interesting differences in the curves there.

the shift points would make it a very interesting race to watch.

What gear was the pull done in with the TC? I've heard the engine uses torque management in the first two gears.

Wow... That's impressive... There's already a building aftermarket for the LNF so this motor has alot of potential.

The reason why I insisted on doing a same day/same dyno comparo was so that there would be no comparison errors for having dynoed cars on different dynos, on different days, in different weather conditions, etc., etc., etc.

So your 225whp has no real bearing here as it pertains to our results, or to GM's Stage 2 for that matter ...

Sweet. Looks like the SS/TC will net some big(ish) numbers when modded.
