what is big power to you?

Any of the LSx aluminum blocks are fine up to about 1,200 FWHP, then you might want to think about going LSX GM iron so you can also use 6 bolt heads.

You can build a bad *** stock cubed motor to handle 700+. I bought a Weber Racing 370 iron block, wiseco turbo duty pistons, ARP main/head studs-2000 rod bolts, stock 6.0 crank and K-1 rods. How much do you wanna spend?

Dart billet block & matching 6 bolt heads for AL, or the LSX for iron.

We have over 1,000 RWHP on a twin turbo 408 iron block.
