Ultimate LT-1.....Look inside!

In the latest Super Chevy magazine, there is an article entitled "Building the Ultimate LT-1 Engine. I have not read it yet, but wanted to give U LT-1 guys a heads-up! Might be worth reading???

already read it actually. Personally I think they are full of crap. I don't see anyway possible they will meet their 500hp goal N/A with a blower cam, blower pistons, and stock LT4 heads. But what do I know

I dont know, I saw a 421 lt1 one time that was written up in a article and it put out close to 550 to the wheels. That would be a badass n/a lt1

oh I don't doubt that. I just mean with the combination of parts they have on this one. Small cam, smallish heads, low compression, I don't see it happening.
