I know that many ls1's are able to get into the 600rwhp range on the stock bottom end, but what are you guys making on the stock bottom end?

I'm making 538/502 with a auto, converter unlocked- DIY turbo
Last year it made 568/518 with the 6-speed and Procharger. A good tune and meth has helped keep my stock bottom end alive this long I'm sure

holy cow!!!! There is a guy who is selling a car for 25k (GORGEOUS CAR btw) that is making 520rwhp on a forged motor with boost. I guess I probably will walk away from that one, as I should probably be looking at one that is at least in the 600+ range.

Stock bottom end is a stock shortblock. Stock crank, pistons and rods. I think a lot of guy swap to 6.0 heads on a stock shortblock to make 500+ rwhp.

it can (i believe ) be added back on , esp with all the people now using a custom made dryer lines.. most of the parts can be bought from the FS for cheap...
But good luck to you and your search

I made 660 rwhp 650 rwtq on my stock short block. All i had was teh Phamspeed turbo kit lq4 heads a small cam and springs. ALso fuel but thats not helpin HP as much as it allows it lol. My power was through a 6spd on 12 psi and race gas as i wasent there to see if i coudl break it lol. Off race gas i run teh same boost just 5* less timing. Never dynoed it like that but it cant be less then 600.
As far as that car for sale that u make reference to, If they have a forged engine and a turbo system and they are only makin 500ish hp then they are FARRRRRR from teh limits of the engine. Most cheap forged engines will handle 800 rwhp all day long. I dunno the size of the turbo/turbos that the car ur talkin about has but if the guy put a forged engine in it im imagining that he has turbos in there that are big enought to support more then 500 rwhp lol. GL man
