I've had a 5.7 for a while and done my due diligence on ammo for it. What I now is blue tip Fiocchi and Federal ball ammo are light loads and those rounds won't penetrate much soft armor. To me, they're just plinking ammo. Example: But a lot of the after-market stuff has the velocity to penetrate body armor. Example: Buffman on YouTube has tested a lot of 5.7 ammo out of the pistol: https://www.youtube.com/user/BuffmanLT1/search?query=5.7 That said, I love my Five-seveN and wouldn't hesitate to carry it for self defense with good ammo (n

Concealed Carry Insurance?

I've been with USCCA a good bit now. Thank God I've not ever had to use them. I have chosen John Harris, Executive Director TFA as my lawyer through them should I ever need one. Good to know the lawyer you choose is actually Pro 2A to the core. -

Got my Tim King Stage II 1,000 HP built 6L90 yesterday along with the Circle D LS Series Pro Billet Triple Disc 3200-3400 stall. Can’t tell much by the outside of the trans, but there it is. Lots more to come!

I test drove and almost bought this mosaic black ZL1. Just couldn't work out a deal. https://www.carlblackchevy.com/inventory/new-2018-chevrolet-camaro-zl1-rwd-2dr-car-1g1fk1r66j0166972

Now that’s impressive! Two ZL1 1LE’s! I’m probably going to get a ZL1 1LE with the 10L90 in a year or so.

Trans started slipping, so... I got a Stage 2 Tim King / TK Performance built Cadillac CTSV 6L90E that is 1,000hp capable. A custom Driveshaft Shop 3.5” Aluminum 1 piece DS. Circle D 3400 Pro III Billet multi disc converter. BMR Driveshaft Safety Loop Black Hammertone Should be a nice setup that will hold power and last if I can find a good trans tuner. Working on getting larger trans cooler, trans mount, and trans cross member. 2012 CTSV 6L90 trans I bought for the core. Really wanted to keep it as a spare since it was a good condition 4

With 3.9” pulley it made 723rwhp @ 14.5psi on 93 pump. Timing dialed back to 13 degrees peak for daily driver reliability. Shop said e85 will be around 800rwhp.

Any fuel pump can fail. Even the stock in-tank pumps and all their after-market replacements. I lost a motor to a 100 shot of nitrous over a bad in-tank pump once. That said, it really is a none issue. Most superchargers and nitrous kits come packaged with a similar pump. I've seen a lot of cars running these DSX setup with zero issuess. One is a friend of mine with a 10.3 sec Cadillac CTSV at 4400lbs race weight.
