Default Going FORGED..Step Inside

First, i will bring everyone up to speed on where i stand. I currently have an 02' z06 with g5x4, lg pro's, supporting mods and NO heads making 450/417.

Now, moving on i have been tossing around the idea of doing a 402 or 408 to land around 530hp/500tq. While this initially is what i wanted to do the thought of FI has since crossed my mind and now i am slowly leaning more towards FI. My goal with that would be a forged 347 making somewhere around 700+hp/600+tq on pump 93. The car is not my dd and will be mostly a weekend warrior.

Can i get a little guidance on a good forged 347 build with details. Who, where, how much?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

-Justin

Check out our build on this C5 where we kept the stock crankshaft.

After several years of hard running on a road course we built an LS2/402 for this Corvette and added a larger ProCharger.

Talk to Arun at Champion motors.He's built some of the baddest 347s I've ever heard of.The US dollar is worth $1.25 Canadian which gives you 25% off.
Good luck.
