I always like to see the in's and outs of this stuff. The tech is great, but it would be cooler to see you at YOE, and if it was with the car...so much better.

... Excellent info, I cant wait to get mine in the garage next week....

Hasn't it been in the garage this entire time??? Or do you mean you got a new motor for yours???

Bingo, although I wont have time to install it until next winter at the earliest.

Andrew, any idea on what you expect the Hp to be? Are you going to dyno it? On the intake assy? ( I'm assuming it came with injectors ( size? ) and rails )

My goal is to make 420-430rwhp and have a broad torque curve. I am not sure if the LS7 cam will get me there, but time will tell. I will have it on the dyno once it is done.

The intake assembly comes with LS7 injectors, which are about 40 lb/hr, and came as you saw in the picture. Intake, throttle body, rails, injectors, map sensor. Excellent value.

Today I got a few more pieces of the puzzle. I was exploring the Keisler website and I looked in the "clutch actuation" section. Their hydraulic kit seemed like exactly what I was looking for. I only got the partial kit that does not include the hydraulic throwout bearing. Keisler is in the market of selling Tremec transmissions, so the TOB is designed to mount on a TKO. I have a Richmond, so I will connect the dots from the MC. Looks like a quality piece and exactly what I need. The MC has a 3/4" bore and a travel of 1.5". That should make just about any hydraulic bearing puke its guts, so I will have to mock everything up and make sure that the bearing is not being over extended.



I also ordered a Quarter Master street throw out bearing.
