I got my LT4 conversion to 11.96 and 11.17 on the 100 shot.
3500 race weight, Heads had bowl work and larger valves. Alot of tuning and Th350 swap with a 3500 Vig stall, which i believe was too big, should have been in the 2800-3k range....
But I had over $2k in the heads, just think what that same money woudl have got me with Advanced Induction.....

There are b-bodies running 12 on their stock iron heads and stock smaller than f-body cams so your point is what?

The LT4 package may have been good 5+ years ago, today there are many much better ways to make power like more power for less money.
