Any LS1 / 6's been on the Surrey Rollers?

Interesting to see if any of you guys have had you C5 or later Vettes on here, so I can guage whether mine is making what it should be (once run in in few weeks).

The unmodified cars tested at SRR came out on specification.

All looks good then: www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?p=1&f=100&t=140554&h=0

A good 5 litre TVR (Rover) is only make about 220rwhp on Charlies rollers. So a C5 ZO6 (with a few mods) in mine will be good!

Power to weight ratio is where you are going to be much better than a C5.....I would expect your figures to be about 405 BHP at the flywheel given this is what the motor is supposed to produce. But as you are atleast 200 kgs lighter than a vette it is on the road where yours will be quicker.

More like 300+kg - C5 is 1465 kg.

+ ECU programmed +17 bhp on Std vette exhaust, one off headers and full stainless system downstream (with only two small pre cats to keep it legal). Weighed 1080 pre trick box and LS guessing extra 35kg max.

So approx 380bhp / ton.

New C6 Z06 = 352bhp/ton! (www.ultimatecarpage.com/frame.php?file=car.php&carnum=2193)

See you in Le Man's, but hopefully at Fairmile later this month.

Running it in for last week. Even running in, it is truely NUTs - car weighing 1100kg and shorter gearing than a C5 Z06.

Maybe an ENZO or Zonda could do it on the straight, can't see alot else!

Should be run in over next week for Le man's.

A lot of people seem to miss it out and it's very important. Who made the system for you?
