SBE LS3 S480 C5Z 5.6@125 1/8 mile Don't think I've posted much over here about my car. Been browsing the forums again lately and figured after last weekends outing I would post up some vids.
Quick run down of mods for those interested:
09' LS3 with ARP heads studs and rod bolts
Custom cam with dual springs
Custom single turbo setup fabricated by my brother (RLZ Engineering...import shop) with forward facing truck manifolds and 2.25" crossovers divided all the way to flange w/ 4" downpipe.
Standard/Cast S480 T6 1.32
Treadstone A/A intercooler
PTE 66mm w/g
RPM Transmissions powerglide and 9" conversion w/3.50 gear
E85 fuel system
275 radial pros
The setup has been together for little over a year and has been running mid 5's since it's first track outing. I built and tuned the entire car minus the welding/fab work. Car is currently on 15psi and 13* timing. Gonna try and push it a little further in a couple weeks (18psi or so) to see if I can get a sub 5.5 pass and would love to see 130mph.
The original idea was to build a reliable/streetable 8 second corvette and this sbe LS3 has been running so well I've just left it alone to enjoy for a while. The setup has worked very well together so next after some cage/chassis work will be a forged engine setup (still deciding which route I wanna go). I will be going for low 5's @ 140ish or 170 in the 1/4 will suffice!
diff angle of above pass..
Got caught sleeping bad here :hide:
We are buddies though and we actually ran almost identical times but a .259 r/t ruined my pass LOL

Nice setup! I have an 08 L92 w/ an S-480. I'm only on 11 lbs and 13* but I'm also on straight pump gas. Since the V4 update has come out, I've ordered a flex fuel sensor to be able to run E-85. I'd be interested to see your timing table. I cobbled one together based on cathedral port tables from Denmah.
