if building up a new lt1 4 bolt block, how much power is possible?
i know a major variable is how much money is spent, but just curious if an lt1 can be built with comparable power to an ls1 motor???

thanks

I have 485RWHP on a ALL MOTOR LT4 - like you said.. how much $ do you have...

 

I have not een 400hp and I can pull off mid 11s, a few thousand well placed bucks will get you there

 

I've seen a stock 4-bolt LT1 block (with upgraded caps) with no fill, make 1,125 flywheel HP on a blown 383 running 20+ # of boost. And it ran that way for a couple years with no problems.

 

Wow that is impressive!

 

ok, 1125hp is a little more than i am looking for!!

i would like 500-600 when all is said and done. and i know that means building a new motor from the ground up. and actually, that is better because i can still drive the car while i'm building the motor!!

so how much money, ballpark estimates, to get that much power??

thanks

At least 10,000 if not significantly more. Will be going all motor? Nitrous? Turbo/Super ?

Plan on spending ALOT of money.
