Default A few Radix?

Hi everyone, just had a couple of questions on the Radix.
I should have it in 2 weeks and was wondering what kind of
rear wheel horsepower and torque i can expect with the 7ld pulley
and the 9ld.Also i have a 01 zo6 cam sitting at the shop and
will it be compatible with the superchips tune.And do you guys think
ill be able to take on 01 and up lightnings.

I could, but its just a block right now.I spun a rod bearing
Anyway, my goal , when my finaces recover,is put the 6.0 in the truck
dyno tune and beef up the trans.Then stroke the aluminum block and
drop that in the vette.But for now im pumped about the blower.

In a 5.3 rcsb with no other mods you are looking at 13.6-13.9 1/4mi times with the stock pulley,with the 9lb pulley,headers and sticky tires you might see a 12.8-13.0 1/4mi.The supercharger noise is very noticable at WOT,but the guy in the Lightning you are racing only hears the exhaust and gets good view of your taillights.

My 5.3 Tahoe turned a 13.285 at 101.36MPH with 7lbs of boost,ASM headers,electric fans and 255/50/16 BFG Drag radials.The Tahoe weighs about a 1000lbs more than a rcsb.
