LS1 Engine build
Hi All.
This is probably and old topic that has been question many times, but i cant find my answers, so i post this thread and hope that you guys and girls would have some input for me.
I am building my 1997 LS! engine and i am wondering how much hp the block it self can handle.
These are the parts i have :
Trick Flow top end 515-460 kit.
http://www.trickflow.com/parts/tfs-k306-515-460
Fast 102mm big mouth intake with TB
Lunati 4 inch stroker crank
Lunati H-beam rods
Mahle racing 4.065 pistons
MLS head gasgets
APR head studs
ARP Main studs
Melling high Flow oil pump
42lbs injectors
custom made headers
My driveline
T56 magnum 6 speed
C4 rear end
Custom driveshaft and halfshafts ( not recived yet)
I am hoping to reach somewhere around 700HP
Will the block handle this?? or do i have to go for the LS3 block?
Any info is very appreciated
Thanks
