Respect as always to the LS3, definitely one of the best engines GM put out.
Friendly betting at the corvette casino...

Wowsers... thanks everyone.... wish I could count on that number picking luck in the 649... But I will take it..Even if it was a barely educated guess. Especially with the promise of something on canvas from Jordy... The mere mention of canvas automatically leads me to think Jordy may have an artistic flair, and I do appreciate art, in any form.... And then there is also the test drive.. Who doesn't like taking a recently modded Corvette for a run... especially when it has someone else's licence plate... 
... You the man Tim... see you in Ponoka.... woohoooo....

I knew it was a strong car for some reason...well now I know why haha. The tq numbers were a shock. Can't wait to try it tomorrow. So just for giggles jeremiad and I did the backward math to figure out crank numbers and I am sure we are very close....we figure its right at 475hp and 461tq. Pretty decent for a few boltons. I really want to save for a cam now next year hahaha. And maybe a 2800 or 3200 stall.
Congrats Eric, as I came runner-up or first loser as my son likes to remind me on occasion perhaps I can take your contest prize out for a spin one weekend a month?

I'm guessing after the first drive that Tim may be hesitant to allow anyone to ever drive it again...

Obviously you want him to see it first, so Eric post it up once you get it! Thanks again for putting that up Jeremiad!
Well.... Rewards are to those with sharp minds..... and extreme luck...
As the winner of @Tinman's dyno horsepower contest, @Jeremiad built a print for me.... It arrived at my office today and upon opening it, I was both surprised and very pleased to find a fabric (canvas?) print of my car stretched over a frame. Kudos to Jordy for offering this up and as you can see below, it has claimed a place of distinction in my man cave. Thanks again Jordy and Tim.

396/401 tuned
