SPONSORS - 427 Forged LS3 Shortblock

Tried contacting a couple of sponsors on here and didnt receive any reply, so I'm throwing it out to the public. Looking for a 427 LS3 shortblock for a forced induction setup (76mm Turbo/3.6L KB). I am deployed to Afghanistan so PM is my primary contact method at this time.

I am buying a block by the end of this week. Just need someone to contact me with my options and what combination would work best for running big boost with 76mm Turbo/3.6L KB. I am currently using a Lethal Z cam from Thunder Racing and would be reusing it in the new shortblock. Looking to make 850rwhp. 15psi?

If you are going F/I then don't go 427ci instead go 416ci so you don't have to overbore the cylinders. With F/I you want as much cylinder wall thickness as you can get.

If you were in California I could have it done for you but being that you are from Texas you may be better off going local.

Can't believe that Texas speed has gotten back to you, if you PM'd them. They are right there in Houston, I believe.

Lme builds good motors. If you go 427 that 76mm Turbo will be too small.

HKE builds some top notch stuff also. are you looking for a brand new build or a used 427 LS3? I have a friend who might be selling their LS3 427 powertrain to upgrade to another engine.

trust me, the 416 and the 76mm turbo will be plenty for a street car.

I just had a 418ci done at Texas Speed and it is on its way home today. They are top notch guys and communication is best I have dealt with. I highly recommend talking to Jason at Texas Speed as you will not beat their pricing either.

I'm deployed and actually sent Jason and Jon emails, but didnt receive any reply. Its been a few days now. Typically I'd just call over there, oh well.

Just an update looking for a 418ci, with 8.5:1-9.0:1 compression. Will be running a D1SC Procharger (just ordered it last night).

Yes HKE was my first choice, but I've been trying to get ahold of them for a week now. They are typically THAT busy so I wasn't surprised.
