MTI Stealth II Cam, .020 Decked LS6 Head = Detonation?
OK, before I start, I know I need to get the car tuned. That being said, does it make sense that I will have low RPM/High load detonation? For example, starting off from a dead stop and part-throttle, quick clutch release? The temperature was in the 80's this weekend and the car just sounded terrible. I have MTI's Stealth II cam, LS6 heads that have been decked .020.
Is detonation what I'm hearing? Will the tune correct this? Will I lose power in the lower rpm ranges?
Thanks!
Brian

See my sig, I have no detonation at all in engine. I also run 92, but that is a given with a moded car. Sounds like your tune could be off, also did you calculate DCR with this cam? What is your static CR? Did this just start all of the sudden? Could be crap gas if that's the case too.

BTW - I grew-up in Kenmore (just north of Buffalo).
