He's made some changes but the last N/A dyno was something like 446rwhp I believe.

That's decent for an NA car. Would you know what type of weight reduction he has done? Asking since I want to reduce weight on mine.

Yeah I do, you can PM if you want exact details the gist of it is it's ~3100lbs, mostly just stuff taken out of the car, full interior though. Car even has a 9 inch and steel driveshaft to weigh it down.

Nice, the SS really jumps. The vette needs the driver mod.
