Just in case your not, Lifting the heads and backing off is no way to tune.
You can do a lot of damage in a very short time lifting the heads.
The escaping localized heated gasses can quite easily warp the heads and/or block deck or worse yet.
We burned a nice notch in a TFS aluminum Ford head in 1 pass with a lifted head under boost.
Head lifted, and hot gasses cut an amazingly smooth notch in the head deck.
Luckily aluminum heads can be welded but that was with an iron block. Sure would put a damper on your day if you notched the block deck also <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> .

To go with that motor, what you really need is that intake manifold thats sitting on top of that supercharged Australian Commodore in the other topic.
Wonder if he made more than one of them.
I forgot, do you still have the GTBB35's?
Oh, and believe me, I'm watching this project with more than just a casual interest.

I'm fully aware that's not the way to tune <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
I figure i have a pretty good handle on the setup, considering how hard I pushed the stock longblock.
But on C16, i'll melt things before i detonate. That stuff rules <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Yes, i'm still on the so-called gt35's. I had them resealed and bearinged recently. They are technically gt25r's, a gt25/gt35 hybrid. details details <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I've got a Holley that's in the middle of port match and runner shortening. I'm going for upper RPM flow with an acceptable loss of low end tuning from runner length.

Out of curiosity, why did you alter the turbos? How did they look after all those hard miles?

I ran the C16 with my turbo and it is great, but make sure you stock up on O2 sensors <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> It fouls them out like there's no tomorrow <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

On the manifold
I've got a Holley that's in the middle of port match and runner shortening. I'm going for upper RPM flow with an acceptable loss of low end tuning from runner length.
I figure i'm more than compensating for the tuning loss w/ boost <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
