Default Zo6 Block?

What can a ZO6 block or should I say LS6 block be honed out too or bored out to? what is the stock bore. Without having to resleeve. found nothing on searcg only bay to bay breathing?

And also what would be better with nitrous heads and cam and possible stroker to at least 382. Ls1 block or LS6 block. is the bay to bay breathing worth it?

3.898 bore is stock, most aftermarket pistons are 3.903-3.905, that's about it for increased bore, unless you resleeve

You can go a bit bigger but there isn't any benifit really. The biggest most companies will do is a 3.907 bore, that vs a 3.905 isn't going to make a difference. There have been a few guys that have taken them further but I wouldn't suggest it and most companies wont do it and give any kind of warrenty.
