Well the term cam only is being used a little loosely here, it is an LS6 headed car, stock LS6 heads yes but still LS6 heads.
It would be a true cam only car if it were a Z06 but it's an F-body.
And yes we all know that stock LS6 heads don't give ya all that much over stock LS1 heads so I will be the first to agree (as I have in the past) that Michael 4034's car IS damn fast/impressive for it's weight so this is in NO WAY meant as a way to discredit or disclaim the awesome accomplishment as otherwise.
It's just that I (as are many people) am a stickler for the various categories/labels (ie: cam only...heads and cam...stroker etc.) that we all use in this hobby.

Then it can't be Pete's, his car went 10.6.

It sure does sound like Pete's set up with that TPIS LS6 intake and oval TB though.

With the owner driving...

But could this be the same set up that went 10.69 with me driving?

This is why its better to not let everything go public. As seen above the peanut gallery already has their comments and excuses as to why we are inferior.

Seems like another round of Shop Wars here we come...

Your setups are making buku power Matt.

Thats a bold statement... BUT, if this combo doesn't go faster for whatever reason, you have A LOT of explaining to do!

You are 100% correct Mike. I have that much faith in the combination that it will be going faster.

The first shakedown passes will be at the track rental. I'm not guaranteeing any records there but we would like to put on a stout performance.
