Yeah, trouble is Dave, we let him into the country to reek havoc designing our our roads, tunnels and water storage systems. . We're lucky he had nuffin to do with designing the coathanger or there would have been no celebrations yesterday.
I reckon we shouldn't let em in unless they have direct genetic links to convicts.

Les,
Well done , with a bit of work that motor will make heaps of torque and power.
If you are looking for a flywheel and clutch make sure you check out the Textralia. It will handle anything you can throw at it but is easy to drive in traffic .
Check out the LS1 site for info and testimonials.
Regards,
Phil

Thanks Phil, I'm pleased with my decision.
Certainly the Textralia is the choice of flywheel and clutch and is already on order.
As far as the engine goes. I view it as a late model LS1 with a few more cubes and little more torque. Whilst not an LS2, a change of cam should see it approaching close to LS2 performance.
I think it will perform beyond my expectations.
Cheers

You betcha Sambo. I'm currently using 295/50/15 on the back with Yoko 352's.
The yoko's aren't all that sticky but will do for rego and run-in then I'll see whats about.
Cheers
