Thank you and I am a big fan of the Kooks TD. I wish I had them on my first build that I did.

Thank you! I had a black WS6 on my first build. When I was going to do another one I knew that I wanted a SOM. It took me a while to find a stock low mileage but I finally did.

OOOHHHHH so they ended up changing the tips on the kooks setup. when that thing first debuted it had some pretty cheap looking tips at the end. reminded me of what came with the slp exhaust systems cheap single wall stuff.

great thread I was tempted by there exhuast but I just cant let go of the B&B system.
on your discussion about high cubes NA build I have no issues with the 414 as a street car as long as its running right. I have a stage 3+ spec clutch and it feels just as streetable as the GTO even with the huge cam. That said I dont have AC anymore

Looking forward to seeing the numbers after the cam swap...love the car. After I bought my SOM WS6 I found another one on the east coast of Florida I almost purchased that had the same color interior as yours and I loved it. Eventually I will find another SOM with the lighter interior.

Thanks for all the detail on the upgrades. No conjecture with dyno figures to back everything up. All the step by step upgrade information is fantastic. Look forward to seeing where this goes!

I hope to make it to the track tomorrow. It is opening day here. I want to see how much the rear end and 4.10's help. Then I will add the new cam, and repeat. LoL

I wasn't able to make it to the track on Saturday after all. Now I have to work next Saturday, so I may go ahead and do the cam install before I can get back to the track.

Well next week I am going to be installing my blower cam. It is a BTR LS3 supercharged camshaft. It is 227/244 .612/.595 115+5. I will have 1/4 times, dyno numbers when I get it all said and done. I am getting excited to finally get this next part done in my build. I have had to take a while off due to family issues.

If everything keeps going as planned I should have the new numbers by mid week. It sounds real sweet. I hope to have a video of it on the dyno for everyone.

I don't have the graph yet, but will post it when I get it and give all the details. But just got the tune and dyno done on the Beast. Hp went from 328 hp to 386hp. Tq went from 338tq to 362tq. So that is a 59hp increase, and 24tq increase with the BTR LS3 supercharged cam. Way happy with the results. Can't wait to pick it up!

This is the copy that Jessie sent me. You can see the before and after dyno numbers with the BTR cam.
