Thats pretty good. I'm gonna be running a stock LS1 intake on my LQ4 along with a set of long tube headers. Still undecided on what cam so I may just have one spec'd out. I'm gonna be using a 4L80e so I know itll loose some power on that end but I'll be happy with it.

I am currently doing a rebuild with .050 milled 317 heads and a 223/231 cam. I could care less about hp I just hope to lower my track times.

mods are in my sig with dyno #s from that setup.Im currently swapping to 243 heads for some compression and retune hoping to pickup some power but I know stock manifolds are really holding me back as is.

Those are some pretty nice numbers. Does it feel sluggish in low rpm? I'm currently doing a stock 317 head setup but my cam will be 224/228 on 110 Lsa 106 icl I haven't decided what lobes yet. Hoping the 110 Lsa and 106 icl will bring power band down some. Seems like it would work well comparing it with yours I will also have headers and cutouts
