I made 492 locked on 93 octane 503 Rwhp on e85. Stock heads and bottom end. Stock compression. 460 is easy on stock heads. It gets harder from there.

The most important factor will be the dyno period. Look at it this way on average a stock L99 puts down 320rwhp you would need to pick up 180rwhp that is just not realistic.

Someone who knows how to design a lobe can make a lot more with the same advertised specs than Comp Mart (for example) ever will. Just saying.

There's a reason it costs 500+ bucks for a cam from a master vs some lobes spun off from a computer catalog like camquest. Airflow is a mind boggling thing when you become exposed to all the crazy things that happen in a running engine.

The guys who truly understand this are the ones who make the big bucks.

Time updates: 12.4 @ 115mph haven't had a chance to get on a computer so time slips and bids to follow traction was definitely an issue with the stock suspension and new found power/stall. Weather was at 2200 air density.

I guess that's not bad for a first run but could be deep in the 11s with some DR's and a good 60' . My first run was 12.4 @ 114 without the stall and a 2.1 60' .After driving my car with the stall I'm not gonna hit the track until after I get the drag radials.

12.4 is good given the situation. I'd be happy with that so far.
