Ok I have about $15,000 to $25,000 to play with. I want to build a motor but I am torn on going Turbo or N2O. I was thinking if I went Turbo I would go with a Forge 347 or 370 and if I went N2O I would do a 382 or bigger. I hit the track as much as I can and don't drive the car to much. But I would like to be able to drive it on the street's with no problem if and when I would take it out on the weeken. So here is what I already have a 2000 WS6 M6 with 55,xxx miles on it and I have had it for 4 year's bought it with 46,xxx(Told you I don't drive it). I already have a Moser 9 inch with 410,31 spline and alumnium center section. I also have all UMI suspension TQ arm w/DSL,LCA,PB,Rear Sway Bar,K-Member,Lower A-arms and I am ordering subfram connector's,QA1 Shock's all the way around with 300lb front spring and maybe V6 or stock springs in the rear. I also already have a Fast 92 Intake and Fast 92 TB. So if you were me and you had this money what would you do????? I need to make a choice soon because the wife alrady gave me the ok and if I don't start doing something she is going to go shopping with my money

 

put it all in the stock market now that it's in the gutter and in 2 years buy yourself a ferrari

look into VISA stock, wait for it to drop under 50 then BUY BIG

 

can you say LS7?

 

I would do full bolt-ons, heads, cam, and forged internals for some nitrous to spank ferrari's all day

 

Yeah I just talk to the guy's at CMS and it look's like I will be doing a 402 with all the goodies and a nice N2O shot But also thinking about a 427 too LOL

 

If you have that much money to spend go with a ls-7 427. I built an ls-1 427 for my 90 RS the hard way and it cost me over 14,ooo (motor and F.A.S.T. xfi only.) I couldnt be happier, but keep in mind, you will break stuff!! (transmissions mostly....) If you have money left over, turbocharge it!! My RS on DOT drag radials will lift the wheels on the street and still will get 19 mpg!!! Good luck!!

 

i would throw in there a LS7! i cant stop loving that engine

 

Twin turbo or supercharged.
Build a motor not a drug addict.

 

When do we get to see pics of this thing?

 

ummmmmm.... what?

why don't YOU build a motor.




to the OP. do a budget build, that's ALOT of money to spend into a car that you will be "convinced" your bored with 2 years from now... face it, it happens to all of us. invest some of it.

 

Forged LS2 402 bottom end. L92 heads, L76 intake, custom grind cam, full bolt-ons. You should be able to get a safe, reliable 500 rwhp if built correctly. Then add the bottle for when you want to have some extra fun.

 

Throw in a C5R motor in there and be done with it Fast and reliable!

 

big ci. and a turbo cant go wrong with that..

 

if u have 25 save up 25 more and get your self the nre tt lsx 454 2500hp!

 

Great advise, but there are waaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy better buys out there..........

 

Well I am not going to put all the money into my car because I am going to pay off some left over bill's too. I am going to repaint the car and get some new drag wheel and some summer wheel's too. This is my baby and I want it done right. I have a daily driver and my wife has her 07 GMC Yukon so the WS6 is are track and weeken car.... I am still thinking on what I am going to do but I am really doing my homework too

 

Did you just re-enlist or something?

 

and or an F1R...def start with a decent size stroker and beefy drivetrain...402 or bigger...whats is gonna be built with, LQ9...LS2 LS3...?

 

CMS has put out some sick 402s. That is what I would do if I had money

 

Good choice, I'm sure it will put a smile on your face when it's done. They are doing a mild 427 for my GTO as we speak.
