331"
Trick Flow heads (not CNC, but not a huge difference)
near identical 224/232 cam
Trick Flow R intake
long tube headers

You made more power at the wheels than they did at the crank?
Here is my old dyno sheet on the tuner's website



That was with the N91 camshaft and everything else the same.

Here is the new one and the old one together. Nothing changed except the camshaft.




Anymore questions Marc?

Thats all I got for now. I was thinking about going and making a WOT video through some gears but not sure where I could go for that.

Twisted Wedge heads? Sounds sexy. Like the old Hemi motors. I use cheap old regular heads and use boost to make up for it.

Hey I have a lot of respect for the NA cars also. It's just so difficult to get big HP NA that I just went the Turbo route. Look at all the stuff I have to put under my hood! Makes me crazy when I have to take it all apart to get to something.

That is one jam packed engine bay! I don't see how you keep the intake pipe on the throttle body.

Ahhh it's a line lock. I don't really need it since the 6-speed was replaced 2 years ago by a more reliable TH400 but it does help on the burnout since I'm not forcing the aftermarket brakes on the rear to get overheated. I guess I should remove the cruise control but it weighs nothing and I use it sometimes on the hwy.

There's a small welded edge on the pipe and the throttlebody. I've actually tested the holding power past 25PSI but It would probably blow apart past 30PSI. Even with the violence of the motor on the launch it doesn't come apart. Let me tell you 25PSI on this motor makes me nauseous on the launch so I know it's pulling hard escpecially since I don't use solid motor mounts. This year 23PSI will be my new standard race mode level. I want the motor to live without pushing water and with my cheap *** heads with 4 bolts per cylinder I dare not go beyond that otherwise I'm ordering loads of head gaskets and tearing the heads off after every race day.

I've never been a fan of the S97 non-NewEdge look. I guess it's because everyone around here with one either puts some lame-*** body kit on it, or puts the clear tail-light shiz on it. Stopsign's is one of the few, really clean and fast looking GTs from that era I like. I am sure it's a blast simply because it's such a freakin sleeper. Well, except for the sound of it. Not a huge fan of cowl hoods, but that is a tasteful one. That is one bad-assed car. I've always thought those cars were too "round" or "bubbly" but whatever you did to it changed that aspect of it.
Just curious, how much do you have in it all together? Car included. When did you buy the car?
