so if you were going put down some serious power what would be the max bore you would run? You think the block can handle a 4.125 bore for a 427CI?

Would you happen to have a link to that piston or a wiesco part #? I bought my LSX block so now looking for the other pieces. I asked Marty at SDPC and he was unaware and was going to look into it.
