wonder why the builder went with 241 heads on a 6L ?

anyway, im at 440/400 wheel with the ms3 cam, 42lb
injectors, fast 92 intake / nw 92mm tb, so you should
be close to that.

With stock 241 heads I'd say maybe around 400-420 depending on the dyno

Oh damn I totally missed the exhaust description lol. I had that exact setup, and with a big cam it was frigging horrible lol. You are right...raspy *** loud is a good description for sure

I know the car sounds great at idle, I'm just wondering how good of a swap he did going to a T56 in an auto car.

Oh yeah the idle and WOT sounds wicked with the LM1 and a big cam, but the part throttle stuff was way too raspy for my liking. Unfortunately part throttle driving constitutes like 90% of time spent in the car lol

How often do people use the stock PCM when they swap 6.0s into F-bodies?
