Some are lucky, some not so much...

I ran over 500RWHP on mine for a few years with no problems. Also, it depends on how you treat it.

Just curious on how much power you have seen on the stock LBZ rods & pistons?

~600rwhp, but everything depends on tuning.

Shouldnt you have been asking questions like these before you dropped $13,000 on the other things? You cant put the cart before the horse.

I have been asking for a while now and some say you'll be good some think it's going to blow. But I hope for the best. I have the best tuner. Guess if it goes then it's just to upgrade. :)

Yes yo're right. That's ok maybe I'll be one of the lucky ones.:thumb:

....and again, thats what we ALL said in the beginning. :roflmao:

I dunno...just seems your impatience is getting in the way of your common sense. Anyway, have fun with the triples.

555-622rwhp but only on dyno days and at the track. 99% of the time my truck runs on a stock tune. 68k miles, tuned with somthing since 8k.

The motor will be out already why not go head and see what the extra cost would be to have Trent build it now.

Oh I checked and it's like 10k more so not really want to throw that much more at it right now. Soon I might not have a choice though. I was curious what others were seeing as far as problems and how much power.
