Default FAST 90 & NW TB?

Mods are below i am planning on doing a built 9 inch and in the future plan on a iron block 6.0L is the above combo worth buying for my vehicle now, and then eventually throwing it on the large H/C 6.0L? how much will it take off in my 1/4 mile?

IMO, if you don't have at least heads and cam, then you don't need to spend the money on a FAST setup yet.

yeah i have plans of H/C on a new motor, with 112K i dont want to do a heads and cam that only lasts 50K just seems like a waste of money. I have thought of throwing a cam in her for now (https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...20#post4844520) and i figured that would be nice with the FAST/NW setup, plus the TB and intake manifold dont really wear out like a cam will, so i could spend the money know (which I have) on the FAST/NW setup and then just put them on the built 6.0L. But the cam with all the goodies included would be around the same price $1100 or so, which is more worth it?

a cam package will net you MUCH more power than a FAST 90 setup will.

I'd even put money that you would lose power on your stock motor with a FAST 90, especially down low... you just don't have the airflow demand to justify it.
