LS6 and L98 heads are completely different
and the LS6 manifold wont bolt to L98 heads you will need the 90mm L98/76 manifold

Is it just me or should this be going better than that?

Ive got that same cam, and did 12.4 @110 with 1900kg on board with 3.07's with std ls6 manifold and std hsv extractors and twin 2.5". Also has 238rwkw convertor unlocked.
