Thanks the car only has 1500 miles so it wasn't that bad the old gasket actually stained the deck. I used brake clean and a plastic razor blade worked perfect your set up is going to be awesome good luck with it are you going to upgrade bottom end? Put heads back on this morning going to see Santa this afternoon with family so probably get it back together during the week

The intake port is thin and already flows pretty good so I focused on the swirl and smoothing the port and port matching the supercharger. I still took a lot of material out just in the right places did a lot of research thank god for the inter web I took a lot of material out of the exhaust side that is the biggest restriction in the heads

Wow, looks great so far! Yes, on the motor. Sleeved LSA, Callies Rods, JE Pistons, main studs, Turbo Cam, etc.

Step one is to get the AGP system on and work out any and all bugs. Keep the boost down to 15 psi / 800 wheel and then get the motor installed in Jan/Feb.

I have a 2014 V6 LS Camaro. I'm looking to ad some horsepower to it, where do I start? I'm familiar with popular parts like intake, headers, intake manifold, suspension etc. I'm just looking for advice on what parts and what are some reasonable prices. Also some info on how to ad the hp the right way, without ruining my Camaro. I read this guy named Chris on super Chevy that got his v6 camaro to run 13s on a quarter mile.. Support if possible

Nice one thing to pay someone to do work for you (nothing against that) but nothing better than saying you did the work your self. Keep me posted on your build will be insain

You should go to the V6 forums they would be able to help you more than us V8 guys but engines are engines so start with getting more air in and more air out you can't go wrong with that.
