Driving a car w/ around 600 FWHP over a 1,000 miles....with all the comforts of a luxery car, and over 23 MPG would have beeen unheard of 25 years ago! Congrats to all involved.
I slept on the couch actually. I fell asleep in front of the boob tube and woke up about 8 hours later. Grabbed a chicken breast outta the fridge then went back to sleep for another 2 hours before I had to get up for work.

4th gear pulls from 100-150 and 5th gear pulls from 100-170 are absolutely amazing. A h/c 346 can't compare to a h/c 402, even if the h/c is reused. LOL. The extra torque just pins you to your seat. Both of my passengers tonight couldn't believe it. One of them is a master tech for a gm dealership up here and he recently test drove the new ZR1 for an out of state customer that was complaining of a faulty traction control message. Customer said its always on. John drove it and said there was nothing wrong, just don't give it so much gas. LOL. When he compared the pull of my car to the new ZR1 I was shocked. He said close, but the ZR1 has me by a little. Oh well, I'm N/A not supercharged. He said you got a good point there.
Anyone on the fence about doing a stroker ?? If you can afford it, then do it. Don't second guess it. LG Motorsports can handle the job too. They exceeded my expectations.

I have followed your build threads and so forth. Awesome to hear how the car actually feels now. My 404 is being built this week and I am coming from 475rwhp, 430ftlbs HCI from my LS2. I figured low 500rwhp with the 404, yet I was a little concerned about only gaining 30-40rwhp at peak. But after reading your experiences, looks like the power under the curve is going to be an amazing difference! I am going with a little bit bigger cam, stage III 243 heads (340cfm, 240), ported FAST/TB and supporting mods. I hope I will be as satisfied as you. BTW, what gears do you have in your Vette?

You said it Tracy. Thanks again for all the help you gave in corrected the tb. It must've been one of the early production units (purchased 3/08 thru Ron@Vengeance Racing)
Texas to Michigan 1200+ mile trip that overall averaged 23 mpg was a lot lower then what this motor will do, mostly because of varying the speeds to assist final break in, and running the a/c. When I am able to take her on a trip up north with the cruise control set at 70 or so in 6th gear and no A/C robbing my mpg, I'll bet 28 mpg all day. Should be making a 120 mile run soon. Should give an idea at least. I'll fill up here, and then when I get there and report back the results. Stay tuned....

I'm glad your happy, and it's all working out for you. Now you need to run someone to get some sort of idea of what type of monster you put together.
Well courtesy of Brandon aka X Factor Pittbulls and his 10 second 415 ci Stroker, 4.10 geared 99 z28 I do. He got out on me the first "just for fun" run, and then the second run we were dead even. I just wish we could've took the run a little higher (MPH), but due to traffic that was it for the day. Thanks again for coming out Brandon. How did the pictures you took turn out ?? Can you email them to me ??

What do Brandon's timeslips look like? 415" and 4.10 gears without severe traction problems, I would of thought he would of got out in front of you.
I don't know what Brandon's time slips look like, and Brandon did get out in front of me the first time. My tires were pretty warm after all the spinning, and after Sean put VHT on them there was a noticeable increase in grip.
Maybe Brandon can chime in. He rode with me and knows the car is fast, and we also "raced, for fun" twice. So I'll let him post his opinion on my car.

I have 3.42 gears and thanks for the comments. I appreciate it. Sending you a pm.
Congrats on the build! That was a long ride home!! I know exactly how you feel about the 402, my Vengeance Racing built 402 is awesome! I went with a RPM 3.73 stage 2 diff in mine and it is like a rocket. Enjoy the 402
Congrates Doug on getting the car home! Nice long drive you had, lol! That thing must be insane with all that power. Those tires will surely help out big time.

When I say she pulls like a rocket to 170, then I am sure you know what I am talking about bro.
Thanks to everyone for the nice comments, and the glad I made it home safe posts. There were a few times on the road I was on the verge of falling asleep. Caffeine can only do so much. Again thanks for the kind words.
