is it streetable?
what size cam?
what head flow?
whats the potential in a 2800 pound car?
how about t04e's instead of t66's?

I know he's still running the stock aluminum block.

close on the cam, 251/244 under .700 lift
heads can't flow that much, only got a punny 2.020 intake valve

Took motor out to do a forged setup w/ heads and cam. Went w/ billet mains in that one. It spun the 3 middle main bearings w/in 1000 miles. Never had good oil pressure. Got a new block and crank, have been runnning the factory mains and main bearings ever since. That motor went 10.0@143 w/ the 6 speed and 3600 lbs.
Pulled the heads off that motor about 2 years ago, found one piston and one head beat up from plug bits. #6 was notorious for sucking down plugs. a follow up CC on that head showed us why, chamber was 6 cc's smaller than the average. All 8 were all over the map anyway. 6 cc's is HUGE, alot more compression in that hole than expected. Makes sense it ate plugs. Also found 2 cylinder liners cracked at the bottom edge of the water jacket. Closest point to the motor mount bolt holes (running solid mounts at the time)
New block, new piston, added motor plates, converted to solid roller, same crank and rods. New turbo setup, kept 6 speed.
Never made a good pass with it.
took out weight, put in glide, new intake over the winter. Best to date, 8.52 @ 163 on 23 psi.
broke a couple 6 speeds along the way, a 10 bolt, a drive shaft, the hard parts have done quite well.

can this be accomplished with a stock al block and stock crank?
i currently have a 2001 f-body long block with 241 heads?
does anyone know the flow potential for the heads?

He did say he used forged rods..... with a setup like that you would be asking for it if you were using stock rods..... read the whole post he said it on the first page when he broke his setup down
