Wild!

Evening,

Yeah, as stated, money is made to go round, and we are only here for a short time so enjoy mate.:dance:

Gee, if you do not get quite a way past the 300rwkw mark I would be suprised, sounds like a tough combo.
Out of interest, how is the valve to piston clearance? Did you have to fly cut them?
Might have missed it, but what it the compression of this beast?

Have fun!:thumbsup:

Cheers,

Wag54,:D

not sure what the compression ratio is its all written down but my tuner/engine builder has the sheet as for the pistons i got ross racing pistons and they already had valve relief in them and on the bump test there was plently of clearance even allowing for valve float etc

here are some pics of it installed ,the fast manifold is not on there yet as were going to dyno it with this port and polished ls6 manifold and higgins race T/B to see how much hp the fast manifold and T/B makes over a worked ls6 one, done a quick engine start on it today and its lumpy as hell sounded more like a bridgeport rotory . ..i will keep you posted as in the next 2 weeks its dyno time . . . .

Will be nice to see results, the stock worked manifold compaired to the FAST and higgins t-body should see around 15-20rwkws im thinking.
Im going to do a simple test like you to compair the ported ls6 over the harrop.
