Not Ranked
Hey Steve,
the guys at Lone Star tell me that 22% is a very typical loss for their cars. Part of the problem is that lone star does not have a balanced set of headers so I am sure I am losing some power there. Add to that all the other street parts that could be robbing power and 22% is not bad. Also Rob at Keith Kraft said he could get me another 15 - 20 hp at the tires but I would be giving up some of the low end drivability on the street. Since the car spends most of its time on the street I opted for drivability over power and right now I am very pleased with both drivablity and power. Not bad for a pump gas street motor huh.
Duane,
shoot me an email with your contact information if you like. I would be happy to discuss anything about my genesis block. So far I have been very impressed. The genesis block is best described as overkill. It is about 30 lbs heaver, thicker walls, bigger crossbolts, stronger bottom end and improved oiling. I know of two running here (mine and one in a fairlane 725hp) and he is very happy as well. I believe there are also a couple sitting on garage floors awaiting installs that should be on the road this summer.
Chris,
keep me posted on your build!!
John
