Had my lsx block for 2 months. Lowest flywheel hp was 1400. Highest being around 1700. Block cracked right down the bore. Right where the new block design is reinforced. I would recommend adding block crete if you are planning to run 1500 or more even with the new block. I won't make the same mistake twice. New style and fill the block.
