Then if i want more i can go to a large single. Cause unless i did a remote setup, i doubt a twin turbo setup would fit in the engine bay. Let alone clear the steering column.
BUT THAT HKSGT2835 WILL BE UP FOR SALE SHORTLY SO STAY GLUED TO THE CLASSIFIEDS GUYS

The C6 Z06 (LS7) cam is actually a great choice for a strong NA/mild forced induction setup - people on stock LS1s with I/H/E and that (or a similar cam) are putting down 400whp. You will also want to do lifters and rocker arms, and rev out a little more if you're drifting (that cam hits peak power at about 6200 IIRC, so you'll want a few hundred more rpm). Very, very, cheap horsepower.
I totally agree with selling the turbo, swapping the engine in, and getting a feel for it.
In the Z06, the LS6 felt anemic, like an NSX - the rest of the car is a 9, but the engine just leaves something to be desired (until you supercharge it
). I think of putting that engine in an S-chassis that's 500lbs lighter with 3/4 the traction, and it seems like a good fit.
