600RWHP N/A out of a 402??
Ok, so I know a guy that says he can build a 402 LS1 w/ a Z06 cam and make 600 RWHP N/A this seems like a total bullshit claim to me since guys w/ 402s running fairly aggressive cams seem to only be hitting the 550s. Is this BS or am I missing something.
Sorry , maybe this is the wrong forum , but I'm not really sure where it would fit.

Nope not n/a with that cam.
Assuming a Ls6 with bolt on's is capable of 450bhp SAE Net, then a 402ci running the same state of tune (same cam) should in theory be able to see ~520bhp SAE Net. A good set of heads would make a big difference. So theoretically they may be able to get to 550-560bhp SAE Net with that cam, however I'm willing to bet that it would be unlikely as such setups hardly ever produce the numbers in the real world.
Either way that's still a long long way off 600rwhp.
