Looking for someone who has built there LT1 engine to throw up some nice hp numbers. i would like mine to have 400hp plus. i have some ideas of the parts i will be using and would like to talk threw emails so that the posts wouldn't be so long for the board.

Well, there are many ways to go, I went kind of a different way, I should have ~410 or so at the wheels when it is finally done right. I'd say the best way is a 383 or 396 stroker with a custom grind cam, ported AFR210 heads, and long tubes with true dual exhaust, and some tranny work, along with either a 12 bolt or 8.8 inch ford rear, that should be a killer combo.

Search for his posts or contact Scott Chab. He just got his motor back from a build-up and it should be a screamer.
