I was just curious why you'd go with those heads when the LS3/L92's perform so well. You're obviously making some nice power with the 132mph trap, so it looks like you've got a nice combo.

I know these guys personally, and he's not bullshitting you, lol. The car makes gobs of power, and it is a LS3 based 427 w/ ls6 heads. I've seen the dyno graphs, timeslips, and I had ridden in the car. It's a sick build.

we never really broke any rules. they booted us for an 11.59 pass at 94 mph. i say "booted" the exact words were " take the car to tech or park it!" i tried to argue but no use.

The roll cage is in now, the only issue is i think we will be booted for over 135 mph this time. I refuse to install a halo in my daily driver.
