I am running a 406 with Trick flow 23 degree heads (my sig has not been updated yet) and my best ET to date is 11.70 at 114.6 MPH. I believe there is more in the combination but I have not finished tuning it. The cam is the ZZ-409 from TPIS and the compression ratio is 10 to 1, all other items are the same as my 355 in my sig. My RWHP was 353 @ 5500 and my RWTQ was 414 @ 2800.

I am hoping for around 400 RWHP after all tuning is complete and low 11's. Time will tell if I am correct.

Is the 11.70 with the stock chip and what rpm are you shifting at? Thanks for the response. Any others ?

I am no longer using the stock chip, I have purchased the equipment to burn my own chips and I am still tuning the combination.
