I decided to give them a google and see what they are all about over there. I was searching for lsj parts and....
Im not feelin the lsj discrimination haha

 

Not yet, but soon! Ran into a couple snags, like any build but....install of motor will start tomorrow, should have it back by friday, then we will dyno and whatnot next week. It is stock manifold, will bolt right up. There are only a couple of minor changes that will need to be made, but nothing serious!

 

HAHA they are able to work on just about any car. If you remember Brags from Chicago. Well he had the LS Turbo, well they did pretty much all of that. They are big into the LNF platform, both Kappa and Delta. Also a big SRT-4 shop...but honestly they do everything. Today there was a SRT-8 Jeep and last week was a C55 AMG

 

Matt, I forgot to ask you (maybe I did but forgot your answer LOL): are your blocks girdled like ZZPs? Or maybe something similar?

 

its the same principle but we do our own version for the customers that want it. we do work on everything from lsx, to ecotecs, mercedes bmw and so forth. we do it all.

 

So eventually on the 2.4 setup, if I also want, let's say, the sleeves, you can do it?

 

anything can be done. sleeving will hold the most power no questions asked but it also requires deep pockets. its not a cheap process by any means.

 

I know, just curiosity

 

tis a beautiful engine!

 

I don't think modern engines can be made beautiful, but it does look clean. Congrats!

 

So I guess you put the car on the road?

 

Yup i dont wanna release too many details but he got it a week or so ago. we went for a quick cruise. couldn't do any pulls yet, he's going to the shop tomorrow to tune/dyno.

i will say this though: it runs like a champ.

 

good to know

 

Anything can be....look at my previous engine bay

 

Yes everything is done! Adam (riceburner) came out to my house yesterday for some headlight help, he was able to get a sneak peek! Matt (Omiotek) and Dave from Performance Autowerks are two of the best dudes I have ever met. They have went above and beyond to make this build everything I wanted and more. We are getting the car on the dyno and tuning tomorrow so there will be details and info ready for everyone to see prolly friday or saturday!

 

Hell yeah in for some numbas

 

There's just too much crap attached to modern engines. The only way to make them look good is to cover them up.

 

ill have to agree. especially in the lnf - lsj, the lnf has too many wires and stuff to make it look good unless you do some SERIOUS tucking. but this engine, being brand new and painted nicely, looks pretty good i thought

 

the engine isnt the problem... its the rest of the crap on the side.

 

it all depends on the company. callies rods the i beam is stronger than h beams. thats ass backwards from most companies

 

and tucking wires is not that hard guys. basically just cant be color blind, impatient, or a tard

 

That does look great, Matt, but I wish I had a pic of my old 1968 Camaro engine compartment. That **** was sweet.

 

So did this thing blow up on the dyno or are we getting some numbers?!

 

Won't have graphs up for a few days but the car put down good power. We were at 411/425 on 26#'s with 14-15* timing. This was on 93 on performance Autwerks mustang dyno

 

A built engine with the WR-3 turbo? I'm putting those numbers down just with their 535hp kit.
