My car was F1C. I went back because I got tired of all the stupid corvette gremlins and I like to drive my car more than I like fixing it. N/A all the way man.

I thought you had more power before? What was your previous NA 408 combo and what was it making? I was waiting to see what your combo made with the TFS heads. I remember you having a diff set of heads and cam combo or am i just being retarded?

The other combo was around 450 or so I can't remember exact numbers. It was ETP 215 62cc heads with a GT11 cam. I had a set of -2cc pistons in there as well but they stuck out the block .100 so I had to stack gaskets. Didn't like that at all so I went ahead and put the boost pistons back in and ordered some new heads. Ron talked me into the other stuff like the cam, rockers, oil pump, and etc.

Very nice, must say i liked the f/i setup better but can understand your frustration with having to fix you car all the time. Nice numbers good luck with the new setup

Kevin, engine sounds like it's runnin' great. Hopefully you can lead me in the right direction with my 408 build
i think within' a month or so i'm gonna pick up that 6.0 engine then start looking for a local place to bore it out Gotta start getting my parts aquired as well. I think if i do this i'm gonna go with the MS4 cam
i always wanted to run that cam as it's HUGE. maybe a polluter, we'll see. I'd probably be better off with a custom grind instead of off the shelf. We'll see. Can't wait for the video

I too went from sc to na/402. I road race my car and the sc was just too much work. 402 seems just as fast, even though it has 90 less rwhp. I too just want to drive mine, tired of working on it. I am thinking I might should have done the MS4 instead of the MS3, but that might be a future mod.
Awesome numbers.
Awesome numbers.
