Given that above..... I think that Matt's car will dyno ~450 rwhp on a 65F morning as it sits now. Add some bigger long tube headers, and I'm gonna bet around 460+ rwhp.

Sweet.

In all seriousness though..

I think that Matt and I will be able to hang very well with you till about 150mph. As we spoke before... you have a little more HP, but we have a little less weight. Although I'm busting 215lbs right now so I think I'm my own enemy on that front..

. The C5Z vs C6 gearing is the same-ish too.

Also, the C5Z rear window will hurt Matt and I for Aerodynamics at high speed for sure. Its worse at night with our headlights up. Its like 2 brick walls on the front of our car's when they are up.

Same reason she tells you she needs a new pair of shoes.

I agree with you on the weather. H/C/I with no UD Pulley, unported LS2 TB, unported FAST 90, stock flywheel, I did 443rwhp/382rwtq SAE in 102*. Then again a vararam isn't a dyno happy intake.

What CAI is each car running?

C5Z gearing is the same as C6 Z51 gearing. And the C6 non-Z51 is the same gearing as C5 coupes and verts.

Car should be finished Thurs,Fri...

Hey man, yeah, I'm still at Polk. I didn't even go to JRTC. Got here, got my weapon zeroed and got on the plane!

Where are you at now? I'm going to do a heads/cam early next year. Still researching packages that fit my needs.

The interior is going to get done first, then some TSW wheels and then the motor mods.
