sounds like a nice setup. What are you throwing at it for boost and how are you getting it there???

haha....the car has had an sts kit on it for about a year...so stick with that

i made 480hp with 5.5psi and the stock (cam only) 347

so shooting for over 500 with same boost and the 6l....then once i get the fuel system to back it i will shoot for more...and well i still need to ditch the ls1 intake, stock heads, ...and a few other things b4 i go for glory.

who knows its just my daily driver so not looking for anything insane jsut something strong and fast

Very nice . Make sure you get your fuel delivery system squared away. 500 should be easy with this set up. 5.5psi? want to bet that doesn't last long

thats bad *** mitch...... 500 should be easy, i make that with the boost you have right now. you put that 6L in there and the right pistons/317 heads and 600 is in your motor no doubt

navymitch12

iTrader: (1)

not using the 317 heads...the stock ones with the 13.7 cc dish should bring the compression down to a safe level for 5-10psi

i know i could make 600...just want to make 500 wish 5.5 psi....then go from there

The injectors and pump will handle 500 to 550ish no problem.

Good luck with build and keep us posted
