Now THAT is what I call a beautiful tune. Enjoy....who ever the owner is.

I saw this car the other day when it was getting broken in.... that is one piece of work...

Can I get a "354GT-TT" emblem? ...'cause, you know, I have a 0.020" overbore.... LOL

I guess Sam has a really big screen and displaying the a/f isn't a problem. That a/f plot is so smooth!

That's gotta be the smoothest FI dyno graph I've ever seen!

Congrats! Very nice install and numbers...

Just wondering why it seems a bit laggy - maybe it's just the chart, but it looks like a full ~2k worth of useable rmps...? I'm sure I'm just missing something - regardless, great job Sam.

who said the coolers don't benefit the car? does the blue coating dissipate the heat better?

Very nice build. Great job as always.

The more dyno graphs I see like that is defiantly going to make me fork out the bucks for a VPro. Finally got the chance to ride in one the other day and all I can say is WOW. Makes my Utec feel even worse.

You guys are doing a lot of custom high end build products and this car seems to showcase them all. Got any more specs on those head studs? What's the compression on the 4.2l stroker and those pistons? More info on radiator shroud?
Taurran,

These GTM 14MM heads are designed to combat he problem of head lift issues in a high-horse power street car. If you noticed they taper down after the threaded portion, this was all done intentionally for specific reasons.... We have had GREAT success with these studs.

The pistons are 8.5:1 compression as are all our F/I builds unless specifically requested to be different by the customer. This coating we used is a little different that your standard cermaic coating, it is designed to last much longer and not wear off as easily. Its actually not suppose to wear off at all.

The GTM Radiator shroud is avaiable in Polished, Anodized Black or Blue. We haven't had a chance to release it yet. It could also be purchased as a package with 14" SPAL fans.

Hope this helps,

-George

Since this is a automatic we start the dyno run later in the RPM band so the converter is locked.

This car is anything but lagging. Makes 7 psi at partial throttle!

Thanks for the compliments Phil!

Thanks for the info. It all looks absolutely top notch. I'm interested in seeing pricing on that shroud...


Oh, yes, and whoever else quotes the original post deserves a BAN!!!

(seriously, can a mod edit that out)
