Motor Went Bye Bye, Need Opinions
Ok my motor went around 6 months ago and the car has been sitting since. It didn't like the nitrous hit. I haven't tore it down yet, but am looking at doing a new motor in it.
The Old Mods are
Current mods are
Vortech V9-G Trim Stock 3.125 Pulley
Speed Inc Si 5 Cam 231/237 112lsa
Comp hardened 7.4 pushrods
Pacesetter Headers
Magnaflow Exhaust
60# Injectors, Dual Walbro GSS342 - 255's
Vigilante 3600 Stall
TCI Shift Kit
3.42 Gear Ratio
Moser Axels
Mac Girdle
Mickey Thompson Et Street 26x11.5 17
With That The car dyno'd 470hp/475tq
I have been looking at buying one of these blocks,

Then getting a reman crank from

Then getting some forged pistons/rods from SpeedInc more than likely along with this cam
SC4 234 240 .576 .588 114
Thinking L92 Heads with LS3 intake. I am going to be using a 2.5 pulley for more boost and hoping to spray a 100-150 shot on top of it.
I am keeping my Vortech along with my Pacesetter Headers, Magnaflow Exhaust,60# Injectors, Dual Walbro GSS342 - 255's,Vigilante 3600 Stall
TCI Shift Kit, 3.42 Gear Ratio,Moser Axels, Mac Girdle, Mickey Thompson Et Street 26x11.5 17
Anything that you can see I am missing besides fuel railes, and timing chain, oil pump, other accessories?

if it where me id get a 408 short block from tsp and transfer everything over, it would probably cost close to about the same as to what you are wanting to do with your blown motor, you get more cubes and it would be able to handle the nitrous and supercharger

I will more than likely start calling sponsers on here in a month or so to try and nail everything down and get everything ordered. I think I will be getting speed density tuned at http://www.sho-mespeed.com/dyno though.
