why? i was thinking the same, but then i figure the hights and thicknes are the same, they are both very strong, but hhmmmmm maybe the steel will help in the head lifting issue.

I would think a steel one would also. Steel alot stronger metal than alum. If I was in your position & running the times with the power your making I would think steel would be the better of the two.

there are some local ls2 strokers w/ juice running 9s.
think the most is 250-shot from memory, but it can handle a lot more, imho.
at least more than an ls1 block which ppl still added dp systems to them.
