The LS6 makes it a different animal.

396 was rated at 325 Flywheel, probably 265 RW with the T400 . All in at 5400 rpm

LS6 dyno'd at 376 RWHP with the T56, around 430 FWHP at 6800 rpm. For stock it pulls pretty good.

80 mph at 1850 rpm in 6th. Its definitely a cruiser and I'm planning to take it on the Power Tour in June. May upgrade power after that.
