Curious about my combo
Ok, let me know where you guys think this should be power wise. I havent got a dyno tune yet. And it'll probably be a little while before I do. Although this combo has been together & daily driven for 80k miles. Before anyone screams I monitor it best I can with a Aeroforce gauge for knock/coolant temps & what not. So far I havent had a single issue with it. I got one pass with this combo in the 80k miles its been together & I spun through 3rd gear on street tires but it still got a 114mph trap. So its gotta be a good little combo.
Anyway, here is the set-up, give me your opinion of where I'm at. This summer I'm plannin also to toss in some 3.73's in place of the stock 3.42's to help get into the power a little quicker.
stock bottom end
Bo White port/polished & milled .018" 5.3L heads W/Patriot Gold duals
Bo White port/polished TB
Comp 224/224 .581/.581 114
MTI lid
stock MAF
Ls6 intake
stock injectors
Pacesetter 1 3/4" LT's
TSP ORY
Hooker muffler
I'm thinkin with a good tune it should be in the 400-420 range. At least thats my hopes. Only thing I really have to gauge it off is a few races from a roll & that trap speed after spinning half way down the track, so I'm lookin for others opinions.

Thats close that what I'm guessing. I'm thinking about adding a 85mm Z06 MAF to it as well. Other than that the only other thing I can think of off the top of my head to max this combo would be a under drive pulley & I'd rather not even mess with that but I might if I find one for the right price.
Also thinking about swappin out my Pacesetters/old TSP ORY for the BBK system. My current LT's are really starting to rust where all the primaries merge together into the collector. Really cant complain though, it was daily driven in all elements for 5yrs with them on there. So I got my moneys worth.
