Oh that sucks i wish you knew exactly. The reason i ask is because in my cam only car i got slightly pulled on by a z06 that had claimed catback only.

Your car seems to do pretty damn good. Seems to be some pretty sweet car out there in the desert

What Jed means is if you aren't spraying nitrous oxide, you don't need the forged components.

As I understand it, the forged crank, rods and pistons won't help your horsepower numbers, they will just help keep the engine together if you have a power adder like nitrous or are running a super or turbo charger. Unless the pistons up your compression. Come to think about it, you probably have access to decent gas that will accomodate an increased compression ratio.

Your English is fine. Better than a lot of us gearheads on this web site.

Nice job walking that Corvette after he got the jump on the start.

I had a heads/cam Z06 that make 465rwhp/422rwtq and it would be hard to pull on that thing. I actually had the speedo pegged (200mph) in it on a local freeway and it was still pulling. C5s have insane aerodynamics and such low CDs that they pull hard past 120 in comparision to f bodys.
