Default h/c ta vs bolt on c6

I just added ported 243 to my ms3 car. I wasn't real happy with the gains. So I decided to test it out on the street. This c6 runs very good and has already beaten several h/c ls1s. so I thought it would be a good gauge for me.

both runs were from a 30 and both in first gear. both on d/r and both had passengers. the second race I let out early but would have been same outcome. I am happy with the car, not happy I lost but it did well.

I had a good time, and im your car runs way stronger than the numbers say it should. I think we were all a little let down, but not anymore!

Oh ok. I wish I could race with you guys.

I'd love to run your car once it has h/c. It would be a good race!

Do you have a graph of your car after the heads you can post up? Where did you get the heads and do they have any work done to them?

That is amazing how much lower the numbers the vette puts out buts still beating the t/a. Must be the weight difference?
