Couple of questions about a LY6. I'm about to pick up a 01 camaro SS with a LY6 / T56 setup. I dont know much about this LY6 though. Ive done some reading but didnt find everything i was looking for and some mixed answers. The VVT has been deleted btw.
Mods to the engine are
cam - 235/243 621/624 113lsa
Stock L92 heads milled 20 thousandths
1 7/8 headers
LS3 intake
92mm TB
Air lid.
The car makes 460hp to the tire. That seems light to me. I've looked around and found threads about similar combos but they were all old. What do you think?
If the heads are milled .020 how much compression should this motor have?
The only difference between this motor and the LQ4 motor is the heads and VVT right?
I read on here this motor was stronger than the LQ4 but I'm skeptic to believe that. Can you set that straight?

ly6 and lq4 differances of the ly6 is the cam sensor is on the front of timing chain cover and relucter wheel is 58, insted of 24 and the knock sensors is not in the valley cover there on the side of the motor ly6 also has dish pistons with vavle reliefs stock compression is 9;6;1 not sure what it would be after being milled but as im sure you know its the same bore and stroke as the lq4
