You got this right. the Z06 works extremely well on the smallish dry hit, better than any other car, imo. Can you say 480rwhp and 10.xx on a little 125rwhp dry hit.

Stock cobras are slugs compared to the Z06, so maybe some more seat time is all you need. If your going up against a highly modded Cobra, why can't you be modded. You cheat someone on purpose in my area and you'll get what's coming to ya, for sure. If you have to cheat, stay the hell home with your mother.

Update:
The guy who works on my bike and builds some prostock motorcycles said he would port my heads for me while the car is down for the cam swap Does this sound like a good idea guys? What could I see with stock valves in LS6 heads with a mild port and CheaTR or maybe a 224/228 .59x/.59x 114-117lsa? I'd really like to get 450rwhp @6500 on the motor and I guess I'll have to cave and get some LG Longtubes

Also thinking of getting the heads milled while they're off the car. What kinda milling can I do with a CheaTR on LS6 heads and still run 91 octane? I plan on running 100 octane whenever I spray but getting to work and back will be 91. Would I have to worry about clearances? The CheaTR has a 230 exhaust duration? How much can I mill and use 91 octane and the CheaTR?
