looking to see what the horsepower limits are for the LS1 with
a good forged bottom end and a safe tune. i have a 97 C5 and really
don't want to make it front heavy with an LQ9..... so i would like to build
an LS1. my goal is 700 rwhp........ would this be obtainable ? thinking pump
gas with some torco additive .

i would say that is very attainable with a forged bottom end, hell, people take the ls1 to 550 or so on stock bottom end.

You can get 700rwhp with a LS1 block. Theres a few guys doing it on here. SSmokin01 is making around 750rwhp on his LS1 block. Get you some wiseco pistons, K-1 rods and use the stock crank and you will be good to go. Use ARP studs too.

700rwhp shouldn't be a issue.

700 should be easy with a D1SC

easyvette put down 771/700 w/ a 383 and D1 on 14# of boost.

it would have put more down but it wouldnt hook up on the dyno very well.

Im sure that is with meth. How many cubic inches do u need 383 402 etc with a d1 with out meth and lets add without a front mount intercooler just twins.
