New numbers after the intake and cam swap. 456rwhp 404rwtq! I wished I would have milled the heads now. Would have made a little more power

It made about what I was hoping it would. If you didn't have those heavy *** wheels on the back it would have probably broke 460 pretty easily. I'd look into buying a ported 102 setup and ditching the MAF for a SD setup. You should be able to sell the 90mm setup you have now without a problem.

Yea those 17x11 ZR1's are heavy haha. They will be swapped out soon for some drag wheels

How does the SD setup handle climate changes?

I'll probably get the suspension setup before adding more power.

I haven't got the car back yet. I sure wouldn't want to daily drive it with the MS3 in it haha. Car is just a weekend fun car now. I have 66K on the car right now so not a lot of miles.

I would do a leakdown on your motor and if it's good then go ahead and cam her. You'll love it!

Got the motor installed while home on leave from Iraq...but didn't get to drive it due to the rear seal/gasket pouring oil from it...but here's a short vid of my truck running hope to be at Huntsville Drag Strip next year ( only 2 miles down the road from where I grew up.)

Would be a great opportunity to do a basic rebuild. Hone, bearings, lifters, maybe mill the heads...
