Anyone know how much horse a stock bottom end can hold?? I just bought a reconditioned lt1 (357) basically stock but with forged pistons. Anyone know what kind of horsepower this might handle. I am looking towards either the LE2 or LE3. Thanks

Stock crank isnt a problem, stock rods on a n/a set up like that isnt either, if you plan to leave it NA, then it should last a very long time. Even on a 150-200 shot, as long as the tunning is good it should last. PigPen on heres last 383 was a cast crank, stock rods and forged pistons, he was spraying a 300 shot through that thing for the past 5 or 6 years, still running when he pulled it to go bigger and better.
I'm looking at 475-525rwhp on spray... Trending Topics

There are several people floating around running LE2 and LE2+N20.
