how much horsepower can the stock block handle? whats the biggest turbo kit you could bolt on and be ok with stock internals?

 

The stock bottom end should handle up to 450-500whp with a GT35 or T67. Just make sure its a good tune with out detenation. But you might want look into building up a 2.3 block if you want less turbo lag.

Thanks,

really? i didnt know it could handle that much. i dont plan on having that much power...atleast not anytime soon. i was just curious because i was reading another post about greddy's t67 kit and i thought hmmmm that would be fun! thanks for the info

 

Will 450-500 shorten the engine life span?
