Default C5z bad motor

Hey guys just picked up a nice 01 c5z with a hole in the side of the block. Looking for a short block replacement that will be able to handle a ysi. Let me know what you recommend! Thanks

I like a forged crank iron block with well ported tfs heads

I happen to have one if you need it, or a forged ls6 engine out of my twin turbo car

either will handle 900 + without issue

the forged bottom end ls6 is putting down 800 at the tire at 18 psi through an auto
