Finally Parts for my W2W 427 starting to come in...
Well today I met a bunch of good guys over at West Coast Cylinder Heads. Richard and I believe his name was Dave (sorry if Im wrong) gave me a good lesson! I got to look at a few different styles and designs. Richard really took a lot of time to explain his work and his products. The guys over there know their stuff! Here are my set of All Pros. Originally I was suppose to get some ET Heads but I guess things didn't work out with them so here I am.
Here is a picture of the Jesel Rocker with MoHawk Option which is required for these heads.

I hate answering this question the most. Its so hard to say really. I've heard people say 800, 900 and some have actually said the 4 digit zone at the motor. I guess anything above 700 rwhp would be nice. I'll have a good idea when they put the APS kit on the Engine Dyno. Hopefully I can figure out what to do to bring boost on by MPH since the HKS EVC 6 boost controller states you can use "vehicle speed" (and Im pretty sure any new Boost Controller) to determine the about of psi needed at a particular speed. I would hate to have a lot of boost in the early gears since Im pretty sure traction will be a huge factor. The Heffner Vipers have a set up I dream about. Its super awesome! A science project for sure but we will see if it can be done.
Given that you have 427 and even with FI friendly compression ratio you should be around 500 RWHP on engine only (based on top notch parts used such as your heads). Then all that should be needed is 7 psi of boost to take you to or above your 700 mark provided both turbo wheel and turbine stay in good efficiency island and good charge air cooling.
I've seen boost by gear but have yet to see or play with VSS (vehicle speed sensor) based system. The C6 does make VSS implementation fairly straight forward.

When do expect Z06 TT kit?

Well Peter at APS has been saying end of Aug for the kit. Everything on my car will be ready by the time it comes. Thats the only thing holding this project back really.
Do you know anyone who has used the VSS on the Corvette for this purpose? I'd love to get more info....

Mark, Your ZO6 twin turbo system will be the first ZO6 twin turbo system shipped to the US..............end of August despatch looks to be right on schedule as of now and door to door air freight is only 3 to 5 days.

Richard and his crew are top notch guys!
