Default 370 build ?s

Ok I have done 2 different setups.... now trying to see what are my options and possibly what kind of power im looking at!
Any help/suggestions on a setup would help thanks!

first setup


Block - GM LQ9 Iron block

C.I - 6.0l 370

Stroke - stock 3.622

Crankshaft - Stock LS crank

Rods - Stock 6.098

Pistons - Diamond Pistons LS1 Forged Flat Top Piston set w/ -2cc Valve Reliefs

Rings - Diamond Racing Ring Set, 4.030 Bore

Head Gaskets - Cometic LS Multi Layer Steel Gasket 4.030 Bore

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2nd setup is about the same but a bit cheaper

Block GM LQ9 Iron block

C.I 6.0l 370

Stroke 3.622

Crankshaft Stock LS crank

Rods 6.098

Pistons Mahle LS1314030F04 - Mahle PowerPak Piston and Ring Kit
Rings Included with powerpak

Head Gaskets Cometic LS Multi Layer Steel Gasket 4.030 Bore


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Now head options are either a slight port job on some 5.3 heads and bigger valves like stock size ls1 valves or some manely vavles

or might get some 243s with slight port job!

those pistons will work fine with spray, yall might want to look into some rods though, and possibly even a crank while its all apart
