wow!!! litle 88 my combo will never turn 7100 bud. That's really getting it done. Realistic I've believe my motor will be out of steam around 6600 or so.

I will probably go ahead and upgrade lifters since that's my weakest point right now. Purchasing cam and power bind 10% underdrive damper on Friday. That will leave me with needing a clutch and a few other small things to complete the build.

Git the cam purchased and should have it in a few days.

COMP LSR Cam (247/263) .624/.624 114LSA, I'm hoping this motor will morph into a beast.

How's the highway usage? What kind of rpm are you turning in 6th at around 70mph or 80mph.

Why didn't you tell me this build was gonna cost so much lol. Still need clutch, shifter, injectors, hp tuner, and figure out what's wrong with the rear of the car. I'm hoping its all worth the coin in spending in the end.

Sorry really never paid attension to rpm's in 6th gear. Can tell you that it does get decent gas mileage (17-18 Highway). It's the local driving that will kill you (8 at best).
