Forged pistons and rods to take up to 1200hp I believe. They may only be available for the LT1/LT4's though. I'll have to find out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well any forged piston should handle that to be honest. The hard part is installing them with the motor still in the engine bay. Damn near impossible to get the oil pan off without cutting part of your k-member off

My buds mrimpala02 and CGbambam are just looking out for me
I went to the website but did not see the forged piston/rods package for the LS3 so . . . I continue taking my chances. The truth is, that LS3 is a mean motor

Even on the smallest bottom pulley and a restriction plate in the F-1X suction tube, the car still runs like a scalded dog.
The axle came in yesterday so I should be able to get it changed out sometime next week and I will be back in business. I need to put a few miles on the car so the ProCharger break-in oil can be changed before 8/26. I don't think I even have 200 miles on it yet since the install.

I am thinking about going with a 15" rear brake conversion. My BMR race suspension is already set up for the 15".
Anyone have any negative thoughts about going with a 15" set-up? I plan to be READY for the 8/26 track rental and I am cautiously excited about what the car will run. It will definitely beat 10.50 but by how much, I don't know

Get the brakes from carlyle for the 15" conversion, it will save you quiet a penny vs going with wilwood which don't even let you keep your e-brake intact
