Default What's next and who's doin' it?

Well it seems the 13.9 @ 95 N/A combo is pretty well defined for the 00'-02' SCSB C-1500's:

Cold Air Intake, Generic tuning (HPP3 superchips, etc.), Underdrive pullies, Electric fans, Headers(mid length or Long tube, Exhaust or cutout, 3000+ stall converter and DOT tires.

Seems to produce about 295-315 RWHP and 325-350 ft-lbs of torque.

Any other Heads and Cam projects in the works?
I think the only other I've seen/heard of was running 13.7's. I think this should be pretty attainable with some custom ECM tuning and suspension on the above combo. God forbid you could shave a couple hundred pounds off the front. You could have 13.5's with 'glass hood and fenders.

I am still eagerly awaiting my 13.9 on stock internals. After next week I will have everything on the list but the converter and drag radials. I think the DRs are next since I cannot hook up on the new Yokos since I got my gearing back with the tire downsize from the 31" Nittos. I was at the track last wed and could not stall up past 800 without spinning but I was still cutting 2.17s. I think after the converter I will go the heads/cam route. By then I will be most of the way though my ext warranty (75k).

I'm waiting for heads and cam options for the 8.1.

Whipple has a S/C available, but I'm still on the fence as to whether I want to go N/A or forced induction.

Hell, if I see 13.9 N/A, I'll be a happy man. I have an EC though and right now am trying the seemingly imposible task of getting 14.9 N/A out of a 4.8. I think it can be done. I will be getting a T/C and ET streets later this summer. With the motor I am planning to build (5.7 heads and cam) I would like to see 13.5 N/A. I know that is a lofty goal but what the hell, gotta have something to shoot for.

I am hoping to build a lightning killer. I am currently building an LS1 to install in my 2002 pickup. It will have ported and polished heads, headers, shift kit, 4.10 gears, and a torque cam in it. 206/212lsa112, it is a small cam I know however it will have plenty of off the line grunt.

I am hoping to see 345 rwhp and 370 rwtq, I hope that will be enough to get a Ford. This will be before the juice which will probably be a 75-100 shot. However I am worried about the cast pistons. If anyone has any more ideas for power
let me know.
