Thanks guys.

I still can't believe that after all that work it is FINALLY running.
Sounds kinda sappy...but I am quite proud of myself. This was a first time project for me.

OH MY GAWD! Lous, that is a beast beyond words. Your car rolled like two inches with that rev..... I need to change my shorts.

Where can I do some reading on the LQ9? And can I get a ride?

This isn't your everyday LQ9.
It is completely built. Forged rods, pistons, etc...
The LQ9 is a larger bore iron blocked version of the LS1.

Ride?? Sure. Anytime you are in Colorado.

Awesome. I'd still rather go LS7 myself.

where'd you buy you engine? and did you assemble it yourself, or was it a crate engine?

Texas Speed and Performance.
I didn't assemble the rotating assembly. I did put everything else together though.
It came as a shortblock.
