With out knowing your entire build I'm sure there are few things you can do to go over 500whp. Redbird was at 450 with a bolt on ls3 and was looking for 470 before he sold it and gave me blueballs.
Nope! 10 bolt broke now I have a Moser 9" under there. I have a bunch of small additions like a UD pulley and flowmaster merge. I'm more concerned about trapping over 130 to be honest.

You can do it....but you're gonna have to turn it harder or pull some gear out. And get you a good clutch.

Do you have a dyno sheet you could post? I'm kinda curious about your power curve.

Thanks! I had a shop do it for me. I believe the heads and intake are bigger than an LS1 so there is very limited room now. Spark plug 8 has to come out from under the car.



H/C LS1's are making 490? I thought they were more around 445?

It has a pretty mild cam in it now so drivability is nice and it makes decent power for what it has
You had a shop to the swap for you? How much does a shop charge for an engine swap? Do they basically charge you as if its a whole rebuild?

Show me more than 4 examples of a HC LS1 making 490whp or higher please. Thank you.

That's why I am not in here much. I love the actual kill stories but man the same fucktards ruin every thread. I am just killing time until this plane gets here.

Doubt your car will be anywhere near 500whp even full sausage.

1500 for the swap. Powerhaus Performance in New Jersey. Not sure how much they charge now but I was working and going to school full time so didn't have much time or patience lol.

It's a shame they didn't run it on out to 7k atleast. You have damn near about 500rpm of peak power there. Thats pretty good.....should for sure be shifting past 6600. A little tinkering and some this and that and it will be a different animal.
