The A10 SS 1LE is going to be a beast. No issues from me.

I will say it would be great to get the stronger/more performance shifting oriented 10L90 from the ZL1 instead of the 10L80 from the SS,...

The newer PF64 feels about like half the weight of the old one. It's designed just like the filter on my lawnmower with the little thin screen with the holes covering the thing. I definitely felt it...

I think it's BS that you can't just get regular cowl hoods for GEN6 Camaros. Cowl hoods with a bunch of vents and whatnot looks unattractive, goofy and ricey IMHO.

Damn right!!!

I'm assuming this means you're deleting the AFM systems as well? May as well get the heads ported at the same time while you have them off the car if you got the extra bones for it.

With all the complaints lately about the GEN6 Camaros ride quality I can only surmise that non-MRC cars ride like chit. That or either people buying them are use to German luxury.

Who knows. I picked up an 02 SS in December of 2015. Maybe in 2032 I might decide to grab another GEN6 SS 1LE of LT1 if I bump into one that's priced right. Hell I could get an itch for another LS1...

A C6 Z06 making 500+ WHP might feel great with some new R888's on it, but you try and push it with some wornout runflats and you'll quickly start thinking it's...

How many miles are on the car? I don't think GM has any kind of HP or RPM limiters built into the Camaros, but they do on the C8's. I think you have to hit like 500 miles to get the max HP from them...
