If you got the $ you can customize and fabricate your 96 f-body and drop in whatever size crate motor you want and i know that GM has come out with their 572 CI. big block that just dynoed according to popular hot rodding over 700 HP and 725 ft/lbs at the crank and i also believe that a 632 Chevy crate motor is available also by one of the aftermarket BB Chevy crate engine builders. For a price, you can go as radical as you can afford! A 572 or bigger CID true big block would be AWESOME in your 96 f-body to say the least!

GO FOR IT-LIFE IS SHORT!

a 572 would definitely be awesome in an LT1 body-style. 502 would be great too, GO FOR IT!

the thought of a 572 in an f-body just gave me chills ......

think of all the t-top poping, rear fender creases, door missaligning, windshield cracking torque.......... good times
