Forged 370 or 346? I am in a big debate with myself on what to get. Whichever one I go with will have forged rods and pistons. I know the 370 will add a little weight, but would it be worth it?? I plan on spraying about a 150-200 shot on it. I have a set of TEA stg 2 LS6 heads and I plan on getting a 90/90 setup also. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would go with the 346. In N/A form I dont think the 370 would make enough power to cancel out the 90 something extra lbs it gives you. The AL blocks are plenty stong as long as your not trying to set any records.

You can put a decent amount more nitrous through a forged aluminum block, so I wouldnt worry about it. If you wanted more cubes I would go with the 383 like said above. As for the cam, I would either research here to find out what others have ran with similar setups, call Ron @ vengance, or have Patrick or Predator do it.
