Default C5Z vs C5
C5Z Custom grind cam, longtubes, intake, FTP tune

Red C5- MS3 Cam, 243 heads?, LS6 intake?, Z06 manifolds, Raymer tuned.

We did two digs and two 40 rolls. Here is the carnage.

Might as well put 185/50/15 tires on the back while you're at it.

I saw nitrous brackets but couldn't tell if bottles were in them on the first roll video. Car rolls the f out. People always want to have the biggest cam they can get but don't realize it's about the complete setup and not just one component.

I believe his tuner told him they were almost as good as long tubes.

Do it. Say you were spraying the first time and you won't spray again. And then take the bottle out and show him its not connected... then murder him the same way and get your cash. LOL

And tell him after his tuner is a dumbass for mixing a MS3 cam with stock manifolds. That would be a record Guiness hp gain for a longtube install!
