Default The new setup!

Hi everyone, i have just made my final decisions regarding my setup;

370ci low compression Iron shortblock
12-14psi From D1SC + intercooler
patriot stage 3 lq9 heads
237/242 .603/.609 115LSA cam
Stock ls6 intake
LT headers + true dual 3 in exhaust
93 octane tune

What should i expect as far as power at the rear?
What size injectors should i purchase?
Any recommendations regarding anything?
Thankyou for your time!

600rw with stock heads with 10psi seems a little steep to say the least....you should be about 650rw tho....that cam is pretty big imo....but should be badass nonetheless!

I'd probably go a little smaller on the cam. With a 224/224 114LSA cam and 15-17#'s boost you should have 650RWHP on pump gas and great driveability. (If compression is at 8.0:1 or thereabouts and you have an awesome tuner)

Cheers,
Chris

aye yaye yaye, go with an aluminum ls2 block that Goat is heavy enough as it is. plus your underhood temps are gonna get real hot with an iron block. iat's are bad enough as it is with aluminum blocks with the computer pulling timing.

cam is WAY too big and will idle like ****.
