I've actually been planning on getting a cam from them. A buddy of mine suggested the F6 112LSA. It would be going on my daily driver that right now has a cat-back, BBK throttle body, and K&N intake, all of which came on the car. I'm planning on adding an LS6 intake, pace setter LT's and y-pipe (already have these), valve springs, retainers, pushrods, and an LS2 timing chain, maybe an upgraded oil pump as well. Would this be a good match for my set up? Down the road I'm planning on adding heads and a 100-150 shot. Thanks for any help you guys can give me.

I only use Futral cams - having tried the FM6 to a FM13 on my LS6 and then a larger custom grind on my 383 stroker. Strong numbers on the dyno and awesome results on the road courses! I had great experiences with Allan when it came time to decide on a custom grind to meet my specific needs. Mike

Yea so far out of personal experience i like the f14 None HL the best altho i have only seen 2 (f14 HL and non HL) and personaly the non HL sounded better and it put down better numbers. Allan will hook you up tho i have already talked to him and seems very promising i cant wait.

The FM13 is the best 346 c.i. cam Alan has ever produced IMO. I consistently make 410+ rwhp on stock headed cars, and 450+ with heads/cam/stock intake and that cam. One of my older heads/cam setups made 425ft lbs with the FM13, with 4 yr old TEA heads and a stock LS6 intake.
Best 346 cam on the market IMO.

Some choose to use the regular lift just due to they are nervous about running .646/.612 of lift in there daily driver. Run some good dual springs and forget about it.
Just my 2cents

I think with the f13 you could do great with a 3600 stall as it has great tq starting low in the power band. Although a 4000 would be damn near perfect.
That depends on what you want out of your car.
The 13 starts early and liked to be shifted in my car at 6700. The f14 that is in my car now pulls all the way to 7000 but does not seem to have quite the low end punch my 13 had. The f14 is in my 6.0 with only 10.3/1 compression so that could be where my bottom end went.
Allen had alot of input from one of the best cam guy's in the industry that was at Cam Motions for years and now works at Futrals shop. (Terry)

^^ I want to have good low end torque and be pretty street friendly, which I guess the 3600 would be better than the 4000 at? I don't race really, but it would be good to be able to run from a dig or even a roll once in a while. What would be the big difference between getting a 3600 and a 4000?

The F14 definitely pulls to 7000 and also like some compression. I was running some where around 11.8 with mine, and it operated flawlessly.
