I can't speak 100% for Lou, but I know many use LS1-edit (I do). I personally started with a GM ASA computer, then tweaked it with LS1 edit. I'll dial in a new program once I get my new LS2 engine in place. I expect it to be very similar to my old LS6 program, as the displacement is only slightly great, and the restrictor being slightly smaller.

**The ASA computers were done for 58psi, and I ran my old car at 52psi, so I had to richen things up about 10% over the GM program. I also raised the rev limit significantly over the ASA burn, as they were done for engines running stock bottom ends.
We are heading to race in St pete Florida next weekend. if you are from the area , stop in and see us.
Thanks

Oh man! I'm in St. Petes now. Got here Tuesday. On my way from the airport I see a big billboard for racing in the streets of St Petes... Damn it! I'm flying out next Thursday and will miss it. I would love to have been able to see you guys race in person and stop by your pit area.
Oh well, like they say, timing is everything... Maybe I'll catch you guys somewhere else.
I'd stay over longer but I'm heading back to NC to pick up my 02 Z06
When are you guys going to be in the area? I have heard something about races, but never paid attention. I am leaving this saturday for vegas, hope I dont miss you guys

We are on the track Friday,Sat and race on Sunday. So Friday will be your only chance to catch us. We are on the track early AM 8:30 then again at 4:00 or so.
Watched the race on Speedvision Lou. Sorry about the continuing problems with the head cracking. But you sure were giving them a run for their money while it lasted. What's the story with the heads cracking? Are they ported too much? I know there were a lot of rule changes this year. Can't wait to see you get that problem taken care of so you can go the distance and give all these factory guys a run!

The problem is porting the heads too much. I think that Lou said someplace that he welded up the weak area of the heads and had it approved by the governing board. Hopefully, this will never happen again and he can get back to racing.
Car looks great! That's a pretty wild looking hood. I'm sure it helps with cooling. After looking at the front end, wouldn't it be nice if you could utilize the stock driving/fog light location for brake ducts? That's probably against the rules.
Lou..the car looks awesome. I'm planning on coming to the race Sunday as I'll be in Florida so you better kick some ass! Is there a way for me to come by the pits and say hello while i'm there? I'll bring my race suit and helmet in case you need a fill-in.......LOL
I still don't understand the heads cracking. I had one set crack back in early 03, but the engine still ran fine. I pulled the heads to install thinner gaskets, or I would have never noticed. GM traded them no questions asked.
They do weld the heads around the rocker bosses, but it seems to be a relatively rare problem these days.
