i was thinking about get me a forge 347. unfortunaly i blew my motor. whiick one do u guys think is a better short block. the one from tsp or the one from thunder racing or which other do u guys think i should use. its going to go in a daily driver but i want to hit it with a big shot every once in a while. any recomendation will be appreciated

 

East side performance did my 347 and they did alot of other fast *** n2o cars. Gary's car (now sold to tim) 382 ls6 block went 8.9
B-Mans budget motor stock crank 125 shot and regular ls1 heads 10.4 @130mph with esp 347
my car has the 346 n2o record. they know what works!!!!!
my new ls2 block is with them right now getting done!!! (said with a **** eating grin on my face!)

good luck either way

LME does pretty good work too.. they specialize in short/long blocks.. for sure give bryan a call.. by the way they are a sponser in here.

 

I Called Tsp And They Told Me That The Block Will Hold Safely 150 Shot. Pushing It 200 Shot. I Thought It Was Suppose To Be A Forge Block. A Stock Block Holds That Much?

 

what ??? that's sad

 

ESP builds great motors, as well as LME and Wheel 2 Wheel. If you are trying to decide just on a block I would suggest the Warhawk block that is built by Dart or World Products (I don't remember which one makes it). That block is badass and is used I believe in Ronny Duke's (Hardcore Racing) insane Trans Am.

Then again, Wheel 2 Wheel went 6's with an LQx block so I guess there's something to be said about those too.

 

my car took 300 for a long time, and many runs.
motor built by esp!!
good rods, good pistions, and a nitrid crank, she did pretty good. just have to specify what shot you want to run

ps, esp= eastside performance

 

Thats weird??? Im getting RPM to build my 347 forged block to handle a 200 shot with H/C set-up. They have built a bunch of motors that spray 200 all the time. Strange that there block is "pushing" a 200 shot?!?! Mine gonna be Forged Pistons & upgraded mains & Rod bolts and a otherwise stock bottom end motor.
