Ringram thanks mate , also got stevie on the case .
Fwiw got this reply from brian tooley ,seems well respected over on vette forum .
I think you were totally correct ,and reckon you have saved me a lot of aggro mate. Would like to hear your take on that stage 3 cam , they also do 1 and 2 ??
Oh and the cam in question is now out , and back in its box lol
cheers bud.

Hello Dave,
I have to be honest, I can not believe how big that cam is! It's HUGE for a positive displacement supercharger. I honestly can't believe Comp offers a cam that is that far off the norm.
Too much overlap will definitely cause loss of top end power, and that cam has a TON of overlap.
I just had a ZR1 customer set the record today running 9.30 @ 151 and he has my Stg III cam which has 0 degrees of overlap. http://www.briantooleyracing.com/positive-displace...
The shipping for one cam is $60 to the UK.
I have the cams in stock for immediate shipping if you want one.
Thanks,
Brian

Hi mate 
It is still with the tuner , hope to get it back by this weekend .
Making 15lbs of boost , has loads of fuel and been told it`s fast and very loud lol.
It`s a road tune but will dyno it at some point , will try and get a vid ,does sound pretty good .
Kinda got near the end of install and thought I would just get it finished and then update this thread.
Bear with me bud

Hey mate , thank you very much for the kind words .
I do remember it was you who inspired me into getting an SRT-10 Viper , another car I wish I could have kept along with the silver KB ZO6,all about space and money + the lure of something different.
It took me around 5 years to get my silver ZO6 how I wanted it , think I am trying to get this white ZO6 done in two ,so think I will just slow down and drive it , do a bit as and when lol.
The sound this thing makes is almost as entertaining as my black car
Check out the classifieds , not many C5 ZO6`S about but they are great value , as you know .
Cheers mate , pop in here any time bud .

Hey thanks guys , long as its entertaining .
Tiger , will take a few pics of polishing tools . Trick is to zone out , its just f tedious lol.
Exhaust , well I really wanted to get another corsa touring cat back , real crisp , been discontinued
because people thought they were not loud enough , so only option was this which is the sport which is the old pace car version lol. Bit boat like but does bark and scare the crap out of me every time I fire it up.
Dyno day today, one run only, shreaded main drive belt so something`s off pulley wise . Been ok up till now , but high rpm will test a motor for sure .
Been told that was a conservative run , no meth and hit 640 RW HP , Belt alignment is pissing me off but probably should be happy with a small niggle compared to what could of happened.
Hope to get the car back by the weekend and give it a good clean and new oil / filter , after the thrashing its had of late lol.
I need a beer big time

Hi bud
At the time I only measured the height to see if I could find some fans off ebay .
Not sure where they mount it on a C6 , but they do have a nice big grill area which is probably way better than the C5 .
Meth kit
Fuel pressure gauge
Nursed the thing home Saturday , didn't want to push my luck with the belt , got on it though few miles from home , just instant boost and way to much power
Got a tedious off idle flat spot that you have to try and drive through , like when pulling away at lights etc you have to get the revs up which can make you feel a dick lol.
Tuner says its the best he can get it , and tell`s me the cam is to blame because of low vacuum , also had to raise idle speed to try and help the situation .
If it is the cam then that one will be coming back out too .
After the last cam , and when buying this one I did ask the guy as long as we don't have any tuning issues I`m in .
Not right to finger point until I have more info though . Off to do more research and buy another £50 belt , that one probably is down to me though
Cheers

Vaughan , Thanks bud , think I would have zero mates and no mrs if I sold
ringram , have had a chat ,hope to take it up there asap .
Still need to do the belt and maybe swap the injectors for the 63`s which came with the blower.
Although I have been told the 1000 mags can be leaned out more than enough at idle , so don't know lol.
Need to check again with tuner , if I do swap em do you reckon it would drive up there ? can get it transported so not a biggie .
Work and bathroom diy have set thing`s back a tad
