Well I have the tranny out of my truck and I am waiting to recive my new FLT level 5 4L65E so I figured now is a good time to do the motor swap I've been thinking about doing. I had been wanting to do a 6.0L swap for a little while now, but after doing some research I've decided to have Rex "JETMANN" build me a 5.7L engine. It will be built with forged rods and pistions and all the good stuff including a set of WCCH stage 2 LS1 heads. I have complete faith in both Rex and Richard to put together a great engine so I am going with a cam that Richard has suggested. I will be putting my Radix on top of the motor and planing to run about 9-10lbs of boost. I hope to be able and achive 500rwhp and make sure that my CC can run mid to low 12's. My truck is a daily driver so the main concern is to keep it reliable! The engine build is just getting started so it'll be a couple of weeks before I get it and install it. I would just like to ad that both Rex and Richard are great guys to deal with.

 

Damn that sounds badass!!! That should be tons of fun. What track do you run at down there?

 

Mostly New England Dragway, but some of my friends go to Oxford so I am sure I'll be going there to.

 

I just saw your sig in another thread and notice'd you mentioned Rex and WCCH. I was about to send you a PM concerning your engine but saw this thread last minute. Good call on going through them! Aside from being the best and most knowlegable people at what they do they are CLASS ACTS and aren't looking to make a quick buck, which gave me definite peace of mind when I worked with them. Congrats on your build and good luck breaking into the low 12's my CC brotha!

 

I couldn't possibly ask for any better customer service from either one of them. They really are great guys to deal with and can't wait to get the engine in my hands! Thanks for wishing me luck on the low 12's. I hope I make it there!

 

thats gonna run like a raped ape.

 

You need one of these!

 

This is going to show up in every engine swap post isn't it.

 

brotha trying to make a dime....got a motor to pay for!

 

Does that thing come with some grade 8 bolts to hold it on?
