Matt Hickman spends his days running Alliance Fabrication<\/a> in Haslet, Texas. On his down time you can find him working on his tube chassis Honda Civic drag monster. In our previous article<\/a> Matt was building his own turbocharged V8 engine. Since then he has been busy installing his newly won Steve Morris turbocharged 6.2 L LS3. Matt beat over 10,000 contestants to win the LSFree contest<\/a>. The engine features CP Bullet pistons, SME Forged H-Beam rods, SME cam, Fuel Injector Clinic 1000 cc LS3 Hi-Z injectors, and a Bullseye 83 mm turbocharger. On an engine dyno it produced 1,060 horsepower on 14.5 psi of boost and can easily hold more with a stronger cooling system. In case you are wondering a similar engine package from SME would cost around $23,000. <\/p>\n
