That thing would be even more sick with some Stage 3 LS6 heads, and more tuning <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
I can shift faster than you.

Here is the dyno graph:
The blue is with the dynatech stepped headers and red is with the TTS longtubes.

Well, after putting about 100 miles on the car in the last 2 days, we strapped it down to the dyno for some preliminary numbers before tuning...
The results:
507RWHP 472RWTQ
Needless to say I was seriously stoked!
The conditions for the run are as follows:
Temp 96*F
Stock rear and tires
Open headers
No tuning other than rev limiter and injector sizing.
A/F was all over the board so I think it may have something left on the table...
RWHP was over 500 from 5900 to 6700
RWTQ was over 400 from 3000 to 6600
This is with LS1 heads and stock LS6 intake with TTS longtubes.
Graph will be forthcoming when Jason has a chance to scan it.
Thanks THUNDER Racing!!! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
Its more than I had ever hoped for!

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Congrats man! I'm sure once you get the A/F leveled out, you'll make a a few more hp! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Man, that is just frickin' sick! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Shane, I know you are stoked <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Now, hurry up and finish dynoing that thing! You guys are rattling the windows in my office!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

awesome a low peaking curve from a solid roller 409! just wondering why didnt you go with a 422 or similar big bore/stroke size like others have done in the past? i assume this is all on forged internals.
in any event, that is amazing! it really sucks we have to be limited to these LS6 intakes! imagine what that would do with a big intake! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
