Thats what I was thinking. It can't be done by just boring the cylinder. You can only bore a LS1 .010

So then you lied about the intake you have on the car? If you have a LS6 intake then you don't have a fast!! Either someone is bull shitting you or you are trying to bull **** us!! Either way there is alot of bullshiting going on!!

Please learn your car parts and what a LS1 can do before you post. Thanks Management!!
