Another Happy Vette Doctors Customer
I sent my baby to the wonderful folks at the Vette Doctors and I picked her up on Saturday. I had a ton of work done to car H/C, gears, converter, tunnel plate, headers, exhaust,etc
My first impressions are very good. The car idles well with a little bit of lope, on the highway it as if nothing has changed.
Before I get to the numbers. I wanted to add one more thing about the Vette Doctors .They take pride in their work and take care of the little things. When I picked the car up, it was cleaner than when I dropped it off. It had a full tank of gas and they cleaned my halltech stinger for me. That is what I call customer service.
The numbers prior to this were
322RWHP/330RWTQ w/3.15's and stock stall converter
The dyno numbers below are with a 3000ish stall and 3.42's. I will do a more in depth post once I put some miles on the new rear and get to beat on the car. I was hoping for around 400RWHP. See the results below..........

I was in a rush and very excited to get my car back yesterday. I forgot to ask. I told them not to try very hard when I dropped it off as I talked to the dealership before I dropped the car off and they agreed to look at it after the fact.

The heads are CNC Ported LS6, I though they were the GMPP ones. I told the Vette Doctors my goals and they chose the components. Hopefully they will chime in with some more details.
I will work on some video for it during the week. I have barely been home today.

It is a custom Vette Doctors grind, so I don't have the exact specs. I asked Carmen at the time and I think he said 224ish on a 114 LSA. Carmen knows better. Hopefully they will chime in today and answer some of the more technical details. It is their custom setup, so I am sure they don't want to divulge too much information.
