LS3 418/2200R build...thoughts?
Currently on the car is the Novi 1500 kit with the ecs small blower cam, 1 7/8 headers and meth. Work and tune was done by Lethal Performance in Schertz and made 724/622 @ 13psi. I ran the car once and it ran a 10.46@141mph full weight on 305 MT dr's on the 19s with a 1.85 60ft. It's an auto with the stock converter as well.
Apparently that wasn't enough lol. I gave Lethal a call and discussed the plans I have for it and what my goals were, pretty much a 900rwhp car give or take lol. After talking to Danny, this is a quick rundown on it...
LS3 forged 418
ported ls3 heads
ecs small blower cam
2200R head unit w/ 3.0 pulley
8 rib conversion with flip drive
Century 6l80e w yank converter
E85
They'll also be doing their coil relocation kit with the powdercoated valve covers and a catch can. I'm sure I'm leaving technical stuff out but I'm posting from my phone lol. Any thoughts?

No reason not to run a 10 rib.

Sounds like nice build. Similar to mine. 8 rib will work fine, but like the others said........if buying everything from scratch, just go with the 10 rib from the start.

07blkvette, yes same bracket can take anything from a novi 1200 to 2200, si to Ysi.
There is no extra cost for 10 rib, so unless you already have a balancer/etc then just do 10 rib from the start.
ECS small blower cam isn't what I would run, but would work fine. Much rather see something custom tailored do your build, but if you were going for an off the shelf cam that could work fine.
