1st, I assume you mean bolt-on parts for this...probably 480-500.

2nd, Most stock engines can accept 7-8lbs of boost safely. At a stock 400hp, this translates into roughly 550hp-600hp.

3rd, 500-600, I'd imagine. But you're gonna shell out a lot of dough the higher your hp goal is going this route.

4th...virtually limitless. But the stock LS3 engine block is rated up to 1000hp, if my memory is correct. Any more than that and your engine is gonna explode.


• Cheap
• Fast
• Reliable
• Pick 2

Obviously, the cheap and fast route is dangerous. The cheap and reliable route will be mostly cosmetic. The fast and reliable route will go as far as your desires and wallet take you. Spend a lot of time and money on every build component, and you will be educated and highly performance-oriented.
