Question Using Vortech SC, Which engine 5.3 or L92?

I have an 03 350Z that I am converting to an LSX platform. I'll be using the F-body Vortech Super Charger with a after cooler and the upgraded T-trim. I've already have a complete 5.3 engine and a LS6 intake plus LS6 cam. The only thing is i don't want to swap the engine anymore cause well it's a pain in the AZZ. First of I would like to make 500-600 rwhp. Should I stick to the 5.3L or go with a L92 engine?

Both can make the power with mods. Its all about what you want and how much you want to pay.

We made 713 RWHP on a stock LS3 in a 2008 C6. It had a RMCR T-Trim kit on it 8lbs of boost a GX5B cam from LG and ARH headers.

I can get a complete stock L92 for 3500 here where I am located. Although i would have to get an LS3 intake or even an Fast 102. I've already have a set of fuel rail + 60lbs motron injectors. I hope the Vortech F-body system works fine.
