Default LS3 6.2L Bare Block

I got my hands on one of these really cheap, what should I do with it? I have a whole procharger kit setting at home, missing the F1A I am going to buy for it but other than that's its a complete kit.

What kind of stroker Can be made out of this block? 414-418 somewhere in that range or can you go bigger? Is it really any different from a LS2 block?

Same **** with bigger sleeves and a 4.1 bore instead of a 4.0. Great for boost IMO. Keep the stock stroke and make it a 377ish. Should rock with an F1A on it.
