u made more power than me, whats the lift on the cam??? it looks like its the Torqer v2,

get a pulley, fast90/90, and u should be in the 450-460whp range, u could also up the comp. by using a thinner head gasket

Are you chasing numbers for any reason? what part of aus you from?

Bigger manifold/throttle and extractors will get you more power, i think you'll see mid 450s with a retune. Nathan Higgins is the man to see he will point you in the right direction.

You already answered your own question. Get a FAST and port match it to the heads.

If were talking the harrop with individual throttle bodies, then its deffinatly the better choice.

Youll will see a nice gain in going from the FAST intake from the LS1 intake, but the harrop is still the best choice assuming you can get your hands on one.

What gears are you running? I would hit up some shorter gears if you wanted a car that felt faster.

Fast 90/90 will get you a good 20rwhp if properly tuned.
