Not new but new here...6.0 build list
Below is my build I'm currently working on and have MOST of the mentioned parts from my previous trucks. Anyone see any issues, have any advice or imput?
I've contacted several people about cam selection and have decided to go with a Tick performance sns or BTR ls3 stage 2.... pretty close to each other.
I'm guessing around 425hp to the wheels on motor alone?
1999 Chevy Silverado rcsb
6.0 ls2 aluminum block
Factory lq4 rotating assembly
243 heads, ported, polished and milled .025 by precision porting of Houston, tx
Will be using a .04 cometic head gasket
Trunioun upgrade in rockers
1 7/8 stainless long tubes
True duel exhaust with x pipe
Fast 102 lsxrt truck Intake
Warr 102 throttle body
Walbro 255 fuel pump
Fast 60lb injectors with fast fuel rails
200 shot of gas on a plate kit (not used much)
Built 4l60e with 3600 circle d stall
4:10 gears with a Easton true trac
Assasain traction bars
Relocated rear shocks with Viking double adj.
Tyler Scruggs cross member and driveshaft loop.
Weld 15x10 Mickey Thompson street et's in the rear

Skip all the FAST parts, really just skip them.
The FAST intake is not worth the power to dollar ratio and will not be something you'll see an real gain from. Over $1500 with intake/TB/rails/Injectors to gain very little power over other parts that you can buy.
The TBSS/NBSS intake is far cheaper and still has gains over the NBS intake manifold. Stock truck rails will flow more fuel that you will need and FAST injectors I've heard have bad injector data or no solid data at all.
You only need around 40lb/hr injectors to reach a power goal of 400-450 on pump gas, there are several stock GM injectors that flow that much.

If you can find someone that can tune the intake, I say run it. On a stock engine, the gains aren't worth the money. The tbss intake was a restriction for my lq9 after I got the afrs on.
Unless you already have the 1-7/8 headers, save money and get some 1-3/4s.
even if you have the walbro 255, I'd probably get a 450 to run instead. They are cheap. And you won't have to swap again for future mods.
425 rwhp before the o **** spray isn't an unrealistic goal. The 4.10s will eat some power.
