Talking Hello from So Cal

I just joined this site after reading some of the great posts about modified truck motors. I heard about this site from Richard@WCCH. He is working my 5.3l cylinder heads from my 2002 4x4 Tahoe. I installed a Vinci #080 cam 210/218/.551, double roller, SLP oil pump, crane dual springs etc. in October and ended up with 280 RWHP and 287 RWTQ SAE (auto trans). I did my own tuning using HPTuners. I was changing out my stock exhaust manifolds a week ago and found a broken exhaust bolt in the head, which led up to my removing them to extract the bolt. I called WCCH and then met the good folks there. WCCH is installing 1.95/1.57 I/E valves and doing a stage 1 port job and milling my chambers to ~58cc. I'm really looking forward to getting the heads back on and will re-dyno and post my results....

Happy holidays!
Stan Barber.... Barber's Bada$$ Tahoe AKA "BBT"
