well build is coming to its final stages. If I go for more power going to have to do lt4 pump/injectors which we will see on friday when Matt tunes it. Put the new lt1 msd truck wires on it tonight.

stock vs new one


Parallel with ground now
will you please post the part number or sleeve length?

Awesome numbers!
I have a suggestion for you, keep your pump and add the LT4 cam. I know you have a Z06, I recognize you form the Vette forum so I know you know the ability of the Z06 cam. Having a 6.2, your fuel pump and injectors are the same as the stingray and will support 700whp, your weak link is the small NA cam that isn't made to get boost out of the hole quick enough which causes lag and pressure that long term will kill your rings. The LT4 cam will solve those problems and has a much larger fuel lobe so it will automatically up your fueling which will allow you to pulley down. Also since it is a vvt cam you will not have to do a vvt delete kit (lifters, valley plate, cam phaser limiter), you keep all the low end tq and it will give it a nice idle that is noticeably better than the stock cam. Last this will give you the opportunity to throw in a set of dual valve springs and hardened push rods which is a must long term when running boost on these valve trains that were meant to be NA.

I just recently went through all this so I thought I'd share. Here's a link to my thread
