Kyle's pushing just a hair over 600 rwhp with the procharger kit.

I imagine anything more than that and you'll want to start going through the block to beef up the usual suspects

Ricer burners are measured in CCs and liters. American engines are measured in cubic inches.

The LS3 engine is 378 cubic inches.

Well... then what's the point?

Just kidding - I know what you mean. It just read funny.

On a side note, the early 2010 SS's had issues with the half shafts. Some people were snapping them at the drag strip without much in the way of modds. I think Chevy addressed the issues later that same model year, however. I have a 1SS, LS3 with 77k miles. I bought it in December of 2009 and haven't had any issues, but I'm still stock power and have only had it on the strip 2 or 3 times.

Get a later build 2010 or newer. Some were having drive train issues with the early build 2010s. Transmission output shafts on the manuals, loose bolts for drive shaft and broken bolts for drive shaft.
