It's definitely not the norm, but rob, blue98sscamaro made 455 in his cam only ls6 and studderin made around 450 as well in a cam only ls1. I'd be more concerned with the time clocks instead of a dynamometer. Especially the dynamometer results of the exceptions, not the average.
Am I the only one around here who cares about running a good e.t.? Screw dyno numbers.

I don't dislike your comment, you look like a fool when you talk to people and disqualify their cars because your car has more OEM **** on it. Motor swapped and hacked up OEM ****, but still OEM ****. Mine has OEM block, pistons, rods, crank, intake, transmission, rear, suspension. It's just a little 302, pay it no mind, but I thought I'd tell you how it has about as many OEM parts as yours does. The difference is mine wouldn't look like a piece of paper upon impact if I wrecked. So what you're saying is, you have aftermarket parts in your car, Heater does in his car, and his car is faster.
Did I sum it up about right?
Why would I pay your little 302 any mind?? You won't even be on solid bolt-on ls1 territory.
How come no oe heads?? hhhmmmm I think we know. I like oe parts. They seem to serve me well.
How much you gonna cry when my bolt-on ls7 traps between 135-140?
What I'm saying is, for me to build a car/engine combo(bored/stoked/weight) comparable to Heater's with ls stuff I would've had to of fucked up to make it only run ~10.0's.

If you think a pos fox chassis is gonna hold up any where near as good as a f-car on a impact you are completely delusional. The seat alone would fall you around. The torque boxes break/crack w/o much force and I think my Notch is about the only one left with a straight core support. It's tied as good as it gets w/o a cage and the body gaps still change when you pick it up on a 2 post lift. Why would I pay your little 302 any mind??

Thank you for making yourself look even dumber after we all know you run multiple non-OEM parts on your deathtrap and then say that OE parts serve you well.
I'm sure your 427 will be impressive in the same deathtrap chassis you're driving around in, have fun when a valve drops! Just continue to ignore that and call it an "oiling issue" after guys have addressed the oiling issue and still had valve guide problems lead to engine failure.
I didn't build my coupe to race, just to be a nice dd with more power than people expect from a 28 year old fox. I love the style of coupes and the SBF is the best sounding motor on Earth, I'm fine with not trying to set the world on fire with ET's.
Don't you have some more door supports to remove? Hood hinges to drill?

yea bro! bc more cams > more displacement any day! 
the 5.0 is mine. it went 12.01@116 sunday on a shitty 1.84 60' and bias plys out back, has trapped 118 at a slightly better elevation track, big n littles and more aggressive trans tune than what's in it right now. i just find it funny how many of you guys think he should have put bus lengths on me. logic kills you guys apparently. if you'd care to know i've ran my dads bone stock 02 c5z before the xpipe and we were side by side run after run. i toyed around with a stock c7 the other day too, but yalls head would explode if i even said i hung with him
