You can go about it more than one way. The normal for the LS-1 block is the 4.125" bore and a 4" stroke, or you can do a 4.060" bore and a 4.125 stroke in a iron block. The aluminum block will have to be re-sleeved. which is expensive, and the iron block will have to be sonic tested if you go 4.060". The block itself is no diffrent on the outside, so all current accessories will work back. As far as internal parts, you'll want to upgrade to ported heads, cam, lifters, headers, etc.......
