Default Pete's Handy Work

Got my intake and injector housings back today. Cleaned them up tonight and installed the IH O Rings... Its a shame nobody will be able to see Pete's porting job. Thanks Pete... Cant wait to get it all back together... hopefully this weekend.

I am well aware this is a slippery slope.... I'm hoping this combined with a 4:10 rear gear will satisfy my needs... hoping...

Pete's top-end porting, AND 410s! It will be a totally different animal! You won't believe the difference, the first time you "whack" it (as Pete says!).

This is how the LT5 should have come from the factory. I think that is safe to say, looking at the gen-II and then the gen-III versions. Without cams or TB porting, mine dynoed at 432 rwhp (approx 508 @ the crank) without changing the stock idle or mpg, up from ~327 wheel hp stock. That's quite a trick - and testimony for Marc and Pete as to some of the advantages of the DOHC platform.

I'm strangely curious about getting a 4:10 gear.

Where are we sourcing them nowadays and what do you have to do to recalibrate the speedometer?

My '93 has a Dana 4.09 gear. Came that way when I got the car.

I believe you need to change the speedometer gear in the transmission to re calibrate. Not 100% sure on that.

I'm interested too. Talked to Steve @ Crossed Flags, and he only recommended up to 3.90s as he no longer has a good source for the 4.10s. And yes, you have to change the speedo gear to correct for the rear gears. I know Haibeck lists them.
