Get a truck LQ4 6.0L or LY6 6.0L it will have lower compression ratio than the car LS2 for more boost, plus it will be way cheaper! Ethier way figure the Gen III/IV motor will make way more power than the SBC.

true, but i have been doing my build research and if i build the sbc thats in it the way i want to vs getting the 6.0L and building it to accommodate the boost i will be around the same price. but now im stuck between going carburated or fuel injected. the engine bay will look much cleaner with the carb set-up and also easier to tune vs the fuel injection set-up.
