Hmm, gives me hope. Mine made 400 through a high stalled 400 and in the process of gathering all the 6 speed swap parts.
Congrats man, thats a HUGE difference

Thats funny RJB01camaross i my made 450 rwhp on a dyno with a dynojet conversion of 475 rwhp with stock 799 witch is the same as 243s all bolt ons and a G5x3 cam and you said that I was a little high on the HP have you changed your mind. IF I HAD MY HEADS CNCed RIGHT IT WOULD BE CLOSE TO 500.

I hope you didn't go through all that trouble for a dyno number. I wouldn't have expected anything different with a swap like that from a converter that loose. I wish more people could get thier head around the differences when they try and compare numbers. I actually get a little frustrated with people who buy a bunch of engine goodies on a high stalled car and get butt hurt when they don't make the numbers thier buddy made with an M6. I tell them "take it to the track and you will see the difference" and they say "but.... the other guy...." Sorry for the tirade, congratulation on your set-up. I bet it's fun pulling through the gears.

I have seen 3x C5's with H/C using that cam and 2x F-bodys as well as 3x cam only set ups and neither of the H/C cars got close to 500 lol. Good luck though!!!

That is a big difference, but why did you go from the A4 to the M6? Not just to have better dyno numbers I hope.

That's crazy! Did you ever get to race your car with the A4? It would be cool to see if your shifts with the M6 will be as consistent/fast as the lower A4 horsepower #'s.

I love my C5Z after owning a stalled auto. Shifting is a lot more fun. lol
