Ok so this is my first post on here... Any way I am thinking about buying an old ****** jeep and dropping a LS in it. I am looking to build something like the "LSX ******" I don't have a lot of money to spend so it will have to be done on a budget. I would like to have around 500 wrhp or somewhere in that area. What is my best bet?

6.0 iron block, cam, and cleaned up heads. You will need a fast or ls6 intake as well.

Good cost effective start there. Should be short of your 500 rwhp mark but you're in the ballpark.

Do you think that would put me over 450rwhp?

You're gonna need a good top end to hit the 500 rw mark. 450 is going to be much easier to attain

What rear end and trans are you using?

Automatics and 9"/S60 dyno a little lower than T56/10 bolt cars do.

IMO, don't get caught up chasing a number. Set a goal to build a fun car and reach it.

lq9 + fast intake + custom cam + alot more .injectors ,fuel pump ,ECM tune ,etc .find a nice low mileage 5.3 ,and add a comp 54-455-11 cam for low end torque .

thinking about going with a 4160e. As for a rear end i'm not sure yet, What do you think would be a good choice?
