Default Cubic inch update

I am not very active on here anymore, but for those of you who know me, or don't I wanted to update you.
This particular car, I have tuned on for a few years now. The combination is, or was a SBE LC9 5.3 with stock 799 heads, BTR .660 springs and a BTR PDS stage 4 blower can in it, with a stock lower truck pulley and a 2.35 upper, 2660# 4L80 2600 Yank PDS converter, 9" 3:90.1 rear. Car went a best of 9.23 @ 146 mph at 21# of boost on E.
Over the winter, we built a Summit 402 crank/rods/pistons, stock aluminum 6.0 from a G8, ported rec port heads from Wilkes performance.
I pulled the same tune from last year's best, pulled 5* from 5# up. First pass with a garbage fuel tune it carried the front tires over the wall before the owner got out of it, went 1.35 on the rear tires.
Second pass I pulled timing on the launch, and it went 9.35 on 11# of boost. It lost 10# of boost, less timing, went basically its best 60' on the rear tires. Can't wait to get it dialed in this year!
