LME is seeing 515 to 530 rwhp running stock L92's w/ dual spring upgrade. This is with both the 408" iron and 402" LS2. LME is using a Wiseco custom piston and ring combo w/ L92 valve pockets that are 5cc's. The piston also has a 4cc dome that matches the L92 chamber. This allows 11.5:1 with no milling of the heads. 11.75 to 12.0:1 is obtainable with minimal milling of the head.

Dont know about stock L-92's, but we will have some numbers on ported L92's and a 408 very soon.



Cam is not giant for this; 24x's, .61x.
Planning on spraying 300

I have personally seen 430/390 through a 4l60e with a 3600 yank sst converter on a mustang dyno.

If you where running better headers (i.e. 1 7/8) you likely would not need all that cam to make the same power. also most of the port work on those 367 or so cfm heads was done on the exhaust side. That is where the LS3/L92 heads really need work! And.... yeah, they will make more power thens stock ones.
