I think we are just waiting on you now....take one for the team

Checkout this L92 stroker (415)I wouldn't mind doing this and keep things naturally aspirated...Smokin Tq curve...

I might try the swap myself like we talked about last year. Still can't decide if I want to gut a new truck still under warranty or buy a Duramax to tow my trailer a bit more comfortably. A NNBS with its rack and pinion steering and a L92/6L80E for sure would be an improvement over my current truck.
I'm only half that distance from you!! since you want to try the swap, just buy my truck and go for it! I'll even drive it all the way over to you...

Very impressive numbers for sure. I am kind of surprised it was losing power by 6000 rpm with those heads.

Bout 625Hp to the flywheel based on a 20% drive train loss....Now that's a L92 : )

I hear ya though... the CAM and Header size looks like they could have been shooting more for a stump puller than a moon rev'er. I'm sure the stock catback wasn't helping out a whole bunch past 5,700rpm ....lol.

Just think 1 7/8'' headers, more aggresive CAM and a REAL Exhaust...

STOCK heads though....imagine if they worked them over some.
