Default The better engine for D1 procharger??

I am wanting opinions on weather to go with a 370 ls2 or a 402 (more stroke). My TA will be mostly on the street and only driven 1 or 2 times a week...thanks!

Who did your motor? I was thinking of going the 370 route and have been looking at who I should have build my short block. First thought is Texas Speed since I have bought 90% of my stuff from them. I want it as bullet proof as possible. The car is a 2000 SS A4.

Also, how much boost are you running?

Thanks,

Bill

Sorry for the thread jack OP.

Weber Racing Engines built my motor. They've had some problems since, but they can build a motor. It saw 16 psi I believe. This was when it was over 100degrees in the shop. It should see 800+ on a cool day and bigger injectors.

Ditto OP, I should have sent a private message.

Let us know what you decide to do on the motor. I am interested in seeing how it turns out.

Good Luck!!!
