I would recommend our 228R on a 112LSA for your particular setup. Should provide a very nice idle and work great with the 3600 converter you currently have in the car. For springs the PAC 1218 .600 lift springs will work fine, and for pushrod length I recommend you measure but a lot of times these setups when paired with unmilled stock cylinder heads use a 7.400 length pushrod.

Nope. I ended up buying a 08 ninja instead. Came out cheaper than building a 370. I'm really leaning towards a budget 4.8 turbo build now.

Cool. If you change your mind on a DD H/C alao do some suspension work. The air/alt there blows. But with a good setup you can keep up with your buddies car. And yes please dont listen to most people out in Odessa /Midland. Not many there know about LS engines.
