Okay first things first I'll tell you my set up. I got a 01 rcsb with a m12 t56 with the 2.97 first, .56 sixth, 4.56 rear gears, nitrous, and a 5.3 right now. I have a forged 370 on the stand waiting on some pushrods then I should be swapping it over within a month or so.

The 370 consists of
6.0 block .030 over
Stock crank
Compstar 6.125 h beam with arp2000 bolts
2618 wiseco flat tops .022 top ring .024 second ring
799 heads hand ported
234/242 .629/.629 112+4 then I advanced it 2 more degrees
Morel 5290 lifters
Harland sharp roller rockers 1.7s
Tbss intake with 90mm tb

I'll be spraying a 150 shot at first. May bump it up to 250 eventually. I really like the hi ram but want to keep some lowend power so that's why I kinda thought about the lsxrt but I've heard horror story's of them leaking. I take it to the track 5-10 times a year but this is my daily for now. I'm sure I'll get a gas getter later on. Right now rev limiter is set at 6500 but might raise that to 7000 later on. What intake would you guys run?

 

I got a ported fast lsxrt from peakspeed shop dont think its leaking still in the tuning process but I think Im going to like it

 

Holley high ram for sure. Being a nitrous build heat soak won't matter and it will make power for days without choking it at high rpm. The FAst is a bitch to tune with a big boy cam. Not saying it can't be done but its tougher than any other intake that I know of.

 

I don't know if this matters or not but later on, like several years from now, I'd like to throw a procharger on it. The motor is 11:1 right now but I can always swap a set of 317s back on it to drop the compression some. That's if I can get the heads off in the truck with the head studs. Keep the answers coming guys
