Default One more day before.....

Sunday morning I'm droping the M6 vert off with Phil97SVT. So here's what's goin in:

1. West Coast Racing (A&A) Stage 2 heads @ 11:1
2. Comp 921 Springs
3. Shaner TB
4. Ported Oil Pump
5. LS2 timing chain
6. Cometic .040 head gaskets
7. ARP head bolts
8. Hardened Pushrods
9. Comp Cams 230-236 112lsa +2 XER cam
10. LS7 clutch and flywheel w/ Z06 slave
11. UD Pulley
12. Speed Density Tune for drivability
13. Abs of Steel tunnel plate
14. Other misc items

Already have Dynatechs, Z06 bars, Bilsteins, 18's all around, Z06 exhaust, Vortex CAI, LS6 Intake manifold, C6 shifter, a bunch of other performance items.

I didn't want to go with a monster cam since I will never see a track of any kind and I get stuck in DC traffic everyday. Just looking for a nasty cruiser.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

PERFECT FOR RUNNNING OUT AND PICKING UP THE GROCERIES?
