How much power do you think this block can hold?
98 ls1 383
Forged lutani crank
Forged lutani Rods with with arp Rod bolts
Forged wisecracking pistons
Arp main bolts
And headstuds

 

All of them.

 

😂😂😂Lol

 

Jeff built the motor. You recommend him to me. He's a really good dude

 

Yeah, he knows what he's doing. I have a crank over there getting balanced right now.

As long as your tune is good and the bearing clearances are right, I'd think that shortblock would be fine to 7-800whp. I just don't like pushing the stock sleeves that hard though.

 

700 ish.. Maybe. Get ls9 head gaskets and ARP head studs

 

I have the arp head studs. Are you still building your car or is it finished? I seen a few videos of it and when I'm done I'd like to see how I'd run against it.

 

The LS1 blocks had sleeve issues. The block itself should be good to around 1000 HP Flywheel. A couple of guys have come close to that on a bone stock LS1 shortblock.

Unfortunately, the stroker crankshaft just compounds the problem by putting more side-load on the sleeves. Long story short, you upgraded the rotating assembly, which wasn't the weak point to begin with, and only make the weak point even more of a problem to begin with....

 

Gotcha. So if I blow this motor up. I'll stick these parts in a iron block. That should hold up

 

You get your Procharger set up working yet ?

 

It's finished. I'm doing a clutch right now tho. I'll run you NA vs you on boost

 

It's at the tune shop. Ran into a few issues should have them straighten out now.

 

I know you have some major weight reduction. Have you hooked up the spray? We're you doing a 200 or 250?

 

All motor. I'm still piecing my kit together. Ima do a 200 progresive to start off and I'll work my way up from there.!

 

That's going to be crazy. I just sold a lnc2000. I was going to run n2o but cam across a good deal on that charger setup

 

Nice, trying to find out how far to push thing

 

I know I'm about to blow the stock 10 bolt. Already looking for stuff for my 8.8 swap as we speak

 

Ha, just got done installing another clutch today. I love breaking my car... It's still way to fun to drive. Hope you get her back from the tuner running like she should.

 

Thanks man. Because of you I went with the charger

 

725whp or so
