Vacation Bench Racing
The custom grind camshaft I got for the car is close to the Comp Cams XR273HR cam, just some difference in the Lobe Seperation Angle and the advance of the cam. I ran the XR273HR through CamQuest, modeling the L33 with it's LS6 heads, headers, free flowing exhaust, a .030 mill of the heads to bump compression to 10.6:1, and the XR273HR combo should be good for 429HP and 380 ft/lbs of torque. Surprisingly, the two step smaller XR265HR models to 460HP and 401 ft/lbs of torque in the same combo, with a slightly stronger lower end. We'll have to see how it works out. Either combo should put the car in the deep 12s, if not knocking on 11 second timeslips at over 110 mph.
I took a couple pictures after cleaning up the harness. For a small, waterproof fuse block, I use the 6 position weatherpack connector with a clear cover. It provides three fuse positions, and a nice flat area for a label of the fuses using a Brother 1/2" tape label.
Here is the modified harness. I took out a few pounds of wire, reterminating nearly all the connections on the PCM. The Carolina Auto Masters tuned PCM is on the left side of the picture.
