    I've got a SuperSix regrind cam to the following specs:
    210in/214exh 112 lsa .450/ .450 lift

    I've also got the heads and intake manifolds from SuperSix. I dynoed at 167rwhp (a little weak) before the heads and cam, and 200rwhp after the heads and cam. and that was w/ a stock cat. I should have over 210rwhp w/ my full 3" straight pipe now. I have not had a chance to pick up a maft+ but after I do some tuning w/ it, I hope to have over 230rwhp. That's LT1 territory.
    It is very streetable concidering I used to drive it over 60 miles a day, and now I drive it about 45 miles a day w/ mixed hwy and city driving. I retained use of my a/c and all other accesories. If you've got any more questions, please e-mail me being that I don't check the message boards very often.

      Rice Cooker... did you get the "GM3800 PowerPak (96-up Camaro/Firebird/GrandPrix) Our GM3800 Series II L36 PowerPak is a true bolt-on. Includes ported cylinder heads w/3-angle valve job, new valve seals, ported upper and lower intake manifolds, and reground cam. Dyno-proven 200 RWHP, add 25-30 more with optimized computer tuning. Prices start at $2050 for the kit which includes hi-lift valve springs. All components available individually."

      Entire deal from super six?

        Umm, let me try and answer that for him. He's gone, he sold the car on eBay, where I forget what it fetched. He was the tester for that GM Powerpak, but back when it was around $1000 or $1300, not the $2k of today.
        Food for thought,

          I didn't want to start a new thread on something that already existed. Does anyone else have the super six GM power pak?

            I have The heads from the power pack. Very nice port job. I am happy with the heads. But the cam included in the pack is a crower regrind. I would recomend calling compcams and getting a new core. As far as the P&P intakes im not sure much if thats worth it or not.

              pgriffith are they new heads, or do they do this to the ones we have?

              Why is the comp cam better than the one in the kit?

              I'm also not sure on the intake portion. I know if you go to far it makes it worse on alot of this stuff. [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

                I have answered this several times before as did a fe others, the search is very awesome [img]smile.gif[/img] tom at supersix uses your heads and ports and polishes your heads and you get your heads back, the comp cam is better because its a cam core not a regrind and it has faster ram rates and should give better power.

                I heard the apexi thing that zooomer has is better than maft+ is this true?

                      regrinds suck. www.zzperformance.com has a good cam that won't set of any ses lights and will make more power all over the powerband. it's got mroe lift, more duration, faster ramp rates, and the same lobe separation as our cam. it's the "VS" cam. u won't have to worry about tuning since the computer will be able to learn the new cam since it's not as radical(less lobe separation) as normal naturally aspirated cams. this cam will work w/ stock as well as ported and polished heads. u could pick up maybe 10-20 hp, depending on other mods u've done, maybe upwards of 30-50 IF intake, exhaust, headers, and heads are done, but please don't quote me on that, it's just an educated guess.
