thanks guys, I havent posted build specs anywhere that is why you havent seen them..

Oh and its and Ls3 intake... started with an L76 shortblock with around 30-40k miles, Put some brand new Ls3 heads with PRC double springs and brand new Ls3 intake mani. And a custom cam of course. Every gasket and seal was replaced as well. Figured might as well do it all while its out..

Thanks Matty, I hope it doesnt raise my suspension to much, But I bet it does just enough to make the front higher than the back, Damn lol.. And I didnt go with the Ls3 because the L76 shortblock was here and ready to go and I personally saw and heard the vehicle run that this L76 came out of so I bought it. I could do about the same power with the Lq9 but you dont see a whole lot of aluminum blocks in the trucks so its a little different and it saves me some weight..

Exactly, Thats 1 reason why I wanted it just because its kinda rare. I know it will be a huge difference. Going to be fun. If this was an all out track truck or if it becomes a track truck then yes a 4k stall will be in. But I like my 3600 now. It should be in the truck this coming up week or next week I am hoping.
