The LS1 motor is the most powerful motor in the entire universe. nothing can beat it. It was touched by the hands of god himself. Rumor has it that gods heart is actually a LS1 on NOS.

If money is a little tight, Pacesetters. If now, Kooks. LS6 intake is good, maybe a 224 cam. Id also fire an x pipe and dynomax bullets or one chamber flows in there as well
