Hey all, so after much debate if i wanted to sell or not ive decided to keep my LS6 stang. Right now the car is a nitrous car. This winter i WILL be converting to turbo. So first thing i need to decide what pistons to go with. I always wanted the car to be a 408 but im curious is it a good idea to do a 408 and boost with stock block? Or should i do something a bit less like a 370,383 ect ect... My goal with the car is 700+ rwhp through a TH400.

Next question would be my cam, right now the car has a TREX cam. Any thoughts on this being used for boost or should i go with something like a z06 cam for boost?

 

bump it

 

You wont be able to do a 408 without sleeving the LS6 block.

It is better to keep the sleeves thick (stock ish bore) with the aluminum blocks because they are stronger that way. Just run a little more boost to compensate for the smaller displacement.

People have made more than 700 fairly easily on the stock bore.

 

Trex can be used, far from optimal though

 

Ok thanks, Ill just sell the cam and pistons that are in the car now, im sure its been asked a million times on here but any recommendations on a cam then?
