Default woot! just ordered tsp 231/237 ,ls6

i was gonna order the 5.3 stage 2 heads, but i decided to go with a bigger cam as well. i ended up going with the 231/237 cam with the stage 2 ls6 59cc heads. i also ordered a ls6 inake manifold, ls6 ported oil pump, and a double rolled adjustable timing chain. i should have it installed in about a week. i plan on getting it dyno tuned at nitro daves in waco. i would go to tsp but lubock is too far of a drive. does anyone have any feedback on nitro daves dyno tuning? any input would be appreciated.
what kind of numbers should i expect to put down? p.s. i will be running through a moser 12bolt.

Nice set up. Good luck with it. With a tune you should be around 440rwhp +or-.

The cam is a nice one. I need some heads to wake my sleeping beast up.

with a 12 bolt rear i doubt you will see anywhere near 440, look for more like 410-420 if that. is it a stick ??? i would guess so with 3.90 gears. Ive heard good things from Nitro Daves.

Through the 12 bolt, look for 420, as mike m mentioned. But, the positive thing is that you'll launch like a bat outta hell.

I have that cam on stock heads and love it. Looking forward to getting the 59cc StgII LS6 styles also.

I think you'll really enjoy that setup.. I know I'm very happy with mine. Be sure to let us know what it puts down thru that 12 bolt. You should be running some killer track times, since you have the rear to hold the power.

Possible, but not probable.
