Sounds very sick man.

with your setup I'm thinking 430-440rwhp Max but with good set of heads and ported 92/92 setup then 480+rwhp.

I think 470 rwhp is going to be really pushing it, even with ls6 heads.

Good luck though. I say get yourself some TFS 215's or Tony Mamo massaged AFR 205's and make a run at 500 rwhp. You'll also need a ported 90 combo if you can find one, or get the new 92 Fast and have it ported and matched to a larger tb. Tony at AFR or Ron at Vengeance both do excellent work. They could help if/and when the time comes.

20.5* overlap will do that. i don't want to hate on your exhaust, but it sounds like you could've saved some money simply be extending the pipes out the back with no mufflers, that mfer is raspy as hell. i'm not a fan of rasp, especially on a vette, but to each his own. cam sounds good. you custom order that from tsp on a 110+4 lsa? no flycutting?

Had the exhaust before the cam, bought the cam used. not sure yet if its a +4 or +1 will have to call them today before the tuner gets it saturday.

As for exhaust however, I had SLP loudmouths before the LT's. Loved the sound but HATED the drone. These are primarily quiet ( if you can call them that ) at idle, and loude as hell when ya get on it. The bonus however......NO DRONE
