The motor that is in there is a 6.0 LSx stock block with a few ARP bolts in choice spots. The new built motor that is going in is a fully built 5.3 iron block with all the best forged parts. Its capable of holding over 1200+ hp at the wheels. I only want 1000hp at the wheels and will keep it there to to stay on the safe side. Should be quite a hand full

I can't see why he would forge a 5.3 as you'd have to get custom pistons for that.

I bought the motor already built. I thought the guy said it was a 5.3 but I will check. It was going to be used in his street car under a BIG turbo. Bigger than mine

and he was going to run 1200 at the wheels. I will find out and post up
