Solid Roller Build Up Ques. I am building a 6 liter solid roller setup. I have a few questions.
Crank: Does anyone make a decent crank a for the ls1(stock stroke) for under 500 dollars?
Is the stock crank worthy of 600 hp and 7800 rpms? It sounds stupid I know. Bare with me.
Fuel pump: I have a walbro 340, is that gonna have to be upgraded?
Intake: The LS6 intake at 7800 rpms has been surpassed I am sure, correct me if I am wrong.
You alls opinion.
Should I stick with a hydraulic cam, being the roller is gonna cost a hell of alot more. I only have about 3000 dollars to play with and I have the h-beam rods, and ross pistons(need a crank for sure). From what I figured the valve springs, seats, valves, and machine work on the heads is gonna cost about
1000.
Better yet, lets hear some of your 6.0 liter setups.

There are no "good" cranks under $500.00 and the stock 5.3\5.7 crank as been used up to around 850 FWHP by several people(me,Derty,Harlan,Rob)not sure on the 6.0l crank.
The 340 pump will be fine for N\A only
We find the LS6 intake will support high power levels up to 7500 when cammed properly. We have a 418 that made 612rwhp on a LS6 intake w\ported stock T\B!
