I just went all out ls6. mahle pistons, eagle rods, arp studs, patriot heads.Originally i wanted ls2 block, l92 heads but ended up going turbo so this setup can make more than enough power. There seems to be so much support since its been around for a few years that getting parts and info is real easy.

You need to call LME and speak with Brian. He'll build and price for you what ever you want. Their website doesnt do them justice.
