there are no other options worth anything. the only way to go is ls6 and ported tb or a fast. i bought my fast used for 500 dollars.

zach you need to buy a ported 90/90. I picked up 32rwhp over my ls6 intake when I was cam only with the ms3.

I also stand by the suggestion of a FAST.

Zach, talk to mmorrison (Michael) about his experience with a Fast on a cammed LS1. It is worth the $ at your level. Plus you won't have to worry about it ever holding you back when the time comes for bigger and better things. Just save up a little longer and do it right the first time.

Well I had the money but the clutch needed to happen first. I am getting the clutch fixed at TDP Monday or Tuesday. Soon after that and another bill cycle lol I will buy the fast 90/90.

THanks for everyone's responses.

Hell ya! Hope the clutch fixes your probs. Mine is going in on Mon for the clutch and tune.

You won't regret a Fast. If there is anything I've learned with this damn car it is to just bite the bullet and just do it right the first time.

I have had a BBK for 3 years. When I bought it, it was &=$75 to 100 less than an ls6 at the time.

I think it flows as good as an LS6. Heat soak isn't an issue unless it's already over 100 degs outside. It could flow much better with porting but it wouldn't be as good as the fast. The extra 15 or 20 lbs would be my biggest issue. I think it looks good in the engine compartment and the throttle body has been good.

I will say that Holly or Weiland or whomever should answer at how they can jump the gun with a product like the street warrior by having it a last years SEMA show but then not have a functioning product over a year later. THey should be pretty red faced.

What was at the sema show last year a hunk of modeling clay?

I'm not a big fan of FAST because of the price, but at least they have a product.
