Hey everyone I'm usually doing ls1 stuff but decided to start getting into the good stuff, currently I own a wrecked 04 monero Gto m6, I am upgrading that to a gen 4 6.0 lq9 block brand new the pistons I bought are a inverted dome ( boost application) that spec at 4 inch bore with a 4 inch stroke with a 6.125 rod....I know this beast is a stroker but im not sure on the exact C.I. Now that I'm going this rout, I don't have a ton of cash and plan on building this girl all by myself any help will greatly benefit this build along with ideas on cam and intakes I could go with and power possibilities

4.000" stroke+4.000" bore=392.1ci or 6.4L and you said you're planning on boost? how about an LS9 cam? We also need to know exactly what your budget is because when you start talking big cubes and boost vs budget you don't always get what you want.

4 inch bore and 4 inch stroke =402, not 392.

Save some money and get good parts . Even if it takes you longer to build , in the end you will be happier.
