Default FAST 90/90 Worth it with a TR224 Cam?

Is it worth going with this combo with a TR224 cam? Or would I be best suited with a ported tb and ls6 intake for the money?

I would go ported wTB with an LS6. You would be wasting your money unless you are running some good heads also.

I tend to agree. The FAST makes most of it's power at higher rpms, unless you are revving to 6400rpm you'll see very little gain for the $$$.

If you ever plan on a bigger cam and some decent heads then yay it would be worthwhile in the long run, just not fully utilised at the present.

I do agree with what the guys said above with cam only, but what about in my situation? I have Absolute Speed 5.3l heads. Would the gains be worth it? Mods in sig.

I said, with heads it might be a worthwhile switch. You will pick up power with the FAST.

Unless you have money to burn you can either:
1. Buy the FAST 90/NW90 setup.
2. Or my paypal account is jordan.c.mcdonald@gmail.com
