Hi gang,
Well, my car is finally done...;35
They tell me I will receive some photos of my completed car, and one or two videos, hopefully one on the dyno, and another of a "drive by, and also, at idle.  They will also send me the final dyno run of my car.  There will be (2) sheets, one with my final rear wheel #'s, and the other showing a comparison of my stock baseline #'s, compared to the new final #'s.  I'll post that some time tomorrow, hopefully also the videos.  In the meantime, they sent me (11) pics of the process that the new 427 motor goes thru, during the build in the machine shop, to their specifications.  It was a new LS7 block to begin with...;42

Here they are:

Hey Madvet,

Received the car today around noon, took it for a run for about 2 hours despite the light snow showers we are getting.  It's a total beast, takes off like a rocket, and over 3000 rpm, you better be hanging on...what a car!...;42

Despite the snowy, cold, windy weather, (Chicago Spring) Lingenfelter delivered my car this morning. It's been some weeks now since I've seen her, so it was a very welcome sight. Sorry to say that Lingenfelter's was unable to make any kind of Video due to just being too busy, I'll have to do a few myself. Here's some arrival pics...;35

Thanks V.O. the car is a blast, yesterday it was pretty miserable with the high winds and snow showers, and below freezing temps, but today it's supposed to warm up and be reasonable, so I'll take her out and play a little. Sorry about the "no video from LPE" they were so swamped, that one day last week there were 18 cars lined up, waiting for their turn on the dyno.  Every person in the organization was just busy up to their eyebrows. They are a great bunch, and I know that they would have done the video if it were at all possible. I've been looking at some Video-Cams and will probable make a choice within the coming week, so I'll make a few myself. Have a great Easter Celebration with the gang!

Best regards...;42

Good to hear TRJ.  Hope you are enjoying the car when the weather and time permits.  No biggie on the vids, I can't imagine how busy they get at LPE. ;42  

So... have you slept in the garage with it yet? ;41
