Here is another one with the sound clip and video the one I was thinking about!!
I love Trick Flow. Had some of their heads on my previous car. And they make nice LS heads. But I've heard there LS top end kit isn't too impressive. Not terrible but not as great as it sounds on paper. No personal experience, just what I've read.
PM Frost. He's tuned a few of these kits. He'll tell ya what he thinks.
I remember seeing some dyno's of them 500 kits and I believe they were around the 450 area!!Quote:

^^^^There ya go right there. Sounds like a good combo.
Holy moly sounds good man, now time to start saving for my set up!!
thanks,it has slp loudmouth and longtubes,i get compliments all the time on the sound:slash: even from mustang owners!!!Quote:
