I'd love to hear the details of your setup that made 474 rwhp with a LS6 intake and that cam. Most guys with bad *** TFS heads, a FAST intake and a big *** cam don't make those numbers.

So it made that HP N/A or on the nitrous? Are you going to run the same cam with this setup? I know they don't list the specs, but do you have any idea the size?

It should work well with those heads. Not sure if I ever saw concrete specs on that cam, but it is pretty large. How is the drivability? I think that a Super Victor and 4150 TB would put you right at your HP goal.

I've seen people keep at least the drivers side wiper, but the majority I've seen weren't able to keep them. I was actually reading a post yesterday of a guy who was able to keep both wipers. He was saying that it was very tedious cutting the cowl carefully, but it can be done.

I thought I saw we're you're running the x6 cam.

You would be right if he bought the CNC'd TFS heads. They are pretty damn expensive. One thing that is really cool about the TFS as cast heads is that you ca. Get Brian Tooley to hand port them for not a whole lot extra.
