Default LS1 Guru's....

Ok guys, my car didnt sell so I am planning its future....

Who has good power handling LS1 longblocks? Turbo or NOS setups?

Do they make a Intake for the LS1 to make it carbed instead of injected?

if I keep it injected, how about a harness to control the motor and a turbo setup?

I dont know what route I am going to take, just trying to see what it would cost to go Turbo LS1...

Your probably better off going with a iron block if your looking to make big numbers. Numerous companies make carb intakes, including GMPP and edelbrock. On the harness, your prpbably best to go with a stand alone set up, rather then trying to use the factory pcm set ups. I'm running Big Stuff 3 and have had no issues with it. Wheel 2 wheel and a few other companies run BS3 on all their 1000+ hp turbo cars also.

I'm not a Guru.. but here's my take...
-Livernois, Wheel 2 Wheel, Late model Engines are a few of the big name Builders..
-yes they make carbed intakes
-Big Stuff 3 has a kit and harness (David has) to control everything.

Yeah, they are sooo overrated. I don't know why anyone would waste money on those engines. LSx's were touched by the hand of GOD, didn't you hear?
