Very What kind of flow numbers are you getting out of those LT1 castings? If you don't mind telling.

Kain my heads are stock unported I had them flowed at Thunderracing and they flowed 185 intake 150 exhaust then I went to a different flowbench and they flowed 205/160. I am still trying to maximize the stockhead /baby cam setup before I go the ported head/big cam route. Frank95z

That's awesome, congrats!
At what rpm does that cam make peak hp? Your cam is small based on what some others are running, how is the lope and driveabilty?

Thanks

Based on the dyno the cam makes power to 6200. Thats where I shift it also. Has a nice mild lope at 210/224 with a 112 center. Very drivable and street friendly. I still get 20mpg on the highway. Frank95z

Very sweet. I would like to know the secret of getting the small cam to run like that. I was hoping i could get the HOT cam down in the 11.9s but I am almost tired of trying. looking at larger cams and more head to get there....congrats!!!!

congrats frank. That thing is moving..as usual.

everyone..the secret is frank. He has been tunning..and testing..and optimizing this thing for a long time. His car just goes to show that its not just throwing parts at something that makes you go fast.
