    I just want everyone to understand that THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING! That set up right there has so much room to grow. This is an awesome foundation for many awesome videos to come! Keep in mind this was just a test run. This thing hasn’t even had a chance to be tuned. Just imagine when this baby gets some power adders and some tuning, and maybe some impeller/jet pump/nozzle work.

    There will likely be oil starvation issues with this as constructed without a dry sump system. Trust me, I know from road racing LS engines... Install a Accusump at a minimum to save the engine when it sees those brief starvation moments (and it will).
    Also, I would highly suggest wrapping the exhaust system if you're going to run it as it sits. It will possibly save you from melting glass (or worse) later. I quickly watched the exhaust builds and it didn't look like you ran a wet system down stream of the wet manifolds. Might be wise to run even small water lines into the exhaust to cool it.

    Can't wait to see what you can accomplish through tinkering with the gearbox and gearing. The v8 I assume has way more torques than stock but the rpms I doubt are there. I bet the ls could handle a higher gear ratio for more thrust and quicker starts
