Carillo makes the BEST steel rods money can buy. Definitely a good investment.

If you don't mind me asking who did you buy your RHS Block from and how much?

Good luck on your new build, sounds killer! I sold my 1000rwhp ride before I got my Camaro. You'll love the rush!

Have you looked into RHS heads that were designed for that block. I heard they flow very nicely. Look into it to give you maximum air flow.

on Monday, January 24, 2011 dr jamie meyer states in an interview with Performance Business Magazine:

"You can take a crate engine (or junkyard) LS engine, add a basic power adder, and go run 10s or 9s, or even 8s for a very reasonable amount of money."

what are everybodys thoughts about an 8 second junkyard motor?

It's a comment open to interpretation IMO. 8's in what? A stock weight 2010 Camaro? A 2500lb race car? Not doable in one but probably in the other.
