The Final Combination; 414" Solid Roller
Looks like the combination is all worked out though:
6.0L block bored .060
Lunati 4.00" stroke crank
Diamond Custom Pistons, Valve Reliefs, Shallow Dish ( 11.7-11.8:1 CR)
ARE Stage 3 heads reworked by Flow-Tech (local)
Lentz 6.125 connecting rods, Bushed floating pin
Thunder 248/248 113lsa .630 lift sollid roller Cam
Crane Lifters
T&D Shaft mount Rocker arms
C5R Valve Covers (I have spacers just in case)
Holley intake manifold
Lucas 38lb injectors
Roll-Mast double roller timing chain
ATI Super Dampener
1 7/8th Long tube headers (QTP or Thunder)
Ported/Shimmed oil pump
Tranny is going to either be a Manual 4L60e or a TH400 (still working on that)
So, sound like fun?
I am hoping for a solid 10.5-10.8 on the motor.
What do you guys think?

1) You can go bigger on the cam still. Trust me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
2) On the Holley intake, I have not seen anyone post flow increase results as a result of porting it to match the heads? Maybe they are out there, but I have not seen them yet. Maybe a custom sheet metal intake??

So, I don't think it will be that big of a slouch. The cam should be pretty tame as far as driving the car around.
As far as the intake goes, if somebody wants to sell me a sheet metal FMS intake for say, $550. Then I'll buy it! But the ability to port match the intake runners and a few other perks, for under $2K.... Holley it is.

Or, better yet, ship the heads down here, we'll flow them, and then pick a cam out that best matches the heads.

As far as a light car goes, I am trying. But I am keeping the AC and power rack. Its still a fully optioned car. I did drop in a nice light weight K-member and A-arms to help counter the Iron Block...
We'll see!

s with this combo.I say with the right converter match and gears, you will see 10.0 all day long! I get my MTI 427 6.0 liter 4.060 overbore and 4.125 crank motor back from MTI in my C5 in about 1 month. I am going with the battle tested MTI S1 hyd. cam and expect high 10s with that set up and around 480rwhp thru my A4 I AM PUMPED!!!! If i went solid roller i know i could shave a solid .5 off of those ets but i had to draw the line some where with my budget, etc. and since the car will see the street more than the track.
GOOD LUCK!
