Got it in the mail yesterday and I'm getting excited, this thing looks sweet! Install probably won't be until next weekend, but I'll keep updated

Well I bought a whole motor and resealed the whole thing, so the whole thing ran better once I swapped motors. Couldn't tell you if it ran better with just the timing chain alone.

Got it in yesterday and so far I'm impressed! There is definitely a top end increase, and I haven't noticed really any low end loss. I do think I need to get Sean to update my SCT tuner though because I think it could run better with that adjusted for 4.56's, 52mm throttle body and the M1. I went WOT a few times but need to be nice to my tranny because I'm starting to get a 2nd to 3rd slip. But just after 1 night its pretty awesome.

Glad you like it!! You should see a small improvement in mpg as well IF you can keep your foot out of it. The next thing you need is a wideband A/F meter so you can give sct all the info needed.
