Build your dream with LSX, available March 2007.
2500 hp, holy crap.

I'm thinking that the 4.25x4.25 (stock deck height) is the way I'll go. 'Bout 483 cubes if my math is right. Will chevy be making a crank also? Just wondering whether to go turbocharged or N/A. That will infuence the piston choice.
I'm thinking a fairly "mild" but well built street engine running an easy 10 psi ought to make about 800 engine hp. Yes, I know I'm aiming high......but, she has plenty of time to come up with the $. Guess she needs to ask for a raise when she gets back to work. "It's for a good cause."

Forget forced induction, my plans may be a N/A 483 with high compression. I wonder if some of the engine builders will start offering forged longblocks setup to be retrofit into the 99-06 trucks. I know Texas speed and performance has L92's offered already.
By the time I have the cash to do either there should be some interesting options.
