What kind of power goal do you have?

Budget? Are you reusing your heads are getting bigger heads for the larger motor?

I've been tossing around a similar idea.

I have purchased some TEA Stage 3 heads, LS3 valves, Brian Tooley springs, Katech C5R chain, LS7 lifters, ported, shimmed oil pump, will decide on a cam once my rotating assembly is balanced, installed... they flow 340cfm... I'll be selling my current set up.... EVERYTHING on this motor will be BRAND NEW! ZERO miles on all of it... My builder is "guessing 550-610 to the wheels depending on cam... you know, i'll keep you guys posted... crawl,walk, RUN like a ****!!

Stay tuned.

Here is what I will be selling minus the oil pan, accessories...
Includes ported intake, Loyd Elliot stage 1 LS6's (milled .59cc) G5X2.. It's in my sig..
