Talking Turbos on the way!!!

Just ordered my turbos and WG's today from Forced Inductions! They will be (2)62-1 Turbonetics and (2)Turbosmart Ulta gates. These will be going on a 02 6.0 iron block stroked to 402ci. Eagle crank and rods. Probe 28cc dish pistions. Somewhere in the 8.5 CR range. Ported 6.0 heads, LS6 intake and ported TB. This motor will be ran on pump gas only. (91 octane) ATAIC and about 15-16lbs.

Do you think this combo will be good for 800-900hp at the crank?? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Well, considering people are making that at the wheels with 346 LS1's on pump (93, though), I'd say you have every chance in the world. Are you going to cam it?

Just be sure not to skimp on your fuel setup.
It adds up real fast also.

What drivetrain???
Tuner??? what??

Yes, I will be changing the cam. Havent decided yet on which one yet. I was thinking a Z06 cam. Or call Comp and see what they recommed. A buddy of mine wants me to get a custom cam made by Bullet Cams, but I dont know if I will go that route.

Called Ricks for the fuel set up. I want the pump in the tank so it will keep the noise down. Do know if its worth the $1900.00 or not. But anyway, plan on running a Aeromotive Eliminator pump. -10 feed, -8 return, 96lbs injectors. EFI Live, and stock PCM. Driveline is in my sig.

That combo will easily make 900 crank hp. A stock LS6 cam will work fine with that setup also.

FYI we decided the Aeromotive Eliminator pump was going to be to small for my setup...... did u want 900 at the flywheel.... ie around 700-750 rwhp or 900rwhp???

I called Areomotive, they said the Eliminator pump would feed my enginejust fine. They said its good for 1100hp. Anyone else think this pump will work good? Any other suggestions??

Thanks for all the input! I cant wait to get the turbos in the mail and start the fab work!!

they told me twin walbro pumps would keep the heat down, and be sufficient for my build... rather than a monster single unit...by the way, i think that is a great setup you chose for your build-hope all goes well.

I run a A1000 at 45 psi, no pressure drop with over 800 rwhp. Runs nice quiet and cool!! An eliminator pump will supply about 1000+ RWHP without a problem

Yeah, I was thinking of that. I think Nitrorocket runs a cam with that specs. It sounds sweet!! But, with my car, Im not for sure if a cam like this would work. (but maybe with the bigger cubes, it would) My car has a .50 OD, so at 70mph my rpms will be at a little over 1500 rpms. Will a cam of that size work with my setup? I dont want to have to downshift, on the freeway, everytime I come to a small hill. Will their be any low rpm boost under load?? I guess when it comes down to it, I would rather have the performance over sound.

My cam would work fine in your car.... Maybe I should upgrade! Anyway, It idles at 750 rpm and is great at low rpm. Does not really even idle that lopey. This cam is only good for about 1100-1200 hp max without being to ineficient(sp?)

Says who!! Works for me! I still have plenty of fueling left in my pump. Runs cool, quiet, and supplies all my power with no problems!
