Love the idea of the ram air. So what did it run?

 

sillysspeed,


Ryan ran a 10.33 @ 131 while maintaining SBE. With the above mentioned setup SO FAR, he has been 10.08 @ 134. He is still running the original Frankenstein Stage 1 LS3 heads as well!

Very cool! That is hauling for a 5th gen SBE.

 

Stock bottom end?
I think the title of your post is misleading. You didn't mention a single thing about his stock bottom end or what he has done with it.

 

JoeNova,


My apologies JoeNova, I should have been more specific. Ryan's quickest SBE pass was 10.33 @ 131 mph. VVT cam equipped, bolt-ons, ported Frankenstein LS3 heads, ported intake, gears, and converter.


His NEW setup is what is mentioned above, which has now gone 10.08 @ 134.

Ryan's car is awesome. He speced the cam in my car.

 

That GPI / Frankenstein combo is a beast!
