#21
Melting Slicks
Here was my car around lunch time yesterday, It took all in all about 8-9 hours to do the install. we just copied a tune from a friends car that has the Stage III cam to get it to run. so with a copied tune, until can get it properly tuned the 5th, it sounds pretty good. My car has Frankenstein Stg 2 LS7 casting heads, K&N CAI, BTR Stg 4 cam, Monster Dual disc clutch, MGW shifter, stock exhaust (for now). ill post a sound clip once tuned
Can you share more details about the heads? Flow numbers and what size?

from what i could gather over the phone (i was at work), @ the lift I am at (.650ish) they flow 390 cfm on the intake and i forgot what they said the exhaust flowed, with their CNC porting program, New Manley Severe Duty exhaust valves, new bronze guides, BTR Platinum valve springs with titanium retainers. Frankenstein said it should make well over 600 to the wheels with the stage 4 cam and intake and full exhaust.

Found out today that they are Stg 1 Frankenstein LS7 heads and that the are milled .030" to bump the compression up to 11.5:1. The exhaust ports on these heads are no longer a "D" port, they are now round. With my car having stock manifolds there is some turbulence or may be some revergence causing it to knock above 6K RPM and to pull timing out, also could be bad gas or a combo of the two. I'm running this tank out to put some Shell 93 octane, then go back and tweak on it a little more.
550 RWHP @ 17 degrees isnt to bad

I just ordered my headers and will go back for a retune once installed. hopefully ill be close to the 600 rwhp mark. driving it everyday, its a lotta bit jerky. i had pretty great luck at tx2k15 and whooped up on a slew of 650-700 rwhp cars and was told that i had a supercharger. they were stupefied when i opened the hood and they saw stock manifolds, stock spark plug wires, generally a stock engine bay other than a k&n cai. this cam pulls like a freight train above 3500 rpm. if the "jerkiness" doesn't bother you then go for it. if you want a smoother ride and still make some good steam look into the stg 3 cam, that cam makes great power too and is more street friendly.

I'm hoping the jerkyness can be tamed through tuning. I expect some bucking. It's either this or Katech k501 cam. Think only the stage 4 is a closer comparison with the k501but I could be wrong. I need to look at a stage 3 and see the specs. I had a tourqer 110 in my last Z06 and loved it, but hated how it died up top. I'm willing to give up some low end TQ for a freight train top end....

I love that second part!! That's great!! I always find it funny when you hear the speculation that's so far off as justification for why someone got stomped. The truth is hard to deal with sometimes.
Nice work!!
