Default FMS Built 6.0+Radix Project

Well, for those of you who don't know....I had Futral MotorSports build me a 6.0 to compliment my Radix,FLP tranny, and 3" pulley. She's ben torn apart for some time now, but the day has finally come(almost). I got a Pm from Allan saying the motor was finished today and will be re-installed Monday! WOOOOT
So, it looks like by the end of the week, I will be back behind the wheel again. I will post numbers and vids asap!

Oh, and heres what they did:
-6.0l Block
-Diamond Piston w/ Rings
-FMS Custum Ground Cam
-FMS Pushrods
-Rollmaster Single Timing Chain
-FMS Ported Oil Pump
-ARP Rod Bolts
-Manley Dual Spring Kit
-TR6 PLugs

Sounds like you should make some good power. I'm guessing you're going to max out the blower and push it as hard as you can? Any expected #s?

Can't wait to se how it turns out

Yess Allan will be re-tuning the new motor.

I'm not exactly sure what the exact specs are on the new motor yet, but will post as soon as i talk to Allan, but the boost should be around 9 lbs or so.

And thanks for all the support! I will have numbers asap!
