The only specs that I can post are 113+X 23X/25X 6XX/6XX. Got to respect manufacturer's wishes.

Certainly sounds nasty - the car should be on the dyno today.

Sounds pretty freakin' tough Joey, almost like the intro to that Van Halen song "Hot For Teacher".
Can't wait to see some track times out of it.

Thanks for the kind words folks - this thing runs as hard as it lopes! Hopefully the owner will report back with track times shortly. Here are our dyno results; the graph is plotted over a car with similar mods minus the cam.

We have done quite a few of those and they make pretty good power, escpecially when you add some ported heads to that combo.
