Default Put together another car. cruising use/roadtrip car

Put together this thing over the past few weeks.

Wanted something I could drive long distance and not worry about e85 stations close by.

So I put this together with a pump has 11.7ish compression motor.

Would have used it as a daily but the c6 just beats it in every category as far as I am concerned. So hard to let my c6z sit around and be stuck in this all week.. But the c6 uses e85 so that made it impractical to take on roadtrips or long travels.

This thing has a forged 429
4.130 bore 4in stroke
Sleeved stock alum block
254/265
Ls7 heads stainless valves race valve job
Ls7 manifold and tb
Lingenfelter converter box to make all the 58x stuff work with the stock ECM
Ls3 Vette wheels.
Built Trans
3.15 rear

Car went from nothing to almost completely built in no time.
Is a tune away from about 550 to 560rwhp

Cant even get a jack under it now...

You have a c5 diff? How strong does it seem?

Hoping car goes around 135 or so on motor.. But don't even want to track it if it's 99% sure I'll break the diff.
