Dan that is very very impressive. You must be thrilled with those numbers. Do you plan on racing at the track with those Nittos? Those tires are gonna be a joke with the amount of power you're making.

Cartek LS6 Stage II Heads and Cam Results are in!!!!
Well, Well...
Finally I have some results for you after 5 weeks of hell waiting for my car to get finished up at Cartek. They were waiting on some parts that were backordered over the holidays. But they came in, and Dave and Julio worked their magic on my car.
There is still a little more tuning to do, but here are last nights numbers for you.
The car is putting down:
437.8 RWHP and 401 Pounds of Torque. All SAE Corrected.. I will have pictures of the Dynos up early next week <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
Julio is working on it again today to tune it a little more in hopes of squeezing out 440 RWHP.
I should be picking up my car late tonight or early Saturday morning assuming the nitrous kit gets finished.
I will have Nitrous numbers for you all as soon as it is all wrapped up and tuned.
Thanks for being patient, and I will see you all at the track when they open up..
Dan

Re: Cartek LS6 Stage II Heads and Cam Results are in!!!!
Thats the stock bottom end. I am running a little over 11.2:1 compression in the engine, and had the intake and throttlebody ported.
The cost was a package deal, so I will have to wait to get my bill so see it itemized. But it was around $1000-1200 more for the LS6 heads since I had to buy them, but I could be a little off in the guesstimation of the cost difference. I dropped my car off a while ago and am a little rusty on the price in my mind as to how it all broke down. But it was worth if for me, and I am happy with the results.

Hey Dan, I think you car was at Cartek on Dec. 26th when I had my car dyno'd??? Awesome car if it was!!! Those guys really know their stuff!!! With NOS your car should be one of the fastest street legal f-bodies out there!!! <img src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" border="0" alt="[hail]" />
I am having a tame cam and ZO6 intake put on in the spring by cartek. Any way awsome #'s, and best of luck with your car!!!

Y2YDT,
Yep that was my car there on the 26th of December. They had finished the engine work at that time but didn't have the intake and the throttle body done at that time. So it was pulling around 422 RWHP then.
But now it is all together with and tuned. I am hoping that they can squeeze out a few more HP to break the 440 mark with just the engine.
I lowered my Nitrous shot down to 100 because I will already have lots of traction issues and didn't want to run the 150 until I get used to it.
Thanks for the nice feedback.

Re: Cartek LS6 Stage II Heads and Cam Results are in!!!!
Dan, glad you are happy with the combination!
When you get it back in the shop we can do the final tuning. We might get it to the 440 mark.
