Default 370 and d1sc

im looking into building this combo for my 2000 ss. im trying to do this on a budget so i was thinking of the 370 from speed inc and the full d1sc kit with all fuel components from etp. i want to reuse my ls6 intake and buy a set of stock 6.0 heads. how much boost could i safely run with these heads? also how much power can this setup handle and what would my compression ratio be also? is anybody running this setup? any input would be greatly appreciated?

thanks, Brian

If you stud the heads they'll take pretty much all the boost that the blower can throw at them. Depending on how you order the shortblock will determine your compression.

I didn't think anyone was selling 370's anymore. Are you buying a shotblock or a rotating assembly?

the 6.0 heads w/o milling usually drops a stock ls1 1 point of compression and be around 9.5.1 which is why they are popular for stock block FI guys. With a 370 you can change the compression to whatever you want based on the heads they can change up the pistions to fit your needs.

Brian, take a look at these builds. The D-1SC will be maxed out in the 16 psi range or so, which is about all I'd push the stock heads. We usually build our engines for a 9.5/1 compression ratio.

This ProCharger D-1SC kit has everything you will need, although to run 700+ rwhp you will need a larger fuel system. http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com....html?item=798 Bob

i was looking at the 370 short block from speed inc. what would my compression ratio be with that setup and some 6.0l heads. since im getting the full d1sc procharger kit that epp sells im covered with the fueling part. im also planning on using the epp cam. how much power does the m6 hold up to in these cars? im guessing il have to detune it until i buy a bullet proof tranny.

You probably could pick out whatever compressation ratio you like if you call them and talk to them. Tell them what heads you plan on using and they can guide you in the right direction.
In one of my previous builds I used the stock 317 heads on a 402 with a D1SC. The blower was maxed out at about 16lbs.
