Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio

We think once or twice we brought up the cathedral port vs square port head thing.  There has always been a "debate" about what heads are better for what and why.  Tonight we have an expert that tested exactly this.  Ben Strader of EFI University has built two engines with each of the head styles.  The first engine, the cathedral port, has been installed in Ben's car and has made passes at the track.  Listen in for the details and do a Google search of "Spinal Tap"

EFI University is the real deal for education in these areas.  We cannot stress enough the level of professionalism and detail that EFI U provides.  If you are serious, and have the time, call them.

We always welcome repeat guest, and Dave Localio of HeadGames is no exception.  He actually lives close by the "studio" and at some point is going to come back in.  Dave has a ton of real world experience in cylinder head work from everything from Vipers to 2JZ.  Listen in and he will be back again in studio soon.

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio

Tom returns with some tales from the UAE after being gone for what seems like 6 months.  Custom Show, serious dune machines, and clams are all covered.

Mike has gotten deeper into the welding and metalwork side in his quest for a turbocharged Tahoe.  He got some products from some companies you might be interested in.  He's quite picky so when he says something works, it works.

Mike, Tom, Tad, and two friends of the show Anthony and Josh stopped in to check out the "studio"

For long time listeners Anthony called in about the self learning EFI in one of the very early show.  We told em to come in and years later he finally did.  Anthony is going to try to get to Drag Week this year and is getting parts together for a old school SBC.  Josh is a LS guy and working on his own deal right now.  We are going to see if we can help these guys get some part together.  It's always nice to meet good guys from the car world.  They are both welcome to stop by anytime.

A bunch of live callers called in and that is always nice.

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio.

This days always happen.  We look around the room and say "whatdoyaogot"... nothing.  Sometimes these shows are good from the standpoint of just the guys being the guys.  (if ya heard the preshow stuff like "Build a Tad" referenced you could only imagine)

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio.

Lake speed has been around racing as long as any of us can remember.  Working with Gibbs Racing for many years has lead to the formation of Driven Racing Oils.  Oils have changed more than most people over the years and those changes have impacted the life of high stress components in the engines we work with.  Listen in for the changes that happened over the years in oils and why you should be using Driven Racing oil in an engines that push the limits.

Mike, Tom, Tad, and SS Jeff in Studio.

Jeff stopped by for the show and he has his SS going pretty good.  10.60 at 135ish.  That's pretty damn nice for a 4400LBS street car.

Greg Banish has been on several times before and always has loads of good information.  Greg has honest to god OEM level calibration experience and knows the "right" way to do everything from their perspective.  Imagine having all kinds of power and the mannerisms of a the showroom production car.  His videos are priceless if you are working with the Gen 4 GM tuning tools and you should really check it out.

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio.

It's always nice to have return guests and it's even better when we can get some of the latest info people should know about.  

JC Beattie of ATI Performance joins us tonight for some additional transmission information.  All the power in the world won't get the job done if the car does not leave and gets down the track.  The engines of today can make so much power they require a trans that is built to live.  Trans and converter tech has come a long way over the past few years and it never stops evolving.  ATI is always on top of what it takes to get it done.  Listen in as we discuss everything from the TH400 of today and the transmissions of the near future.

Mike and Jeff in studio.

To borrow from todays racing lingo, this is what we would call a "No Prep" show.  (not that most of them are full of prep to begin with)

The show was cancelled because Tom got called away, but Jeff showed up so we turned on the mics.  I have always said they can't all be winners, but sometimes it's nice to just shoot the breeze.  

PJ from Canada called in (eh) to give some Rocky Mountain race week info.  We had past shows discussing this event and if you are interested this has some details about this year's upcoming event.

The performance world changes fast.  Advancements in power production have been occurring year after year.  If you don't keep on top of things you will get left behind.

Mark Conte joins us tonight to discuss Real Street and the power production possible today.  Anyone in the Supra world certainly knows who Real Street is, but they are much more than Supera performance.  Mark and the guys at Real Street have you covered for just about anything you are working on.  Sound performance principles know no brand limits and you can be sure info from Real Street is the real deal.
