5.3 or 6.0

I figured I would bump this back up, the motor is getting pretty close to being complete. I did go with a 6.0 if anyone was wondering. (probably closer to a 6.1 actually now lol)

Since I started this thread I've got to drive 3 buggies with big boy (to me) motors ( from the 450+ - 550hp) range. Pretty happy with my decision thumb.gif.

I will let Patrick elaborate on all of the goodies as some of it is Chinese to me. 450 should be a conservative estimate on the hp, but we are both hoping for a little more. I will make sure to actually dyno it once it is time, I know there's enough (500hp 6.0s on here with a cam and tune lol)

it'll be easy to make good hp. mine is a legit 500+hp (heads, cam, headers, tune). you'll love your decision. :dblthumb:

Broady's motor is a .030 over (6.1) lq9. Block decked, heads cut, crank polished, h bearings, Howard's camshaft, heads Have a good race quality valve job, with 31lb injectors and polished billet fuel rails. Machine work is better than your standard automotive machine shop as well. Ring seal is key.

nice! :smoke: seriously thinking about a trip to Indiana musclecar this winter for a stroker kit for mine. I'm concerned how well the th350 will hold up after that

Probably be good as long as you arent doing nuetral drops at 6k and have a good cooler. I was told from a very knowledgable person who is a go to guy in the Southeast.

definitely don't do neutral drops, have a good cooler and adding another just in case. thanks. if you mind me asking, can I get the name of that person? I'd like to know who to send my th350 to when I need it rebuilt. it has a sprag upgrade and red clutches already, but not sure if anything else is needed.
