I am curious to see what kind of blocks you guys can recomend I have heard the c5 r block other people have told me to go with the Darton sleeved blocks and other s still recomend the cast iron .I would like to keep the car an LS1 not a small block chevy motor .Can anyone tell me what kind of power these blocks can handle ..Does anyone know if there are LS1 powered cars making in the 1200 to 1400 rwh range . Any advice would be appreciated . Thank you

The guy with the convertible has to have over that rwhp also. He is also using the same block and heads.
