Wow.
WOW.
Is it safe to say those heads are beating out 243s and 799s.? Would u be making less if running those instead? I keep seeing awesome figures with them but yet their flow numbers posted seems to show less airflow than bigger heads. Must be the old jedi air velocity trick. Who's cam?

.609 in the intake and .592 on the exhaust. It's an xfi/xer lobed cam.

The da for my last runs was 475 feet. Yes that is correct. I ran the time in my sig with an ls1 intake and the da at the time of that run was around -350 feet. At that time I had an mn6 geared trans and I know have an mn12. I'm wondering if the large rpm drop on the 3-4 shift of the mn12 is hurting me.

I was thinking the same thing. A stock C5 Z06 traps 115-117 and I am making a good bit more power.
I have to be making close to that because I only lost by a couple lengths to my friends cammed 100 shot C5. There has to be something wrong with my car costing me power. To gain only 1 mph with similar DA going from an LS6 intake to a mamo ported fast 102 something isn't right.

My 02 Z06 went 11.84 @ 115.20 on a 1.78 60 ft and has trapped as high as 116 mph. This is with only a cold air intake & drag radials.
I think with some perfected launching & shifting you will pick up a couple of mph on the trap speed. You need to get the car launched properly and get the shifting speed quickened up to keep the revs up. Takes a lot of practice to get a 6spd Vette down the 1/4 mile, they are not the easiest cars to launch at the track

I agree with hiossilver and fastfatboy; you should be trapping upper 120's mph with a true 464 rwhp especially in a light C5.
IF it is bad shifting/driver error it would have to be some seriously LONG granny shifts to be losing 8-10 mph in the trap speed.

The track does not.
At the time the car ran it was making 400whp (ish).
Mph is a power indicator, it's not making the claimed power.

Didn't really look at your mods; only 1/4 results and dyno.
You're not gonna pick up more than 10 rwhp on your setup going from an LS6 to the ported 102 IMO.
FIRST: you don't have the cubes for that intake.
SECOND: that's a small cam and odd head mix for the dyno result.
I'd actually expect your 1/4 result and trap speed given your cam size and head selection; again, the intake isn't giving you much with small cubes, those heads, and a small cam.
In conclusion I'd say the dyno was very generous. Be happy with your results though.
Definitely in line for your setup, platform, and race weight.

The car probably doesnt make 465 but i will say it does probably make around 430. Those are decent heads and the 224r is tried and true. A biger cam would compliment the heads nicely. He's def making more than 400 though or at least should be. I still think the car should be trapping at least 4-5 mph faster
