Already have the crank on hand,, open for options ??? Bang for buck !!! Not everyone drag races their cars,justbecause it has an LS engine,,I'm sure there are options on a decent 408 combo, maybe I'm not realestic in my HP hopes,, I've ran lq9's bottom end in my last 2 pro-touring cars,, with ls6 intakes ,fast tb, injectors, TS cam, Patriot springs , head work done,, Where am I going wrong on $$$$ 's ??
