stock boost Ls are boring. put a 4 or 6 lbs (that is additional boost if ya didnt know) on there and DAMN a totally different beast. now you are talking 10 psi at 2200 rpms and 15 psi by 3000 rpms. power under the curve is what the L is all about.
as for knowing a heavy truck, i hope you arent talking about your silverado SS lol. i dont consider a truck heavy till you get into the 7200 lbs 3/4 ton duramax trucks or 8000 lbs 1 ton dodge duallys. now THAT is a fat pig!

So no one is interested to hear what the L driver had to say about the race?
I'm assuming this is the same race?

I agree, it all seems like the same story except where 12sec5.3 says
and the L owner said it went like this
Apparently the L's wife looks like a man, or 12sec just got a little confused on who was askin the question.
btw, Todd. Got the check in the mailbox today.
He yells, ''Is that an LS1?'' I simply told him yep. and he says, ''Great job!''
I get the ole lady to ask if it is in fact an LS1 (had a ram air hood with LS1).

Yep, that's the guy. He was yelling but i couldn't make out what he was saying so his wife asked. Man that's cool that you found that.Very observant.
I read a little bit on the forum and he's thinking that i sprayed him. So if you guys post on there let him know i'm n/a. Hopefully he goes to No Problem Raceway soon. I'd like to talk to him.
