Here you go, try this: Iron block 427 8.5:1 je/ross nitrous/boost pistons, stage 3 ported Ls6 heads, custom camshaft, sheet metal Ls1 spyder intake, and a stage 3 GWP ATI blower or incon stage 3 turbos. BAMMMM!

Well, You could always try throwing in a C5R block. Pretty expensive but it might be strong enough. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Any of those will do just make sure it is built with forged and billet everything. Your compression should be down to 9.5:1.
