Cant wait to finally be back on the road
I took advantage of thunders sale they have going right now.
Looks like I'll be able to do this for just at or under $2000.00

 

i was wondering where you went off to.. glad to hear your back and at it again.

 

Are you going to change cams?

 

Yea, all that and no cam swap??

 

On the stud kit....the windage tray for the LS1 has 8 holes, and the truck has 10.

Might want to get a couple of extra bolts/washers if you can!

 

As much as i'd love to,I just dont have the money for a cam

 

what bearings did you order? stock or clevite? i have a set of stock bearings i was going to use on my 6.0 build and the engine builder that's gonna do it said that he never uses stock on performance stuff because he ALWAYS runs into some sort of problem with them. i'm sure you went with the Clevite or federal moguls.

 

I might have a Nice FMS supercharger cam for you and a set of Springs from my setup
The Cam is a FM7 and made some great power on my truck
I should know early next week when it will be out, are you a hurry ?
i have 918 springs with it all with little miles on the stuff
On my truck on 8psi I made 535rwhp and 500rwtq
Pm Me when you get a chance

Sounds good Ranwalk. I think I missed it, what was causing the knocking in your engine?

Hey Jim, what are the specs on that blower cam? just curious to know...
Was this on your 5.3L or 6.0L that you made 535hp/500tq with that cam?

 

Futral Motorsports Custom Blower/Nitrous Camshaft - 224"/230" .586"/.591" 114LSA aggressive profile with a 1800-6800 RPM range, fair idle, for blower/nitrous applications

Those numbers were on my 6.0l bored .30 over
decent Cam had a LiL rumble to it
Drove nice
