Motor Build input..
Motor Build input.. Just wanted to get some of you all's input on which motor ya'll would go with... been thinking of either going with a 402 or just a forged Ls1, nothing real monsterous planned as far as making a gazzillion Hp, just would be set up for a pretty healthy dose of Nitrous, possiblly a good amount of boost.... which you guys think, 402 or LS1?? both would either be backed by a TH350 of TH400 with a 4k stall..

I would definitely recommend an HKE iron block 408. Ours was very street friendly and would have loved a shot of gas. It was a high 9 second car on motor and we beat the hell out of it. We are currently having it freshened up as a back up and have NO plans of selling it. It was the investment I've every made.
Call Erik at HKE and don't look back.

Forged 9:1 347, stock crank, stock heads, stock manifold, stock TB, then buy a D1 Procharger with the money you saved. Make 550rwhp with a simple Walbro and 42lb injectors. Then you have 800rwhp potential and stock driveability while you save up for fuel system/rear end/suspension.
Or....
You could buy my LME/Trickflow 408 for $7000 and I'll tune it for free. The motor was around $10k and has 5000 miles, probably makes 540rwhp n/a.

OORRRR, You could sell your car as is..lol.....bank prolly wouldn't loan me that much though...think my cap room on a loan is right at 10,500 and that's IF they will give it to me...ORR....as a roller with the trans would work for me...lol
Or you could swap some dished pistons in, sell the n2o and run a 88mm on the 408 
If you want to make some extra $$$ do a H/C swap in my car lmk Last edited by streetassasin; Jan 27, 2009 at 02:54 PM.

I dont have a stall in it cuz the trans is slippin bad on the 1-2 shift and 2-3 shift and I go want to risk the trans grenading and taking out a $700 stall. Im using most of my income tax on the car. Check out the thread I started in general lsx

I think you should buy mine.Save yourself time,money,stress from not knowing how much hp your going to make.530hp to the tires in a 6 speed.I would install it for an additional 500.
