In all seriousness sorry to the forum for the trouble.

I bet you were not writing about being nice.....prolly creating some new cam regrind design which might take a bit more than 15 minutes but with your great technical background who is to say

Now now boy's play nice in the sandbox.

No, "Pete". I'm sorry, but you seem to have misunderstood the statement. It means exactly as posted, but to restate it a different way...earlier you said:

My response was that I have respect for the business and products FBI has developed in recent years. But...the idea that 500 horsepower 350s wouldn't exist if it weren't for FBI's work is ridiculous. Second generation ZR1s with 350-cuin engines making 500 at the wheels go back at least as far as the mid-90s and perhaps as far back as 1992 or 1993, a time that predates FBI's existence by many years. LPE, DRM, Automasters, Haibeck and one or two other ZR1 tuners who were big in LT5s in the 90s were the ones responsible.

Well then with respect your Z's 413 rwhp is BS you have any timeslips to back it up.

"Timeslips" are issued by drag strips to document quarter mile passes. Rear wheel power figures are generated by chassis dynamometers. To support the 413 rwhp number, I have only chassis dyno data.

...cause i forgot more about LT5's then you think you know.

Ah geez."Pete". You sound like the hobby's latest JohnRovner. Can't you be more original? If I had a nickel for everytime someone has said that, I'd be freakin' rich. I have been covering ZR1 for media since 1987 and have been working on them, occasionally, since 1989 and, regularly, since 1995. While admittedly, I don't work on them for a living, I'm satisfied with my knowledge of the LT5 engine.

I have videos,timeslips,dyno sheets to back mine up.

I'm glad you have that content, but what is it you are going to back up? I wasn't questioning any claims about performance of FBI products. I stated that the idea that 500 horse 350s would exist if it hadn't been for FBIs work was ridiculous.

Just close this stupid thread down. This isn't even my fight. I mean, really? I'm far from an expert but I can see where someone likes to talk just to hear his head rattle.

I used to know a kid who had a subscription to every auto mag under the sun. He thought he was an expert because he could read and write. Drove everyone nuts with his reading ability and lack of practical experience.

Not to change the subject, but PETE, it would be interesting to hear more about the engine producing 700 hp....? TIA

Well damn, Brett. At least I chose to join the Navy over becoming a technical writer for those magazines I like to read!
