Default My 408 LS2 Build is Finished!!!
This LS2 is an all forged 408 stroker from CNC Motorsports with AFR 230 heads, BTR Stage 3 cam, Fast 102, NW 102 TB, and 1 3/4 Dynamax headers out to Borlas. Tom Wong from Wong's Performance Engineering did the assembly and tuning.

It's putting down 520 rwhp and 500 lb torque.

A6 or M6? Nice numbers by the way. CNC Motorsports did my LS3 427 short block. Waiting to have it installed.

I wondered how you had shrunk that LS3. Hope you post it up here when it's done.
