are you guys with these LE2 heads and cam setups running a stock clutch???
(for the M6'ers)
Spec 3+ here. It worked great when rather new but has softened up a bit recently. Wont grab 3rd gear anymore. Waiting for the Monster clutches to come out.
Forgive me if this is posted somewhere, I didn't read everything. Are these numbers at the rear wheels, or just the motor?
THanks

ACHotrod: I have always envied your car, watched vid's a while back where she's just lopin away at idle. Now I have that too! To answer your question, no I dont have any track #'s, and may not for the season. I never really had any track ambitions, was just looking to build a street pounder. It may see a little track time next spring once the 10 bolt is beefed up.
Nighttrain66: Im so extremely pleased with not just the awesome job you did on my heads, intake and on the bad ass cam. Your customer service and personality are second to none, and I hope I can get to the shootout one of these years to put a face to the name. Thanks again for everything ( especialy the valvetrain installation help at 6pm on a friday!)
What burns me up about people trashing Lloyd is that what they dont realize all his competitors are shops. Shops with multiple techs doing work, a guy to answer the phone, a guy who's the brains of the operation, and probably a few others floating around. Lloyd is one guy, who supports himself, his hobby, and his family by making our cars fast as shit for a very reasonable price, and high level of quality. Not to say other places dont do good work, they do, but they do it with a lot of help.
Anyways, once I get the tuner, I'll head back up to see Dave @ KDR speed center to get some new SAE corrected numbers. BTW folks, these numbers are through the stock M-6 gears whatever they are, not 4.10's.
Thanks!! I would love to see some track times, but it must be a beast on the street as well.
I 100% agree with your comments towards Lloyd!! He has been amazing every step of the way when building my car. Takes calls and returns calls at 9pm and on sundays and truley helps wether its his parts or not. I couldnt say enough great things about him.
Plus he parties like a rock star and is fun to hang with.

Thats a timing thing I got to get situated. Vince has a tuner on the way.
Very nice results. I have to agree with all the positive comments about Lloyd. He goes the extra mile with any questions or concerns. Hell, years ago he called me late on a Sunday after I had posted a question on another forum. He already had my phone # after I had called about his head porting, and we must have talked for over a 1/2 hr. on his dime. You don't get that kind of service and help from to many people nowadays.

Nice numbers! I second the information on Lloyd Elliott. Top notch guy. So did the 58mm TB make the pass and what did you do about the short block?
-Dustin-
Hi Dustin, yes I used your TB to achieve these #'s, as my monoblade hasnt arrived yet. My buddies father in law owns an auto auction and had a 96 formula rotting in the back lot. Used that as the doner until I build a new block over the winter.
