Has any ran a Futral f6 in a 5.3 is so what did you think anxious to know if it was performer or not been considering this cam for awhile.

 

need more converter for that cam

 

So no one has had any experience with this cam from from Futral?

 

In my opinion that cam is a bit on the large side for a stock cube 5.3. Unless its primarily a track application and your planning on running a converter with a higher stall rating than a 3200.

 

I would say that cam is a bit large also, what are your goals for this setup? What RPM do you hope to shift at? You could run that cam with more converter but I say it's still too big.

 

^Agreed even if he runs a higher stall converter hes going to have to spin that 5.3 pretty good to take advantage of that cam.

 

Well you all may think I'm crazy but I don't really have any main goals it's not a dd its more of a toy I plan on taking it to the track off and on and street driving it occasionally I plan on running a 3600 converter and a 4:10 gear soon and probably a 125 shot I would be happy running a low 12 at the track tho I already have a tr220 it's jst not all that radical but don't get me wrong it runs great I jst want more without having to go FI I'm jst working with what I have for now!!! And I only spinning it 6200! With all that being said I was jst looking for a better cam than what I have now eventually it will have a built 408 but thats a while away!

 

If it will be mainly for track, you can get a good running 5.3L with the proper mods.

Go 9.5" 3800rpm - 4400rpm converter, tbss intake, built trans, 4:10 gears or possibly shorter gears, new heads to bump up the compression, bigger injectors and bigger Throttle Body and then the Futral F6 cam 226/230 cam would run like a raped ape. Another choice would be a EPS custom grind around a 227/230 or 226/230 with a little more lift than the Futral F6.

If you don't want to spend all the money on all the supporting mods to make it run properly, then I agree with the others, stick with the cam you already have or go smaller than the Futral.
