wish i could afford one lol. But then again id rather build it how i want it and id rather do as much as i can myself. I love my small blocks. I know there is no replacement for displacement but still thats one of the largest streetable gm small blocks possible other than a 454 sbc, which is pure race.

i would go with a 540ci with the works afr heads holly dominator all forged bottom 11:1 compression somewhere in the .600 lift. or maybe a streetable turbo motor that would be sweet. getting my car to handle all the power would be the problem.

The December CHP was like a toy catalog with the "LS motors decoded". My fave is the 427 ci LS7 "The end product of all this pimp hardware is a motor that revs freely to 7,000 rpm and spits out 505 hp, which makes it the baddest naturally aspirated small-block ever built". Then there is the LS9 at a modest 376 ci, 638 hp and 604 lb-ft.
