A mild 460 BBF can hit the 500hp mark EZ with Torque to boot. And well over 500+ cid
And when you stuff that between the shock towers of a Fox-body stang that can weight in at under 3000lbs with the BBF, that CAN become a tall order to try and fill.
An LSX answer to that IMO would be a big c.i.d. LSX (440+). there is no replacement for displacement. you will need to get that F-fody on a diet and get the suspension hooking.

Problem solved ? I'd do the 440 with LS7 heads, or L92 flow great for the cash..
Themack56 is selling a MID sleeved ls1 block. The MID ls1 block could handle anything N/A up to 454 ci . Any quesitons about the sleeves, contact Steve @ RED.
Then +1 put ur ride on a diet n make sure it hooks up !
With that boat anchor between the shock towers, I bet even he has a problem hooking up !

All ls motors are physically the same external size, regardless of CI. The only difference is the tall deck blocks, and honestly most people even on here would not notice the difference iwhen it is installed in the car.
