What else could be done? Here is my setup on my car right now. I was wondering if anyone could think of any bolt ons or anything else except blowers, turbos, or nitrous. And i was also wondering if someone could tell me the best way to raise my compression and still be able to run on 93 pump gas? Thanks
Engine:
9.2:1 Compression
scat forged rods
speed pro forged pistons
new OE replacement lifters/Trays
cloyes non-adjustable timing set
ARP Main studs
ARP head studs
Clevite H bearings in cam, rods and mains
Patriot stage 3 LS6 Style heads
Lost the cam card, but the specs are 228/232 @.050 with ~.580 lift (if i remember correctly)
all new GM gaskets
TSP air lid
LS6 Intake
ported LS6 oil pump
Comp hardned pushrods
Mac headers w/ true duals
160 T-stat
ASP underdrive pully
ported stock throttle body

my first thought was why so low on the comp. as well...
that said you could upgrade to a 90/90 or the new 92/92 setup from fast.
i like procharger for a low comp motor myself

You could buy new heads and have them milled. This would help a lot and go with only a stage 1 or 2. Stage 3 is specifially designed for larger cubes and perfect for a procharger.
Or you could by my Thuner Racing Heads that are for sale and have already been milled... https://ls1tech.com/forums/lsx-parts-sale/972934-tr-cnc-ported-heads-tr224-cam-pr-lifters-oil-pump-head-bolts.html
