I'm interested in why you chose the dry sleeve rather than MID sleeves. I'm thinking on a MID sleeve kit at the moment.

Dont need to go MID for what I am chasing. The MID sleeves you basically have to gut the block is a lot of machine work and would cost more than just getting an LSX block and be done with it.
Dont get me wrong the MID sleeves are pure horn but are outside my price range and not necessary for my application.

sweet!!! i been waiting to hear this. power figures?

305rwkw 962nm at the tyres nothing over to top in regards to power figures but car has a lot that will bring that figure down, 4200rpm stallie, built auto and 3.9 gears all rob a power figure so to speak. If I was to convert the car to manual and fit 3.45 gears would show more power but the car would not drive the way it does now. Can cruise it without worry and when you wanna plant it, it goes straight upto 4600rpm and blazes the tyres.
Was going to be doing an oil change and running it back up on the dyno to ensure everything is sweet as it is now all run in but there have been some issues with highway patrol just seeing what comes off it first.

your car will sound tough as well when you can. Can you get the combustion chamber of your heads cc'd so can work out your compression that way can work out if be best to deck heads or not.
