LOL... Suncoast makes a good product..... Everytime I hear someone talk about them, It makes me think about Joe Webb and his death, and how horrible it had to be for his friend to have to drag him back on the boat... Last I heard they still think it was a heart attack as they came up....

I know the LLY is sort of a head headed stepchild and has always been significantly lowwer on power than the LB7 or LBZ... But some of the guys have got the EFI Live programs kickin for it... Lots of fun, but your always chasing a weak component!
