It's been a while since I posted in this thread so I'll give a update. The LS2P jumps and handles well. Even when jumping off angle it has been leveling itself out on me. 30K diff fluid in the center seems to be the right weight for the setup I'm running.
Today I took it out to the local BMX track with killjoyken's new Savage conversion and bashed for a while on the double jumps and the 5ft tall big jump. It flew off of the big jump and was easy to rock back and forth in the air to bring the nose up or down. The only problem with the LS2P and this size of jump is the chassis slapped almost every time.
The doubles were fun. they are about 2 1/2 to 3 feet high but aren't spaced out very far so you have to hit it with the right speed or you case on the next jump. I cased pretty hard on my last jump. The chassis flexed enough on impact to pop the front center CVD out and left a minor tweak. I'll have to tear it down in the next week or 2 and see if I can work the tweak out of the chassis and go over everything.
This truck has taken a beating and with everything I have done a minor tweak in the chassis is nothing compared to other vehicles I have purchased in the past. I'm happy with the Hot Bodies plastic and quality on the parts.
If I have time in the next week I may upload a video of the jumps.
