Totally unrelated but just had a customer go into the 9s with his DAILY DRIVER CTSV.
The interesting part is, STOCK TRANS AND CONVERTER.

4500 race weight. We are going to try to tweak her a bit to get 9.50s while the weather lasts.
He went 1.49 to 60' and the shifting needed a bit more line pressure. We could have got about a 9.75 er so on that pass.

Thank you Sir. The heads are out right and doing a VERY similar build to the red car just changing a few things. Also doing a built LS7 with spray and we look forward to seeing what she'll do.
We have a playlist on youtube I hope is comes up right.

Jeremy,
Consider strongly taking Tooley's advice on the PM guides and solid valves. If you can get the reliability of the valvetrain to approach the driveability goodness, you might be able to make this a lasting endeavor. The dealerships will be very sensitive to service issues that may pop up later, especially if the customer ends up putting miles on the car. If that happens, it could hurt your reputation down the road. No matter how much it is pounded into customer communications, most customers expect stock reliability, regardless of the power output or what they say at time of sale. If you can get at least 50k out of a set of springs and have some sort of service plan for performance related issues, that will go a long way for you. I'm sure you've thought of it, but the dealership tune and driveability guys won't even touch the car with that package. A SES/CEL/MIL pops on and they will throw hands up and point fingers because they won't want their CSI hurt and won't want to spend time trying to fix something that GM won't pay them OLH for. Just plan for all this stuff accordingly as a lot of folks, including me, would like to see you make a long term success out of this.
Good luck!
Jason
