I spoke with wade today... He was very helpful... He gave me alot of tips. He even told me to give him a call anytime, I too am building a nitrous C5 not a 422 but a 408 and he was willing to give me tuning help over the phone, and tell me what plugs to run, thats cool as shit... Most tuners on here would tell you to go pound shit... Not wade.... Good luck with the new records wade you and the crew deserve to have'em back....

ps.... stop screwing with turbos and go nitrous......

I have one of the ARE 6.0 Iron Block with the Ridiculous 9/16 head studs.... Look for some fun stuff in the next few months.

That's the foundation of powerplant in my car... we have not had it on a chassis dyno aside from a baseline tune... but we can do the math to see what kind of power it takes to run 177.5MPH @3460lbs...

Fun Stuff.....

Can't wait to run my car.

Wade still has the F-Body nitrous record, and a bunch of local guys are stepping up direct ports on 427 LS7's in the next 2 weeks...

I went 9.2 last year with an hyd cam 427 and 200HP shot in my ring kit... but when it comes to BIG power, it's hard to beat turbos!
