Ok Ive totally changed my mind!!!! With the money i would spend buying a new reman LQ4 or lQ9 with install will be a waste of money for only 45-50hp tops...
SO ive decided to either get a 408 LQ9 short block or a 421 LQ9 short block and bolt all my stuff on to it.. I will be getting alot more Hp with almost the same amount of money with a stock LQ9 swap

now your thinking. build the biggest cubic inches you can afford! go with 408 or better man. Also remember like I told you on PT you may need to step up to a bigger SC if you go huge cubes.

yea, and that combo of his didnt last too long either. the 1900 was way to small for his combo! its well suited for a 5.3!! a 6.7L is much too big for a 1900 IMO.

600hp/1900 OR knocking 1-1200hp with a 2300tvs

decisions, decisions, like i said go as big as your pocket allows, you have more cash than most of us trying to go fast. lol

What happened to his 408? I asked and he didnt tell me lmao

Im saying get the 408 and swap it and put the tvs1900 on it for a while and then save money to buy the tvs2300

Haha what makes u say that??
