Default free dyno time......

Sport Truck Magazine is looking for late model (1999 to current) GM trucks and owners that plan on modifying them in the near future. If you are going to be swapping parts on your ls-based small block but want to verify the results of those new parts, please pm me. I'm looking to run tech articles in the magazine on cam, head, intake tests as well as stroker engine buildups. I can provide free engine or chassis dyno time for any test we deem appropriate for the mag.

The one stipulation is that we'll need before and after dyno tests to verify the results of the tests so if you're intested, please dont rip your motor apart and then email me. I'd like to be capture it all for our readers.

Your truck will be photographed and covered on video for the magazine and our website. The information we gain together will also be made available here at LS1tech.com

thanks for your time.

Is there a particular location that this needs to occur around? Most of this type of stuff happens in the Los Angeles area.

The magazine is based in Orange County so the testing would have to be performed nearby. LA county is fine. I can't offer out of state dyno testing at this time. Im working with local shops to do the testing.

I'm your "Huckleberry", lol.

I am going to put an STS turbo on the 408. Wish I would have dyno'd before I took the 5.3 out though.

What I was saying is that if you were to set up a dyno or test session out here in the North East that my combo would give you some good numbers and results for a LS1 article.

No, I haven't. We could dyno it before and after the STS install. The 5.3 was removed two weeks ago or else we could have done a dyno of the 5.3, 6.7 and 6.7 with turbo with and wihout a tune since I will be using EFI Live for the tuning. PM me and we can set this up. BTW, I am in SoCal(Riverside area) so I am close to OC.

PS I will be getting some electric fans so we could see if they make any diff in the dyno also.
