carb ls1

[matt]

ok guys considering building one. need to know what exactly do i need to do this. what kind of power can i expect to make with one with a cam swap? what kind of power can these motors hold?

with the correct cam for your combo you should be able to lay down 420-440
these motors can produce incredible power :mrgreen:
