Default The LS has won me over....in Kansas

I have always been a nitrous guy... But i have been planning a switch to turbos for awhile now. In the process I have realized that the LS series is superior many ways. Im leaning toward a LQ9, but i am here to learn the ins and outs. Thanks in advance for all your help and input Travis

Welcome to the site. The LQ4 seems to be the choice for boosted application
with 9.5 comp dished pistons. Many on here put a good used 02-04 ZO6 cam
in with aftermarket valvesprings for a streetable 8-9 lbs of boost on 93 fuel.
BTW how far from Claflin, KS are you ?? Knew some dirt streetstock racers
from there...Cates Brothers (Barry and Donny)

I don't know your background, but I may know a few people in the area that can help you.

Derby is just south of Wichita... Thats a pretty good drive from Claflin. probably 3 hours...I was looking at the lq4 too. not sure yet . i may just find me a 6.0 block and go from there...?
