Well, at least you have the money! lol

But in all seriousness, what you just said is such a broad explanation. It would be best to take your ideas, put them on paper, then put them on here. That way, if your plans change, then so does your paper and you can update on here.

You want to go fast, who doesnt? But HOW you get there is another story.

Such a wide open question...... Are you wedded to a LS1 block cause LQ4/9 iron blocks are cheap and easy to find...In a straight line a 408/L92 is hard to beat for the dollar. $$$ no limit do a big cube LSX block. I am just gonna stroke my LS1 block to 383 and aim for 475-500 N/A rwhp which will realistically be more than I can ever need on the street and if I get greedy I can add a 150-200 shot.

I need to do a lot of work on other parts of the car first though to even somewhat reliably withstand that HP. Damn money pit....And I thought the boat was bad..........LOL

Dont rebuild it unless it's all your budget can afford.

An LS3 416 would be the direction I'd go in if the budget permits

sell your car and buy a fully modded one..you will save .50 cents or more on the dollar this way...
