Okay ran into alot of free time and got some money put together time to do a little drastic move on the Vette.

Looking at doing a 383 Stroker on Nitrous with an open air intake

I need to know how to grind the block down and which kit do I buy?? I got the nitrous thing handled to the "T" and If ANYONE has any suggestions that may help my Horsepower Bid feel free to spill your knowledge on me

I know not to go as far as the water jackets LOL

I've got a Vette magazine article that lists a company that sells complete motors. But what got my attention is the Big Block kit they sell for the C4.

Well Well came back from LPE's website............

........drool

Ok they are god's but I found a couple items I just might do they have a plenum kit and Super Ram Intake system I like also they seem to have they're poop together with the headers

Ringing out my total In Usless North man money I came to about 3000 Buckaroo's

Is there a company out there that "Clones" LPE for cheaper?

Mind you a 383 Stroke on a Super Ram Intake and LPE headers rings out about 450 Hp so far (550 with my magic button)

Thing was I did some digging they'd perfer me to buy their cam setup for the super ram but I was going to go for a lumpier cam anyway so I dunno..

I'd rather save and forward the saved cash on other stuffs but need be I'll go to LPE for some stuff (After my 6 numbers come in she'll be the whole engine package with the Twin Turbo Im sure LOL)

BTW Save The Wave :w

Nothing like having more power!

You will see that $3K turn into dust real fast.

Better get the platnum Visa card on order, cuz you are going to need it.
