Default Texas Speed 228R and LS6 Stage 1 Heads

Thanks to the great guys at Texas Speed I now have a respectable street driver Got a set of PRC Stage 1 LS6 heads (not milled), a TSP 228R 112LSA camshaft, and TSP pushrods. Guys at RPM Motorsports here in North Carolina handled the tuning. Really happy with the results too 416/377. Here is a list of accompanying mod's:

- P.I. 3200 converter (4L60E)
- Dynatech headers with CATs
- SLP Underdrive pulley
- LS6 intake
- Ported stock throttle body
- Stock MAF
- Air lid with K&N
- !EGR and !AIR
- Stock 3.23 rear with 17" TT2s and 315s
- Stock bottom end with 52k on the ODO

Very nice, I'm suprised the HP curve isn't lower in RPMs with that 112LSA, maybe you have to go with a 110LSA to bring it back from the 6k-6.5k area?

Thanks Charles. Not sure if the converter was locked or not, forgot to ask. I don't think the Borla was open though. I dropped it off with the Borla block off plate installed. So it might have shown a little more power with that open.

No, this car won't see any track time. It is just my driver with a stock rear and stock trans. Don't want to start breaking things!

Wow! Great numbers, especially for an auto, with an LS6 intake, stock T/B, a reasonable cam, and only stage one heads... very impressive!

Wow now I am really annoyed with my numbers LOL. Those are good damn numbers for an auto. I have the same heads but milled to 61cc and I'm making less power lol with a 225/229 .580/.590 114+4 LSA cam...........I'm thinking I need to change my cam now lol

Those are great numbers and with a little spray, that would be a wicked *** DD

It's a nice cam. I had a 228r 114lsa, with bolt ons (no UD pulley) with 3:73 and slp intake and PTC 3200 and netted 393/366 with stock 241's on a dynocom thru a 4l60.

Very nice results. I always love to see new 228r combos, its a classic cam that makes great low end torque and carries its power throughout the upper rpm range. Congrats, I bet its a blast to drive, especially with that nice converter.

Great numbers.

I am really, really considering getting back into the mod game.

That set-up has really piqued my interest.

That combo w/ M6 and 4.10s would be crazy fun!!!

Good job Reckless!!!
