[QUOTE="EcoBoostF100, post: 16943933, member: 136784"] All of this work and big $$ and I expect this engine to make less HP than the stock 335hp 390! But, I did not build for HP and a simple camshaft change and switching to a Performer RPM would make HUGE gains. Always wanted to do a smaller inch FE and build it for MPG which is typically not used in same sentence as FE. Good performance valve job on stock C6AE-R heads, stainless valves with Hardened seats. Short block good for some pretty good HP but just because went the low rpm idle to 4000 with TQ Converter, Cam, Intake and Overdrive for daily driver low RPM with boatloads of torque down low and MPG. Switching to a nice head would also give massive power increase. I simply wanted to do best I could out of curiosity MPG low RPM where this intake should work fine yet look like a stock S GT intake. The piston and ring package alone was $1000.00 [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_3135.jpeg"]1804979[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_3455.jpeg"]1804980[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_3454.jpeg"]1804981[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_3456.jpeg"]1804982[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_3457.jpeg"]1804983[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_3466.jpeg"]1804984[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
