sounds sick. why did you use a 98 tank though? i believe it was 00-02 that used the plastic tanks (thus less weight overall). just curious. should be a killer setup. i want pics!

its approx 20k for the motor, 12 bolt, and everything listed after the turbo/fuel setup. but that also includes shipping, labor, etc...

and then you have the turbo kit, fuel, accessories, etc...

would it be better to have a cast iron block or a cast aluminum with steel sleeves to save weight for a turbo setup?

I guess it depends on what your goals are.

Id rather have something sturdy and not worry about anything, however Harlans block was aluminum and pushing 1200+ rwhp.

My car is a pig to begin with, so I just said **** it(plus I wanted the bigger cubes, 408)

Biggest aluminum stroker that I think you can go with is a 383 or 396, but new stuff is coming out all the time so there might be something else I dont know of.

Actually, come to think of it you can stroke an ls2 motor for 402 cubes...
