i ended up going with a 232-238, 598-600, 113+4 with 4l80, 3800 stall and 4.11s but still breaking it in slowly. ive played a lil only and seems like its gonna be alright

Amen.
Time to get started in this project. But few changes has occurred. Was going turbo in future so I sold my stall n gears. Knowing the l92 heads would compliment it better. But plans change again as far as budget.
But as for now we are na with 1 3:4 primaries in the longtubes. Lq9 engine. Planing on milling the l92 heads to achieve 11.4 compression. Need to know how much to mill off them. I need tq and mid power help. .020-.025?
I'm planing a new 3200 stall or maybe 3600 and the gears this time are 3.73s as its my daily driver. So I want it to wake up wickedly.
The cam that will work with this new combo as I may stay na with this setup.

Mill heads .015 and run cometic .040 gaskets for 11:1cr to run with 93 and avoid detonation plus it's plenty. With 3200-3600 stall and 3.73 gears, I would go with the lunati 227-233, 585-585, 113+4. Great all around power everywhere cam for n/a and even for use with nitrous. You will love the cam and its $359 price.

Not only shave .015 off heads but cometic .040 gaskets for 11:1cr. I ran a truck with similar mods as mine but he had 6.2 and 4600 stall with car ls3 intake and outran it.

Yea cause the 6.2s run 10.5 compression. And that's a high stall IMO may have been unmatched.
But hear is the thing I have finally decided to sell my 6.0 vmax. Purchase a 6.2 and add a cam while its out plus mill the heads .010 or what I need to make the 6.2 11-11.2 compression. Stall will be a 3400 with 3.73 gears. I think it will be beastly and ready for more modd
