Ive got a 4.065" bore on an LQ4 block, with no filling, and sprayed 150 a few times...no issues at all. its gonna get a Procharger sometime soon. The nitrous is quite a bit harder on the engine than around 12-14 psi of boost will be. I got lucky that my block doesn't have core shift issues though. I have a friend locally who had a 416ci with an iron block (4.065" bore) with an F1A procharger that split a cylinder.

Camster, said it right stay @ .030 over bore You will Not see that much of a improvement if any, but the Reliability of the block will be compromised with anything other than a N/a 6.0 build. Factor in the block is now useless once bored over .065 - .070.
