I could hear them. Very little overlap with lots of duration.

That's it. I can't have much overlap with the charger throwing air in before the twins hit power and. But also can't have too much pressure before detonation.

The program sounds to be working so far. Won't know for sure until the twins are on.

Looks good IBD - I hope you get things wrapped up soon. That's one hell of a build that your nearing completion on.

Haven't done much to my newest toy, but i did change the harmonic balancer to a fluidampr. Damn harmonic balancer was wobbling around and failing at 56k!!! Also got some engine covers!!! Think im keeping my truck as is for a while. same for the V

I actually haven't even found a good forum. There are a few cts-v / caddilac forums but no one is active on there.

there's also ls1tech, but thats mostly just corvettes and engine building. So i guess you guys are stuck with me for now

Bought it a few months ago. But picked up a 2006 caddilac cts-v. It's got the 6.0L ls2 bolted to a t-56 six speed It's got a few modifications too.

haha funny thing is i sold off some modular engine parts to pay for the harmonic balancer. And my granpa's car is totally boss! It actually makes less power than the truck but it's way quicker.
