225's make more sense beyond 402ci.

wait for the LSX block and go damn near as big as you want. Just have some good heads or wait for the LSX heads to come out.

it's still being built. I am trying to get it set-up like yours, but am likely going to have to cut a few corners on n/a power, but still going to slam it with a 300 shot. When my 408 grows up, ti want's to be just like yours. I went with LME also.
