Nice build looks and sounds great. Speed is a great shop to deal with they have always taking care of me. BTW I have seen 1mph gain with my cut outs open.

good results. It makes it easy when customers go the extra mile and get everything needed to make my heads/cam look good.

If the S60 (9 3/4 ring gear) has a big heavy poosi unit in it, we could lose 25 HP or so. If it has a light weight spool, maybe only lose 15 HP over stock.

Larry probably has a better idea about what kinda loss there is from the rear end swap but there is DEFINITELY some power to be gained with a cut out right before the rear end. 3" true duals would be even better but cost about $400 and have less ground clearance.

I would say 20ish is a good guess Lloyd. We seen 14 rwhp loss when I went from a 3.42 to a 3.90 in my 02 Z06 before.

so figuring in the S60 with a 4.10 + the CM DS over the alum shaft removed will eat some power

then add the cutout which we could see 5-10+ HP

I think you would still be 390-400 after the S60 + cutout.

You won't be the guy oiling down the track, you'll be the guy making
spectacular launches and pissing off everyone who is babysitting a 10bolt LOL

Your clutch is going to hate you

To satisfy board curiosity, would you be willing to run a few more dynos to compare
10bolt to S60 and before cutout to cutout open/closed?
