NA build opinions?? I am either going to build a big NA motor or a procharged motor. Right now I am weighing the options on both. If you could build any NA motor using any platform with a budget of about 15k...what would you build? I was really thinking of using the LSX block but haven't thought of a complete setup. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

Since you have such a big converter I would vote for the big cubes NA with the LSX. Thats my new setup in the future. Did you ever run in the King of the Street race in Jackson. I was suposed to with my car but I moved to Illinois. I got a shakedown run on a 125 shot and went 6.39 @ 108 but when I was gonna run that one I was gonna run a dual stage 250. The 125 dry plus 125 wet.

No. I was going to have to have the gas to be competitive with the 275/60s. But with the converter that I had at the time, spraying it wouldn't have worked out very well. I actually didn't race much this year. Alan has done pretty good in the outlaw class.
As far as the converter that is in it, it will be changed with whatever setup I go with. Either setup is going to be too much for my tranny so the tranny will be changed for a th400 or glide. I will get a new converter that will work with whatever setup I choose. But the big cubes NA with a LSX is definately the road I am thinking about taking, if I don't go with a procharger setup.
Nice times....get to the track and run that dual stage before it gets too cold up there.
