Hey Stroker Ace, I checked with a friend of mie who builds Race engines in Midland Texas. He told me that my Little Idea on swapping the crank and rods is just crazy enough that it just might work any way. According to him he told me to use a bigger cam and replace all the valvesprings and lifters to LS1 LS6 stuff. He also told me to go with a F.A.S.T. Intake and ported throttlebody. Also he told me to go up a couple of injector sizes and to make sure and rebuild the tranny and add a stall. According to his desktop engine builder software it should yeild right at 455 hp and 460 ft lbs of torque. Which would be like almost 300 or more at the wheels. I will post more info as i get it.
