1/4 if I wanted the others it would have twin billet 80's in the rear and a 2.10 400 9" setup..

What sheet metal intake? Stock hood or are you going with a cowl hood or just going to cut the hood.
Bingo.. I think I could've gone 9.50's with the H/C/I setup if I would've had time.. Still regret not going for it.. This time I'm all in and not playing..

My Marcella ports wouldn't come close on the new heads.. Frankenstein is doing the new heads and intake.. LME is doing the bottom end.. Will be a tall deck RHS 4.5" magnum crank, Callie's ultra billet rods, wiseco pistons, ARE pan, solid roller, stainless shaft mounts, etc etc etc.. Still going high comp 13.5:1 and sticking with E85.. They're thinking it'll make 850-900 hp..

Well, I think most will agree you got the easy part out of the way.

Fastest, I have been 214.8mph and 215mph at the Texas Mile last year, With a 6speed, Although I only used 5 gears.

My first mile pull now at summer was 210.65 mph.

I'm guessing he's going to run the new billet one LME is making, but just guessing because he was using LME though.

Oh and Dunns car went 168mph, but he's now a 4L80 car. Gus's car went 163 I'm pretty sure about that I was there, but not 100% but pretty sure about that. Its on that video, but would have to go though and watch a lot of it to find the passes from that day.

Pftt... Sounds slow.

Truer words can't be spoken. The reason we like to classify things is because some guys build their cars for one reason. Also, the base C6 and Z06 frames are different. ZR1 has a different transmission. It's completely fair to categorize different cars. When somebody pulls up at the track with the hardtop in the trunk with luggage for a 600 mile drive afterwards in full street trim(no skinnies/etc) runs mid 9's for a non 1/4 built car, I think it's different than a gutted/geared 1/4 only build that shows up on a trailer.

OP, good luck. I think 8.50's are possible in these cars, but I'm not sure I'd want to DD your setup. Good luck and keep us updated! Is Lethal still working on your car?

A friend of mine has a set of his RHS solid roller heads flowed 429 @700 I think, but he's got some nice ports, haven't seen a ton of results from them personally yet so this will be my first experience with his heads. Looking forward to seeing it come together for you.

Bryan wanted me to use the mast 305's and my Marcella.. I wanted FRH to do me a set of heads.. So I sent him my Marcella.. He looked at it and said his ports would be a LIL bigger then the ports on the intake.. So I said build me an intake.. It took almost 2 months to get the castings in from all pro.. He's had the heads 3 weeks now and is doing a custom one off deal.. I'm getting excited and am ready to tear some **** up..

Interesting setup. I knocked my compression down to 12:1 to allow for pump gas since chasing E85 sucks and with the ProEFI flex fuel sensor you can go back and forth and run mixed blends if your caught in a pinch. Sounds like you are planning a pretty radical n/a setup. How much juice through the fogger?

Will your intake manifold design have a large enough cross sectional area and still fit under the stock hood or are you going with an aftermarket hood or hole?

I DD it when it made 660/570.. It was the only vehicle I owned.. I did have a work truck, but I didn't drive it for personal stuff.. The cars at Lethal, but I'm not happy with Shawn and will probably go pick it up and ask for all my money they have.. Think I have a week or so and will be off work.. Maybe this post will get me a phone call..

Stock hood and no holes.. If I was gonna put hood on it I'd just put a cast all pro intake with a 4500 series TB.. I have no idea what he's doing on the intake.. It could end up with twin 102mm TB's for all I know.. Lol

What wheel/tire combo do you run in the back? I think the best 60ft I've seen was a 1.29 out of 69LS6's car, but don't quote me on that. I'm not sure his wheel/tire combo either.

If you hit these numbers, let him know he may have another customer in Houston who will sell his MAST 305's and Wilson Manifold to let him work magic on mine. I'll even swap the cam if he doesn't like it. Are these heads getting setup for nitrous with different, softer, chamber designs or is the focus on the n/a application first and foremost?

I'm curious on how they plan to achieve the proper cross sectional area under a stock hood for a 488ci motor. Can't wait to see the car in action.

Everything is being done for around a 300 or so shot.. I'm just letting him do whatever he wants.. The all pro 12-1's were the best castings and really the only option.. I would've done the 12-2's but didn't want to mess with having headers built..
