If you're looking at strictly NA for now than I would suggest going to Erik for one of his re-sleeved LS2's that he takes out to 460".. that's the route I would have gone if I had the money to.

You should not have a problem running 12:1 compression. That is what I am running. My SS runs exellent on Sunoco 93.

That's moving out pretty good, especially if you're trying to get there on motor.

I'll be back, not sure if it will be next summer or not, but I'm looking for 8.50

Shouldn't be a problem. I've been goign 9.50 with a 402 that makes about 450 at the tires on a single 65 jet at about 3400, you're looking at 200 more motor hp them I'm making and anothetr 50 hp of nitrous, that's plenty to make up for a few hundred lbs.

its been awhile since ive read this thread. put a lot of things in perspective for me.

btw, i haven't seen any info yet on the forums about it but what is up with the lsx 470ci option on texas speeds site? how come no one is considering those?

well see how could the next few yrs are for me. if i could do it i would go with the 460 from you erik .
