I wanted a car that had a LOT of under the curve power so i wouldnt have to swap gearing and change things out to work properly. Obviously by the cam choice i didnt want it to lope and surge, i wanted a stock sounding cam. The mid range power and torque is amazing! I will be having my car built with a forged 346 and bigger (around 230's and .600 lift) cam, tfs cnc 215s or ported 243s, fast 92/92 with the 92mm HSW plate. Want to push her to 600whp next build! I kept the shot down to a 100 since the car now has 106,xxx miles on it. I have purchased a stock t.b. from a guy on CF and will have it shipped to Shaner to have ported. I hope with the ported t.b., exhaust cutouts open and some more tweaking the car will crack 500rwhp! The car is a blast now! Looking to hit 10s this season with a BUNCH of seat time!

Ahh, I see you to frequent Aurthor over there at dynolab lol. Good numbers man, but I couldn't help but think that cam would put you at 400+whp? Very strong curve on spray.

It's close enough to 400.... I would have assumed it would be 400+ too. It's always nice to have more and that's why you have the N20

Great numbers, I'll bet that car is fun as hell on the street! Nice clean install too. Makes me want to pull my nitrous kit and reinstall it in a more organized fashion.

Yea, i think the pushrods are a little short. Someone brought it to my attention today. The valvetrain is kinda noisy. Im running 7.400" pushrods now and believe the 7.425" is what i should have in there. That would drop the lift from a .581 to .556 (stock 02-04 z06 specs almost) that would be more in line why it made so low on motor and so close to a intake, headers, tuned 02-04 c5z.. I need to order a pushrod length checker and make sure.

^If your local here in Atlanta, I have one you can use to check for the time being.

Edit: One more thing. Going to a longer pushrod is only going to change the amount of preload you have with your lifter. Lift will remain the same as that is in the cam and the rocker ratio, not the pushrod.

if you checked them it should be good, the lift figures i dont think change according to lifter preload as mentioned. nice combo tho

Pushrod length has absolutely no effect on "lift changes". It changes valvetrain geometry, it cannot change something that isn't adjustable. Rockers change lift.
