Default H/C By A&A Rocks!

Well after a long, long wait it is done, I was going to do a H/C on my 01 oil burner but it was like an ex girlfriend, she had to many issues!

So I traded the 01 red Z06. After much discussion with Andy, I decided this is will be the first of probably many stages on my brand new 2004 CE Z06. AFR225's, 228-232-114 cam, trap, Fast 90, NW90, Kooks 1 7/8 with cats, springs, and injectors, Stock TI. Best pull was 455rwhp 411rwtq. I have waited to give a seat of the pants report and this car pulls awesome now. I live for the twisties so thats one of the main reasons I didn't go with a blower......... Yet. I also wanted a rockin cam. I love that nasty cam sound. On the highway the car pulls good, in the canyons its a different car. I can't thank Andy, Mike and Angel enough. Great service, Great work, and just an awesome experience! Now, pay the bills, drive it like I'm on the 7pm news in LA, and plan stage 2!

How do I change my screen name now?

Sweet! Why'd yo go w/ 225's and 1 7/8ths on a 346 ci motor? 205's and 1 3/4ths would probably have scored you more torque.

Sweet anyway.

I was willing to sacrifice a little torque to save $ on Stage 2. I was thrown the keys and took a spin in a 427. We figured I could use the heads and headers with the next stage. This is as bad as crack! I just finished my last deal, and I'm already planning the next one!
