I just want to let every one know about a shop that saved the day. As a lot of you know I chased a bunch of mechanical gremlins last year. Took the motor out 3 times and the trans out 10 times. ( That is another post I will put up once I finished talking with the parts suppler over the warranty )
I had one last problem I could not solve. The motor lost 10 lb of oil presser under load and would be fine when not under load at any RPM. It acted like bad main bearings or the block was flexing.
Carmine from PERFORMANCE MOTORSPORTS invited me down to trouble shoot the car on their incredible all wheel Dyno. ( Capable of handling 2000HP and 200 MPH ) They were able to diagnose and prove out the problem was in the transfer block that allowed me to hook the oil cooler to the LS1 factory bypass ports.
They ported the bock on site in the Machine shop and I am back in business. It would have been very hard to solve this problem with out their knowledge and chaise Dyno.

Just a little shop info

It is a family business with 3 generations of racers, engine builders and fabricators.
They are a one stop Performance facility
They have both a engine and chaise Dyno
They are the home of NASA North East http://www.nasane.com/

I was so impressed with how well and helpful they were.
If you are in the Smithtown area of Long Island I would recommend stopping out and taking a tour of the shop. If nothing else you will see some cool rides. Randy
