Man! those blocks would really put some lead in the FBI's pencil at the US-41 (CPCC) drag races!! That trophy might as well take up a permanent home with us!

Paul i have not finalized pricing yet but somewhere in the mid $13's turn key using your good stock rods and crank.

Since you already have your heads and intake ported it would be much less.

So do you order the sleeves or send the block out to have them installed?

These are very strong thick sleeves you can Turbo or Nitrous these blocks.
Also corrected some proprietary common LT5 issues that our LT5's have.
We can go up to 4.155 on these.
Looking into making some MLS gaskets for the big bore (4.155)
Thats awesome pete!..Im building closed decks over on the east coast but would love to get sleeves quicker than im getting them now....ill be calling you!!!!![emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2]

Alright, so what does this mean?
I go from 350 to 391 cubes?
Expected HP?
Cost for a build if I'm already at 530HP?

Paul you sure as heck can't take it with you might as well enjoy it while you can.

Steve,600-630HP is what we are looking at.
Plus all the people that have purchased products from me previously will get a 5% discount

Like i mentioned to Paul on a previous post if your intake and heads are already done the price is about half for turn key.

Pete

The 944 series Porsche used an open deck design. The turbo did as well. At very high boost the cylinders move above and the head gasket loses its seal.

People started using drag racing cement and expoxy to stablize the cylinders at the base. Just enough to still allow water to flow. People have made huge power doing this old drag racing trick. 944/951/968 engines were all aluminum similar to the LT5 and is Alusil as the primary material for cylinders. Good thing the LT5 used Nikasil as it's stronger.
