Re: and the saga continues!

Any 1/4 times from your LS1? What times are you expecting with the 6.0?

Re: and the saga continues!

baby cammed ls1 went 12.0x's with no real tune, and got near 20mpg. 6.0...who knows. i'd be content with an 11.0 car on motor. i'm going to go with a real cylinder head this time around, and try to get all my specs perfect. i gotta buddy helping me with it that has a 3700lbs daily that runs 10.7x's on a 347 cube motor, all motor, and still knocks down 18+mpg.

Re: and the saga continues!

I'm going to build something similar next year, are you going to stroke it too? I'm in the planning stages of a carbed 408 with trick flow heads, my goal is low to mid 10's N/A on pump gas.
