Thanks for looking! This is kinda lengthy so bear with me. I've owned my 2006 Z for a year and I'm ready to build. It's a 90k mile weekend beater, and aside from cosmetics it's bone stock. I've posted little but read religiously on this forum, 6 months ago I had it all figured out, problem is the more I read and gather info, the more I 2nd guess the correct mods I'm after....the one consistent thing I see asked is "what are your goals"....well that's easy, it's not a 405 pro-mod...but an absolute street monster with no other vocabulary but Murder every time something/someone pulls up beside me! I really don't have a set hp goal, but I won't be running any 1 mile events, and have serious doubts of any 1/2 mile events either. Now 1/4 mile runs? Absolutely! Keep in mind that this is/will be a 95% street car, with some 1/4 mi track runs just a few times a year for kicks. So supporting mods are fairly common and are as follows:
Halltech 103 (or 108)
MSD/NW102 (mamofied)
ARH 1 7/8 with X + cats
What I'm struggling with:
Heads- wcch,ahp,mamo,other????
Cam- ???? (insert here)
I've read the K501 builds, listened to all Torquer 110 & 116 clips, and have vip access to youtube for all the vids I've watched, from VR to Hennessey to Livernois........ Im ready to pinpoint a proven, can't miss package that hits it outta the park, because I can only afford to swing once! I will add that im in NW TN, so by whom said package will be tuned by is TBD, the install i will do myself. I appreciate your time, I'll hang up & listen.

My first NA build on my 08 z with 7k mi.had a mustang base of 421 after a 10k build with comp cam mast 305 preloaded heads vararam fast102 NW102 kooks 1-7/8 catless ect. I netted a little over 100. I was advised from the start F.I was best. Now it has a sleeved blower build with 800rw. Broke yes but done. No way you can hook it below 3rd. Good Luck
My car hooks 2nd fine at 1200rwhp.

Care to share your setup Unreal? I blew the tires off with 500 rw. Had to peddle the car through first and second to get an kind of traction.

Any ideas for a street tire/wheel setup? I don't plan to ever track the car. Even with DR's, I couldn't get the Z to hook in 1 or 2.
