3.898-3.905 (stock LS1 bore) I know some have the block tested before it is bored to insure that there is enough material. It has been done many times.

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Seriously dude, that's such an open ended question with so many variables...

It really depends on how well it's tuned. 50-250???
