EXCELLENT set-up and combo of parts BYE RICE

You have your right to post your opinion. I don't think he'd get me. Fadi's car was exceptional. I lost by a car, thats it. I have since beaten 3 other c6 z's so whatever. If you were in the area we could run. Anyways good shot at stirring the pot. STD numbers were low for a 383 in my opinion and would be lower once corrected to SAE. However with the gears he has it should make up for a good bit of power. I bet it pulls like a mack truck.

Comp Cams XFI/XFI lobes
I cant assume that when I pay for something that many consider proprietery that I can just put the numbers out there..So that the next guy doesn't need to pay up for his grind...
But,in retrospect,this is my cam for my setup..your results may vary...
I recommend Pat G's services to anyone putting together an engine from scratch..But to use his service, it puts the emphasis on knowing your numbers(SCR..CC size etc) & not guessing..Otherwise it's "garbage in--garbage out".

Nice numbers. I just put down 497/457 on my 383 with AFR heads and Rons ported 90/90 with a Pat G cam. Our curves look about the same in almost exactly the same conditions. The cam in mine is a 239/244 .651/.612 112+2. I suspect yours is about the same. I only did 465/445 with an LS6 intake and ported TB. But the car ran 127+/ 102+ on street tires in bad air with out being able to shift under power. I have all the bugs worked out now so I will have some new track times soon. The 100* won't help but they will be base line numbers. So there is room to grow on your combo. Don't worry about allngn. Every time some one posts up their numbers he throws his out there to show you his are better with less cubes. But I think his car only ran 121 at the track or somthing like that. Good luck and keep us posted.

No worries..I just wanted to put my #'s out there to see where they fell in line with other guys doing the same thing...& I knew Texas Speed & Pat G would be interested in seeing how their parts performed..& I'm pretty happy myself..With a board this big,their's always someone who might be contentous & wish to input their 2c..No biggie.I don't plan on going toe to toe with anyone from Michigan,unless they plan on going to LSx in Memphis..Then maybe we can work something out.

Like I said, your numbers are great. You won't get much more hp out of the same size bore with a longer stroke. Under the curve is where it is all at. Power that moves your car. I just put mine up there to let you know there is more in it. The car will haul. Just as a comparison, the day I was on the dyno there were two TUNED 06 Z06's that put down 455/432 and 453/435 so in the heat your numbers are great. I am acutally switching over to a TSP 402 to take full advantage of my heads. Those guys are great. Good luck and get some track numbers.
My comment about Allngn was not a slam in any way. It was simply an observation. I don't think he means any harm by it. Just a way of putting out information.

It amazes me that people pick apart my comments. I said great results several times. I just thought he would've made more power. I guess its mainly due to running a smaller cam and having a heavy duty power robbing driveline.
At any rate BYE RICE you have a very strong car, and it appears a well thought out combo. Impressive numbers considering the smallish cam and beefed up rear end with gears. Hope you enjoy the hell out of it. I know I would.
As far as me running 121.6 in the 1/4 with a shitty 12.3 et, lets put out all the info. First time to the track, running street tires, didn't drop the pressure, just getting a feel for the car, hit the rev limiter messing up the run, and shifted early to prevent hitting the rev limiter. 2 hrs between runs doesn't help you get into any kind of rhythm either.
My Nitto 555R Drag Extremes just arrived. I will be headed back to Milan Dragway to post a low/mid 11 second run. The additional traction and the knowledge I picked up from the June shakedown runs should greatly improve my et.
LAST WORDS, congrats BYE RICE on your results. Now get 90 mm FAST ported and see great gains. Good luck, hope to see your car run in the high 10's

As long as it drives well, who cares about the numbers. Good results with a Pat G cam.

This what started all the negative comments about me HMMMM ????
All I wanted to know was his SAE numbers because he made 480+ STD .
Then I am accused of slamming his combo.

Get a few bucks together and have your FAST ported, port the tb as well.
What is your DCR ?? I'll bet after the porting you put down 490 rwhp 470 rwtq SAE.
GOOD LUCK, and in no way did I intend for anyone to interperet my comments as a slam. I know HP doesn't rise much in 383 strokers, but Torque does. Thus the whole reason for stroking.

Looks like you have a nice setup there. It made numbers really close to my 383 setup, which was 486 rwhp 475 rwtq SAE. That car will be a blast to drive on the street with all the extra torque. You will be amazed at how well it pulls in the overdrive gears as well.

It would appear that my #'s are within the margin of error of alot of other 383's here..Which really makes my day..I'm feeling better & better about my choice of cylinder head..
To quote Pat G "The heads are under-valved for a 383".(2.02/1.60)
I have what is considered an economy head compared to a fully aftermarket casting..I have 1100 bucks in my brand new TSP 2.5's..Any shortcomings in the heads appear to have been compensated for in the camshaft...
Good stuff.
Thanks for the replies & the kind words..See ya at the track!

That's god-like IMHO for a 383 w/semi-budget heads through a 12-bolt. If I were you, I'd be doing back flips. Your combo is one I'd like to have in my car!It must feel like a punch in the face when you floor it at idle.

The heads are not too bad though. I know Jason did over 500 rwhp with his 382 on a set of PRC stage 2.5 5.3 heads (2.04,1.57). Like everyone else mentioned the Fast would help big time on this combo. I would also like to see what the uncorrected (raw) numbers were and if you could get them how did the car do SAE. I know most people on this board look at stuff with the SAE correction factor. I would suspect based on the temp and run conditions the car put down a lot less uncorrected and probably slightly less when corrected with SAE.

Sounds good. Just be careful in first that you don't bounce it off the rev limiter. The revs come up so fast if you are spinning vs being hooked. That was the downfall for me on my last trip to the track. Hope you got DRs bro, you will need them. Your car is making a lot of torque and street tires just let go toooo easy.
I got the Nitto 555R Drag Extreme for the track and they hooked unbelievably on the street last night while I was testing them out. Good tire from what I have seen so far. Track results will be posted soon. Can't wait to erase the 12.3 et I posted in June at Milan. LOL.
Good luck at the track bro. You'll do well.
