Re: Heads/Cam Upgrade (STL94LT1)
I didn't think of that. Maybe I'll try to record one. It does change the personality of the car :reddevil
It's like somebody took my rev limiter away. :blueangel:
I took an F-Body guy from work today for a ride in it. He not so sure anymore about his 2002 TA WS6 taking my old vette now :D We are probably going to dyno both our cars together sometime soon. I'm hopping for somehting like 300-310 RWHP.
When do you guys plan on doing gears?

Jay, another question. Did you get your PCM reprogrammed?

Re: Heads/Cam Upgrade (STL94LT1)
Yes, I got a new chip. My understanding from other forum posts was that the stock 600RPM idle is too low for the hotcam. Plus, you want to take advantage of the RR's by raising the rev limiter from 5800 to 6400/6500 rpm.
I couln't find anyone local to tune and burn. I tried to IM Marcho Polo to see if he was interested, but he didn't reply. So I went with an Ed Wright chip. Over priced but seems to work fine.

Re:4.11 rear gear
This amazes me. I have a 3.33 rear and my best 0-60 times are by starting in 2nd and leaving it there. If I start hard in first, I smoke and slide all the way to 2nd gear shift.
I guess I'm getting a little more torque out of my old L98 or I need really soooooft slicks.
C5s hate to race me. :)
