stock 5.3 cam intake 13lbs 633whp borg s475 New to this forum and I was trying to see what other people are making for hp and what time they are running. I swapped a 5.3 into my 69 firebird. All stock at 13 lbs at made 548whp....thru a zo6 cam into it and it made 587whp at 13lbs. Did a comp cam and pro flow intake and it made 633whp at 13. Ran it in the quater mile on 275 et streets at 16lbs and got it to go 9.98 at 137 the car weighs 3600lbs with me in it. Figured its making about 710 at 16lbs. Wanted to eun 18lbs but the wastegate blew open at 16

What year/vin 5.3? Pump gas?
Good numbers. Cam and intake are working well. Not sure how we can say the s475 is doing the work at those boost levels though. Crank the boost to 25... then it will do some work. Mine really woke up at 20+. Gained 4mph in the 1/8 and 3mph in the 1/4 going from 20 to 24lbs (23.8 technically) and that was on the baby 83mm wheel and 1.10 T4.

^^^agreed the BW turbos do LOVE higher boost especially those with the extended tip design. Great numbers either way, hope to pull some similar numbers with my setup when complete and then crank her up to 20 lbs. on meth when I lift my skirt up lol.

Hey, welcome. I know your car, and Justin. I'm Ron with the yellow C5 vette and the blue 69 nova.
Nice job on the 9.9 and the boot at Woodburn. Too bad you weren't out last night, track was good and Pete wasn't watching the ET's. :-)
We'd will be the last shot this year. Otherwise, see you next year. Hope to have my 5.3 up and running
