Default Another EPS/243 combo

Got my LS6 longblock with stock untouched 243's in a few months ago from SDPC. Then made the call to Geoff @ EPS, and got the ball rolling. PatG speced me a custom 234/238 cam. Ordered it threw Geoff, and buttoned everything up and strapped it down today.

427rwhp
390rwtq

Still has LS6 intake and is a SS4000 stalled A4. Im happy with numbers myself. Gained 40rwhp over old 230/230,853 head combo. Hoping for low 11's!!!

Have you though about a fast or better even maybe a tpis 90mm intake? I'm putting one on my bolt on ls6 soon. Hope to get maybe 10/10+ hp and tq at wheels. You would get more prob cause of your cam.
