gmpp lsx 376
ok I am recently in need of a motor for my car. This 376 looks pretty decent for a complete boost ready motor. stab it with intake and oil pan and roll on. But befor I pull the trigger do yall know if there is any builders that can build anything better and as complete as this one for this price? around $5500. Thanks guys

He sold the car shortly after completion to a guy in the pacific NW...also should make note that on another dyno besides where he had it built, it put down a hair over 700 RWHP. Not knocking or blaming anyone, but almost a 200 HP difference is a lot when comparing the integrity and longevity of a motor......... 
Yes. It is an iron LSX block. The LSX 376 has powdered metal rods, forged pistons, and a lower compression ratio (around 9.0:1 I believe) than the LS3 counterpart.
