Opinions on LSX 376 B15 Guys Ive been reading this motor is good to 1000 hp at the flywheel, but does anyone know much more about it? I was thinking of installing arp head studs and some katech rod bolts and calling it a day with some fancy head gaskets... My goal is 1000 rwhp. Im currently making 797 rwhp on a stock block ls3
I like that it has forged pistons, rods, and crank, and a 9.0 CR, but I know the pistons are made in 4032 and not 2618
ALSO are there any vendors that can sell this crate engine here for a discounted rate? Cheapest ive seen online is about 7500!
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, just didnt know where else to put it

Built for boost is the best way to describe Chevrolet Performance’s new LSX376-B15 (part number 19299306) and LSX376-B8 (part number 19171049) crate engines. Each is engineered to provide a durable, ready-assembled foundation onto which the builder can finish with the forced-induction system of his or her choice.
For the all-new LSX376-B15, Chevrolet Performance engineers started with the LSX Bowtie standard-deck block, added a forged steel crankshaft, forged H-beam rods and forged aluminum pistons (9.0:1 compression), then topped off the short-block assembly with high-flow, rectangular-port, six-bolt LSX-LS3 heads for supercharged and turbocharged combinations producing up to 15 pounds of boost and up to about 1,000 horsepower.
