I now have sitting in my garage waiting is: Dart heads, double roller timg set, water pump, new brakes & rotors, line lock, fan switch, oil pump, basically everything that I need to do a complete heads and cam swap with all supporting stuff. I am just waiting for Futral to send the Cam ( I am not complaining, Just eager) I have it pretty much tore apart just waiting and soooooo HAPPY. any way jsut getting the itch and wanted to share.
I will post when it is all done and let y'all know the outcome.

 

what cam did you go with?? and which heads? the 205s or 225s?

 

Futral F-13, Dart 205's, hopefully it will turn out to be a good combo.

 

Did you forget the pushrods and gaskets or just not mention them?

 

nice...

very excited to see the results.

the cam is similar to what i have, and the heads are what i've wanted to get. my goal is 450rwhp...not sure it will quite make that much with the combo...but i'm sure it will be close

 

hahaha, I JUST got my F-13 cam from Futral, and now I'm waiting for my HEADS to come back from the machine shop with the new valves. We're in opposite positions. how funny.

 

haha after that last gay conversation you got that dude into? no way... j/k

 

no I have the gaskets and pushrods and everything just waiting for the cam. I just read in another thread that it was four weeks for the cam. if that is true it sucks real bad 'cause I need this put back together sooner than that.

 

yeah, 4 weeks is about right. They warned me before I bought it though, so I had time to prepare. Did you order over the phone or online?

 

Online. my whole build is waiting on the cam and it is my daily driver for now, so 4 weeks sucks bad. The worst problem is I blew a head gasket and that is what started the whole thing. now I have the top end and front of the motor tore apart waiting on the cam. but I'll just have to wait.
thanks for the input

 

I dont know much about the F13 cam but i know i want the heads you got. i too would like around 425-450 rwhp. i could get heads i guess some time, but i need to get a new intake too. too much cash man. its crazy. I hope you are pulling the engine to do the swap. if you arent, you are going to have a hell of a time. it sucks bad.

 

i'm self porting my heads. With the machine work, cam, valves ect all hardware and gaskets i'm looking at about 1400 for a boost to 420ish HP.

 

or you could spend $900 and get a set of professionally ported LS6 heads...assembled and ready to go.

:blah:

but it is cool to say you ported them yourself

 

I dont get it, where can you find those!? I have never seen any for any cheaper than 1200

but i'd still rather save the money and sacrifice maybe 10 hp or so

 

ask and though shall recieve

actually...looking at it closer, they come equipped with ls6/ls2 springs, which are only good to .550" lift.

i guess tack on another $150 for cc918s or $250 for prc double springs.

guess that makes the price ...not quite as good...but still porbably a better flowing head than some hand ported stockers...for a bit over $1k

edit...
hm..the more i look at that, the more i realize that they are $1000 for the heads with the competition porting, then you'd need to upgrade springs.

well....maybe it isn't such a good deal.

besides...those things have some masive intake runners...or so i'm told...
