I know it isnt really a budget block, but its just sweet. They made it so that the weekend racer could rebuild his block several times. With .25" worth of boring that you can do you can just keep rebuilding.
Maybe my best bet is just to get an LQ9 block and rebuild it.
Honestly, like i said, I really just want to be able to use the L92 heads and L76 intake because they're so freakin cheap. The LSX block is just a stout block that can take years of abuse. If it would be a much better idea for me to get an ls2 block or an lq9 block then i may as well just do that. Im not going to run any boost and i probably wont run any juice. But i would like to have a high spinning NA motor.

I am still a long way off from actually building an engine. Since the LSX wouldnt be a budget item, i guess i should go for a LQ9 block. How would you rate the eagle 408 rotating assembly?
If i were to use an LQ9 and a 408 kit, then how well would the L92 heads and the L76 intake optimize it...on a budget persons mind?
