I plan on having my car back out before too long. If I can keep the heads on it I think I can eek out that N20 record. Well, that is until that bad *** Icon formula comes back out and smacks me around again.

The 5th reply in this thread will give ya the details on the set up. This is also a really good thread about N20 and camshaft selection.

No need to keep it private everybody has seen the car run.
Here is a component list for the long block (Long block assembled by LME)
6.0 litre block with custom oiling system.(ext oil press reg and remote mount oil filter)
GRP aluminum rods
Wiesco custom pistons,with hellfire ring set (15.5 to 1 comp ratio)
LSM solid roller cam (264/268 .705 .705 110lsa)
Lunati solid roller lifters
CV dual taper 3/8 pushrods
Cylinder heads are 6.0l castings that have been extensivley worked by Trevor Johnson. They feature 1.590 PSI springs , Xeldyne 2.100 ti intake valves and 1.67 ti exhaust valves. The rockers are shaft mount .50 offset jesel j2k's. Combustion chambers were welded to create a custom shape, and increase compression. Obviously a 2.100 valve wont clear 4.00 bore , so the heads are offset on the deck 50 thou to correct this issue.
GM perf parts carb style intake also worked by Trevor johnson , with fabricated alum elbow and 90mm throttle body.
I've had problems with head gaskets on this engine from day 1 and I am in the process of swaping over to a new set of heads , and stepping the head studs up to 1/2". I figured why not get the cam program squared away while Im at it. I just don't want to go the wrong direction with it and not see the gains I am looking for. I would like to pick up 100rwhp. I am hoping the right cylinder heads , a new cam , and a direct port system will get me t

I really don't know how much of a "big dog" i'd be, but I'm interested to see what she'll do.
last year, everything in the sig but I had a stock LS1 intake manifold, maf, and stock throttle body on the car weighing in at about 3400lbs with me in it(175). Spraying a 75 shot as a shakedown on the car racing for the first time with the TH350, the car went 10.70 @ 127mph on a 1.48 60ft off the footbrake. This is with about 750-800 psi in the bottle. was way fat going down the track because of that. I have a transbrake, but i didn't have it wired up for that trip to the track. I had a hesitation at the line because of the bottle pressure and the stalling it up to 3000 so it didn't activate too low(no window switch). I have also been told because my car was an M6 and I didn't shut off the VSS in the hptuners, that because it was reading 0mph, that it might have been running in a "park timing table" instead of the WOT timing area. I've never looked into that, but who knows, would be nice to think there's a little something extra left there too.
So for this year, I'm trying out the Beck Sheetmtal intake and I have the TPIS 90mm TB like in my sig. I will be running a SD program with a "ram air" setup like Tom the Roofer has. gonna get this thing dialed in and the codes deleted too. I am setting up the transbrake, but I stll have to find a harlan 2-step.
Right this second, the car is in the process of going through some weight reduction. Getting the HVAC stuff out, the passenger side and driver's side air bag out. Cut the minor brackets and other BS out. Get rid of the power steering stuff. Hopefully by year's end getting a new lightweight hood. Trying to get down into that 3000 raceweight area.
Then towards the end of the year, put about a 200-250 through it and see where she ends up. Just probably running N/A for the next month or two(car should be finished in the next coming week or two).
The big thing is the car is a dog on the motor. Only went 11.5x on a 1.66 60ft at 118mph off the footbrake. The 28" tall tires and the 3.50 gears really hurt it. I'm thinking about putting some 4.30's back in it for the N/A stuff, and then maybe see where i end up rpm/mph wise and see if i can put a 150 on it with a 29.5" slick and fit under my rpm limit. Just trying to stay around 7000-7200 TOPS. I just bought "next's" old header setup, but i think i may be wanting to go back to the same 1 7/8" Kook's I had before but sold
So overall, setup looks like this:
99 Z28 - 3000 RW
A.R.E. 382 all bore w/ their LS1 casting "Stage 3 head"
242/250 612/619 on a 114LSA
TH350
TCT Converter(Jugger's old one from when he went 9.64 on a stock shortblock on spray)
Moser 9" w/ spool and 3.50's
Beck Sheetmetal Intake
TPIS 90mm TB
Jet Hot 1 3/4" headers(next's old setup)
Dumped off the collector
Nitrous Setup is still up in the air.
Pro Stars and 28" Hoosier QTP's
That's just the basic "jist" of it. So who knows?
PS - As an edit... ANYTHING you guys can see to make recommendations on? On how to improve? I mean I know it's pretty vague description.
