Sounds very similar to mine, except the stroke, mine is a 4.100 Eagle
I have about 3 weeks to go only because I have a Solo 2 next week and don't want to take a chance of missing it.
Who is building it for you, if you don't mind me asking? I'm out of Burlington and you can probably guess who is doing mine.
BTW my guess is 505rwhp, thats what I'm kind of hoping for with 500+ft.lbs
Did you do the Morel lifters? If so I stick with my guess. If not I go with the 490.

Wade may be building one for a good friend of mine too. I know Denntech's car went amazing on the weekend. I'm calmly waiting for mine, that 4.100 crank was a real pain to get. I'm not sure if they are officially release, I had to beg with Eagle to get it. I like to be unique, if it works well I won't be for long.
You will make very good numbers I'm sure.

I'm going off memory for mine, but it was like 244-250 XER int. and big block exh. .625 lift and 112-113 LSA with a 1.75 Pro Magnum rocker.
Not sure for RT Stroker, but I know his builder just did one in a big converter Vette that did 485RWHP and went 10.8 this weekend on motor and 9.91 on the bottle. Very nice car.

Don't get too caught up in the peak HP numbers as they do not play the most important role when determining a car's acceleration performance... sometimes a car with a better curve will out run another car that has a higher peak, right Rampant ? 
If my Firebird still has it's little 385CI LS1 in it (assuming it does not grenade like most of ARE's recent motors) it would make for an interesting race against your big 41XCI LS2 once it comes out... by the sounds of it, it should be ready by the end of June?
STROKER R/T, I am sure you will be happy with the results... just don't fall into the dyno wars trap...

Anyway the my car has been very reliable as was yours last year, with the same tuner that did your car last year. Your little 385 may have low miles but it was put through some of the most violent wheels up launches I have ever seen, very cool by the way.
Any way no shop wars here, I'm not getting into it, as you know.
Stroker R/T I look forward to seeing yours and my numbers! My car should be a couple more weeks. At least the motor then the roll bar requirements start

It will see 10.5 and maybe lower this season n/a.
I also predict that the current set up will see mid to low 9's on nitrous this season as well.
Not bad for an everyday street driven car.
LS2 blocks are definitely the way to go...till the LS7 becomes available. You'll know what I mean when you get yours on the road Dale...Amazing!

Rampant, if you really think your 12 second heads and cam Firebird is a match for my 11 second Z28, why don't you just swap your clutch and teach me a lesson once and for all! After all you went through the trouble of installing your NW TB and 90MM LSX just to take me on at drag day... we both know you out power me by 10HP...
Here's the challenge;
You can keep your 90MM LSX and NW TB along with your 15" slicks in back and skinnies up front... I'll run the stock intake and TB along with the 17x9.5" rims up front and 16" slicks in the back... what do you say?
Are you waiting for your LS2 to race me in my heads and cam Z28?

12sec=12.023
Actual difference =0.026sec not a very big victory at different tracks on different days. But I concede that you had the better time, I'm man enough for that.
If you want to pay for the extra labor to swap my clutch out before my engine swap by all means. Other wise I have spent plenty this year and have to use some common sense with how I spend my money. I think mines faster and you think yours is faster, what ever, last year you had the best time slip, but not by much.
Keep your 385 light weight together a couple weeks and we will have a go with the big boys. Until I get booted of the track anyway.
Did you even need to have a roll bar at the last track day?
