Time for a rebuild. Options? Hey all, I have a 99 SS, m6 with 126k.. Had it since about 89k and in the past few months I've noticed more and more oil in my catch can, a bit of a drop in power and as of recent a rear Main leak. Car has an MS3 cam, your typical top end supporting mods for such a cam, 1 7/8th long tubes, 80mm tb, ls6 intake, worked 241s, MTI lid etc. I was leaning towards a 383 assembly for my block, but building a 6.0 has been on my mind too. What are some of the members here running and what would be more cost efficient in the long run? 430ish whp is what I would like to be making. And suggestions are appreciated

You could go with this so you keep the weight the same. http://www.ebay.com/itm/LS1-LS6-Alum...AAAMXQ8odRHA0B

You can get 430ish power from your motor. Check out the tick torquer stage 2 thread on here. People posted their specs and dyno results. I plan on building the same motor setup you got now but ported 243 heads. And probly tick Cam.
