I took the shortblock to school and disasembled the bottom end and was very dissapointed

















#6 rod connecting rod bearing took a dump, must have had an head gasket/oiling issue was overreved.

So after all this and 30 minutes of being pissed off, I decided to build an LS7 and stroke the **** out of the motor. Im leaning towardsa texas speed 7.0 kit, with that in mind I want to get atleast 427 Cubic Inches out of her. The motor almost weighs as much as the stock KA24de





I decided on this Rotating assembly

Texas Speed & Performance rotating assemblies offer the best durability with the best pricing available! Our 438 and 441 C.I.D. LS7/LSx rotating assemblies come standard with your choice of a forged Callies Compstar 4.10" or 4.125" stroke crankshaft, Texas Speed & Performance H-Beam 6.125" connecting rods with ARP 8740 rod bolts, and Mahle-8cc flat-top pistons, wrist pins, and plasma moly piston ring set. Callies offers both a 4.10" and 4.125" stroke crankshaft, which we have listed. All of the piston sets listed will work with either stroke crankshaft; The 4.10" stroke crankshaft will require a slightly shorter block deck height vs. the 4.125" in order to achieve a "zero deck" setup.

Need a new block or you need to sleeve the LS1 to be able to fit pistons in there over 3.905" diameter. You can fit up to a 4.125" stroke in there, though, which would give you a 395cid engine out of the LS1.

The only problem is your ring lands would be pretty shallow. For an NA motor it's fine.

do you think its better to invest in a LQ iron block to bore pistons out?
