On my old setup I had the same exact heads and cam as you, but with a LS6 intake. On a really crappy tune it made 405 rwhp on this particular dyno. With a better tune it was probably an honest 420 rwhp on the average Dynojet dyno. I have 4.10's as well
That was through a 6-speed. I never got a chance to run it before the motor blew. So now I have the same heads but with a bigger cam and more compression on a 370ci LQ9. 90 mph for the mods you have and being full weight is pretty good. Those heads alone are probably worth 30-40 hp on average
Thanks i hope i can get a 30hp to 40 would be good plus what ever i get on top with the fast 90 i want to get the car to do some 7.0 or 6.9 on motor but will see then ill throw some spray
A Fast 90 will probably get you another 10-15 hp over the LS6. With those heads, better gearing, and some weight reduction a 6.9 is very doable. Shouldn't need spray
Hopefully not sure if i want to do 3.90 or 4.11 im doing weight reduction but the only thing im doing to interior is remvoing carpet and going with a lighter carpet

Verdad Gallardo So doing lighter carpet alone will will get you down to 3200 lbs? If this is mainly a street car i'd personally go with the 3.90's, but if it mainly sees the track then 4.11's. That's just my opinion
Well my job not far from work i spend around 20 bucks a gas a week so that tells u how far it is lol and thats what i wanted to do was the 3.90 never done weight reduction but this is my first time so ill see how much it will weight in lol
search for prc as cast heads. Sounds like a good head only thing I dont like is that they are 6 bolt. Wont affect anything but I am weird like that and it would drive me nuts with the empty bolt hole.
I went with the 3.90and love it.. Also my set up threw down 424rwhp with stock fuel pump failing.. Getting upgraded fuel pump this weekend an back to dyno. Hoping to get another 10-20rwhp with bigger fuel pump.
Thanks nathan i found some good threads and they make some pretty good power and fo 100 more they flow better than the 2.5 ls6 so with my cam might make some good power
