all motor or forced induction? im trying to decide what route to take! so please give your opions on each side or what u would do or wouldn't do?
Also, if i was to go all motor, and get a set of S2 heads, (5.7 or 5.3 liter?) would they work on a bigger displacment motor like a 422?
thanks jeff

Re: all motor or forced induction? Damn! That IS a tough decision.
If you go FI, you'll prolly want some 6.0liter (LQ9) head to lower the compression. If you go NA, you'd prolly want 5.3liter to raise your compression.

Re: all motor or forced induction? I've pondered this for years. With my set up, H/C seemed like the practical thing to do, but I always wanted a blower.
I ordered a H/C package from Tom at LS1 Speed Inc. today! I didn't shave the heads for higher compression, in case I do want to go booost later.

Re: all motor or forced induction? I'm going all motor, I figure after a cam and tuning, it will be a prett damn nice 2002 LS1(check sig.). Go with your gut though. If I were to get a blower or Turbo, there are a lot or other expences not seen on the surface, got luck chief
