[quote=“AJC2500,post:90,topic:24902"”]

does the bottom end stuff have anything to do with like cyro freezing or media blasting the rings/rotating assembly? i’ve heard walnut shell and other types of really fine media blasting (i forget the exact name of the company) on the rings can do wonders. also works for the drivetrain as well. i think crane cams did some testing on stock ls1 f-body’s and they picked up like 8-10 whp by blasting the ring and pinion gear with i believe it was walnut shell, could have been something else.

Nope… nothing of the sort. What you are talking about sounds like it would just reduce friction by fine polishing some peices.
