LT1 to LT4! ok, I got a almost stock LT1 and I was thinking of getting an LT4 for it..
so any of you guys had this LT4 on his ride kindly inform me how is it? I read months ago that the LT4 gives +425HP on the engine and 350HP on wheel!
so does it really gives all that HP?

I think you are referring to the LT4 conversion kit. It comes with LT4 heads and LT4 Hot Cam. With a manual tranny and tuning 360 RWHP is a achievable. However, there are alot better cams out there than the Hot Cam that produce much better power levels.

I suggest a GM 847 or Comp Cams 306 if your planning on some street duty miles. 3000 stall w/ 2.5 str or maybe higher, also depending on the rear gear ratio, full exh, 52mm TB and a good set of AFR195 heads or TEA Stg 2 or 3 and a tune from PCMforlessor do it your self if you can. Granted, you will need more minor bolt-ons but this is a major component list. Or if $$$ is not an issue, buy a motor from street & performance w/ pcm. quick, easy and damn powerful (and looks good too). Oh, then you could add a little shot of juice to tame those unweary vipers. If you want the quick and slightly cheaper hp, STS turbo is a good start.
EDIT: and if money is definately not an issue, see engine below. Falconer V12, available in 600 or 1100 hp, fuel injection, self contained pcm, 8 3/4" longer than sbc v8, and it will fit in f-body. redline 6200rpm.
