Mike,
my goal all along has been 450/400....I know with the heads and cam and full bolt ons/exhaust guys are putting down solid numbers, somewhere around the 430-440 HP mark and are CLOSE to 400 ft lbs with the MS3...im hoping my EWP and the 90/90 will put me over the top close to my goal on the dyno...I chose the 5.3 heads for a little more grunt down low and a bump in compression slightly...im hoping all that helps as well
I do know that my 4.10's will cause some loss, but I will take it for what its worth!! We shall see-- FWIW she sure does feel fast, even with a mail order!!!

Formato, HERE I COME!! haha

ya it should definatly ride out. I am more interested in the TQ than the HP. It should be pretty close to 450 range.

Eric what do you have? Looks like 5.3 TSP heads with a MS3, 90/90, EWP, UD Pulley, etc. I gathered most of it but not sure on the UDP or whos heads they are.
450 will be the highest 5.3 headed car I am seen on our dyno and one of the higher GM casting headed cars.
Hopefully we will get you there.

This just makes me want to throw a set of heads with a 90/90 set up on.

Congrats on the numbers
