive numbers!! Nice Torque curve and that horsepower just stays about 450

That is sick power w/ 5.3L heads through a 9". Congrats.

WOW, good numbers.

Almost sounds too good to be true, those heads must be tweaked a lot.

Whats the max timing and was race gas used?

You should hit mid to low 11's with that combo!

Thanks to everyone on the compliments, the car pulls like a beast, and scares kids too,, I am very happy with it.

-I had premium 92 octane in the tank that came from the station on the corner.
-The heads are as TSP does them, CNC ported, no hand blending. PRC stage 2.5 5.3 heads, they were milled to 59cc.
-To be honest, I never asked about the timing, I am never going to mess with it, I dont have the software or the know-how to do that, Put a wrench in my hands and I can make magic, but let me mess with the computer and the magic smoke will come out of it:D I have the Lingenfelter launch box on the car, so when I spray it, I can pull whatever amount of timing I want to thru the box, to be safe.
I am gonna run it here real soon, I am hoping for mid to low 11s on the motor and 10s on the spray, we will see. If I can get it to hook.
vid of the pull gotta hit the play button on bottom left

video is working

those heads are def great bang for the buck! nice numbers/combo,and congrats!

Great results!!!

Very nice. Are you gonna the current setup? Definitely let us know how it does at the track!

I'm kind of surprised. I'd love to see if my 377 hp jumps up when dyno'd on a TSP dyno. lol Congrats to the OP. Sounds like a fun budget setup.

Their dyno is a dynojet, When I took the car in, Jason guessed it would probably make around 430-440 because of the big split cam, but the cam works perfect in the car, and makes crazy power. Surprised everyone, I was hoping for 440 myself, The car really is a beast. Couldnt be happier with it.
I wont lie to anyone, the cost for all of it was not cheap, There is so much more money involved with a H/C swap than the purchase of the heads and cam. To do it right there are a ton of other parts required, stuff you expect and stuff you dont, and none of it was cheap, I saved some coin because I bought parts off of other members, and I did all the work myself, (except the tuning)I am extremely happy with the power I am getting out of these Heads, I paid half the price of the AFR's or TF's because I couldnt afford those heads. These work great
Yes I am going to run it real soon, waiting on my M&H's to get here, I will have them mounted up on my convos and I will be ready to roll. I will post what I run when I do.
I will try to get the suspension dialed in, and when settled I will turn the spray loose on it and see what she does.

great numbers what was the spec on the cam.

nice numbers
