Looks like an awesome build! |
Very, very nice. Your car ought to really be a blast to drive once all those parts are installed.

Nice! :thumbs:
Who's offset differential mounts are you using? They look like OEM C6 pieces. Have they been modified to make the studs offset? |
Great build. Richard is a great guy with some great products. He was involved in the multiple iterations of my build.
You should be over 600RW easily. My little 427 was at 656hp on the Superflo engine dyno and does 577RWHP with 530RWT. I run Richards Stage 3 L92/LS3 heads with a little 234-242 cam and it's so mild my wife could drive it. Question for you...Does Richard like the CHE rockers with the .660 lift? I really need to get the YT's out of my car. I've already broken a few from two different sets. Congrats again.:thumbs: Adding the engine dyno graph.. You should be able to figure out pretty close to where your rear wheel numbers will end up. http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g9.../L76vsFAST.jpg |

Looks great! Did you consider higher compression and E85/E98? Just curious, not being critical.
My 440c.i. puts 540hp/520tq to the wheels on 11.7:1 and 91. I've been told it's a stingy dyno too, but that doesn't really matter much. I bought my car already built otherwise I would have gone 13.5:1 and E85 for that extra ~5% to the ground. |
YIKES!!! Suck me through the intake and blow me out the exhaust. How much $$?
|
Awesome build. Look forward to hearing the results.
|
That looks great! My 427 is coming out in mid Jan and is being sent to Golen for a rebuild and some enhancements. I am glad to hear that you had a positive experience. Mine will be run in on their dyno before it is shipped back.

:thumbs:Sweet!

Thanks. I needed to hear that. My current build never was right. It has always burned more oil than it should so it is finally time to take care of that. I really want it to be right this time and it sounds like I have no worries going with Golen.

Chad is great guy to work with and extremely knowledgable with over 20 years in the business. I called several shops before deciding to go with Golens. He is very meticulous, documents all the details, takes the time to talk with you, and goes the extra mile. Definitely one of benefits of dealing directly with the owner - you will not be disappointed.

Very impressive build, that is going to be a blast once it's all together! :cool: Nothing like a quality spare-no-expense N/A build, especially seeing it put into a C5Z! :yesnod:
I think you will especially like that TR6060. I recently went that direction when my built MN12 broke a main shaft and I couldn't be happier. Shifts like butter now, with my RSD short shifter, it feels much nicer than the shifter in my BRZ or my old S2000. Can shift with 1 finger if you want to. I never realized the C5 B&B Fusion was 3", is that something new they make or was it a custom request? Or am I just dumb and it was always 3"? :lol: Either way, very curious to hear your opinions of it. |
My setup is the same except that I have a LS7 block. I get about 1500 miles/quart if I am nice to it. Golen is going to bore it +.005 to clean up the bore and use new coated pistons.

The trick to get all the potential power to the ground on a big cube N/A build requires the EGT's to remain at reasonable level. Full flow 3" is really the only way to get the exhaust gas out of the combustion chamber quickly, resulting in lower temps. As far as sound goes I am not to sure what to expect. I know in 'loud mode' it is going to be very loud. But in 'quiet mode' my hope is that it will be Police friendly. I will be posting idle and chassis dyno clips in both modes. |

I've run a couple 2.5 inch catbacks one the 403 build with DMH cutouts also. The difference with the cutouts open on the dyno was 12-15rwhp IIRC. It would probably be a little more with the 427. I now run LG's Big 3 catback and the difference with the cutouts open is now only 1 or 2 RWHP. They aren't too loud and sound good. Now I'm 3 inches from the AR 17/8 LT collector to the tips.

You may want to consider 'lateral gas ports' as an option on your pistons. My understanding is that it will help to push the ring against the cylinder bore thereby reducing the risk of oil burning. They also claim it is good for 7 to 10hp - which is really good value when looking at $/hp.

I was not really sure what to expect in added HP. I will be 3 inches from my Kooks 17/8 collector to tip as well. |

Would really like to see some pics of the underneath of the Vette where the B&B Fusion goes into your X-Pipe!!! I am doing something similar with the B&B being a 3" slip fit! It would really help me out if I could get some pics! :D (1) Headers, size, or C6 Z06 Exhaust manifolds? (2) X-Pipe 3", for C5 or are you using the C6 Z06 X-pipe? (3) Cats or catless? Thanks,Matt madmatt9471@sbcglobal.net (email if you would rather) :thumbs: |

Over the next couple of weeks we will also be doing a separate tune with Sunoco 260GT Plus those numbers will be posted as well. |
