800? 850? What’s your goal?

 

OH hell Pete.. It won't make that much in it's dreams 😂😂

Idk, I think it would make over 600, lesa than 650 wheel.

 

A guy can dream….

 

Realistically, I think it will make at least 700 flywheel. No more than 740 flywheel though. So since Vettes usually lose about 13% it seems, that puts me anywhere from 600-650ish.

I have compared this motor to a number of other combos and it seems on par. Also comparing it to my desktop dyno numbers, which were pretty spot on for @jayyyw

 

Another Update. Air Pan is finished. I believe my guy added welded caps to cover the linkages to seal it up more. Also got the exhaust done.

 

I was gone for a couple weeks for work, in the meantime, the guys at the shop got a couple things buttoned up. Car is now ready for paint so hoping that is wrapped up in the next couple weeks.

Got the caps to cover the linkage protrusions in the air pan welded on so the thing is sealed up from the engine bay. Got the exhaust turn down cut at a 45 angle so more noise will go back towards the rear of the car compared to straight down. Got the catch can that @jayyyw made for me installed in the rear. Also bent the one AC line up a bit in the engine bay so it wasn't squeezed between the header primary and frame rail.

 

Looking good! Ready to see this thing eat.

 

Me too man.. Me too.

 

Nice looking air pan.

 

Thank you sir. I am very happy with it. I think it should perform well.
