From the look of it I bet you could get it redone at your local powder coater for probably $150-200. It's almost all in labor. That's a lot of masking.

I haven't gotten replies so far. I assume they'll let me know what's up once they start an official list or something like that? I'm not too worried because the last one of Brian's pre-order lists I was on they called me the day the parts arrived and I was one of if not the first person on here to get the L76 complete package at the door. I'll probably just sit tight unless I see someone else say they are getting a response about a list at SDPC.

Thanks, you would at least think they would send some kind of reply.

Must be nice to get parts in time to build for the next season. Too late for this block for us in 2007.

I hear ya BRO and a perfectly square 482 cubic inch LSX mountain motor with some killer worked L92 heads sounds like the perfect budget buy 650 rwhp motor to me!!! MAN this is some EXCITING ****!!!


The ulitmate budget build would be an ALL BORE quick reving 410 cid LSX motor utilzing the stock LS1/6 crank. Talk about a killer MOTOR on a budget but I need those MASSIVE CUBES and 511 cubes sounds MIGHTY SWEET in the engine bay of my 3150 lb C5 Z06!

Being the all motor guy you are MTI an all bore setup might seem a little more comforting. I on the other hand would be a little concerned obviously taking the block out all the way to it's max when running a poweradder. I'd also be a little worried about ever scuffing a bore and not being able to clean it up. The torque is going to be unreal with these 480+cu blocks though.

Well you can do 4.205" bore with 4.5" crank and still have 500 cubes and .045" to play with for overbore.

I've been reading a lot about parts for my next build and it's going to be expensive enough without the Procharger!
