hey guys I got a dilemma
I heard a ticking noise coming from my motor a while back , I figured the worst
so I purchased a ls3 416 longblock with eps cam and ported l92 heads , comp 12-1 and ready for nitrous
I recently tore down the ls6 to see whats going on with it and it seems like a lifter , which im replacing atm , if all goes well the ls6 will be back up its a full prc 227 head fast intake eps cam setup ,
ive been considering selling the ls3 longblock and buying a twin turbo kit and forged pistons , h beam rods and arp main studs
what path would you guys take , its mainly a street car and roll racer , some track days and a weekend car

I had a lot more headaches with my nitrous car than I do with the boost car...
don't have to fill bottles which I don't know what prices are doing where you are but they have been steadily going up here. Along with that the power is always there don't have to hit switches open the bottle make sure the heater has pressure up, I'll agree boost has a higher initial cost hurdle you couldn't get me to go back to a nitrous car now
Also dd'ing the 635whp c6 with boost at the moment while im looking for a new beater and it is great.

i say go FI. the powers always there and you dont have to worry about having to fill a bottle all the time. you'll be good wither way you go as long as you do the setup right the first time. dont skimp out on anything or you'll pay for it later
