Tick built 347, stock 241's, stock LS6 intake, T-trim@14psi=700rwhp Thought I'd share this little motor we put together for a customer of ours. This was a budget build where we tried to save as much cost as possible, with out going cheap on the stuff that counts.
This is a C5 Corvette convertible and is a very nice, clean car for how old it is. This customer of ours also has 2 other brothers that we built cars for, and now they're already planning their own upgrades to keep up with him! LOL!
Breakdown of parts on the car:
LS6 block bored .005 over
Stock LS6 crank
Scat H-beam rods with ARP 2000 bolts
Wiseco -12cc pistons 3.903" bore steel top ring yields 9.6:1 compression
ARP Main studs
ACL main bearings
Clevite rod bearings
Durabond cam bearings
ARP head studs
LS9 gaskets
Stock 241 heads with valve job milled to 61cc
Tick Performance custom centrifugal blower cam 234/242 .612"/.592" 114lsa
A&A 8-rib C5 supercharger kit with Vortech T-trim blower@14psi
Innovator's West 8-rib balancer
ATI crankshaft pin kit
Kooks 1.875" headers and Kooks ORX
Factory 2.5" cat-back
93 octane pump gas no methanol injection
Lonnies dual in tank fuel pumps
Siemens Deka 60lb injectors and they are MAXED out!
Stock fuel lines
The T-trim is pretty much a D1SC FWIW.

Dyno wide band is in the tail pipe and is .7-.9 leaner than the NGK AFX wide band we use for data logging and tuning VE. Seeing 11.6-11.8 WOT for fueling.
14-15 degrees timing.
LS7 clutch. Needs to be upgraded for sure.
I agree about the turbo, but the cam is too large and too overlap heavy to work well.

He's happy with 700.....for now.
I'll run a race car on C16 that lean, but not on pump gas.
If anything, it will get more boost later on.
