was told anything bigger id have to throw a stall in
the Aro is just a toy i have a Caddy STS as my main DD and Im in college so loan payoff time will be around soon
just looking for a budget build
also forgot to get ideas on my oil pump, the LS2 pump is the one of choice right?

I got ya, sorry I didn't see the auto tranny. One trick I learned along the way, before you lift the heads pull the water pump off and take a shop vac and put it over the water pump ports in the block and suck as much coolant out as you can. This will help with getting coolant every where. Also might want to add hardened pushrods to the list.

and picked up the oil today
0w30 European Formula Castrol
i really didnt wanna waste money on a stall as i plan on buying a new Camaro eventually and didnt wanna sink the money into this one
but from what i hear the cam will only leave me wanting more which means id need a stall too
i got about 2500 i can sink into this car for everything
what can everyone recommend then?
