I'm curious about this as well..

Strong running car...

Dyno numbers don't mean **** on stalled autos...

My 71' only chasis dynos 460rwhp, yet runs 127-128 mph at 3700lbs..... Do that math on the ricer dyno calculator..

You need to go FI man.. the blown LS2 Vette I know is a pretty nasty car. Mean as hell sounding too. I don't think you will regret it.. throw a forged bottom end in it, and an ECS 2200 kit w/ meth.. and nom nom nom on the highway.

Thanks for thoroughly convincing me to go FI 1bad06 lol. 14psi is pushing that stock bottom end ls2 to the limit I'm sure though. Looks like I'll need to get my 6l80 built by century or someone while I put this ECS1500 on my car.
