Lol me to. a good way would be to start with a 6.0iron block or if you want go with a lsx block then build for boost. all forged custom cam, pistons, and a really good fuel system. and if you wanted to go even farther you could go with a standalone engine management system.

fully built driveline, lsx block (wait for the center bolt heads to come out), rearmount, or a custom twin up front mount, or... a really big procharger, fuel to match, maybe a 6 point cage, and all teh supporting mods.

Be suuuuure to use a reputable shop. Ive been shafted so many times I do every thing that I can do to my own car. Alot of shops say they can but they will take on too much work and you could be put on the back burner. Good luck and have fun.
