How big of a shot are you guys using on a stock bottom end LT1 ? I am thinking of doing 200 or a 175 fattened up. Feedback gang !!!!

I am stil leaning towards the 175. Fran that is right that LT1 will not die no matter how hard you try. I can't wait to see that 396 in there. But if you do blow it there is always the "Burban" or the ""Caddy". The Burban RULES !!!!!

There are a FEW b-bodies spraying up to 200hp single stage and one guy 280 over 2 stages the thing is to have enough heads and cam to flow it and keep it fueled. I have watched guys go from 175jets to 200 and gain nothing because the heads are just peaked out, the stock heads/cam guys will full boltons usually stop gaining past 150.
