You do realize the current LSX block is cast iron? If you want a large bore alum block go with the Chevy LS7, World Products, or Dart all have large bore alum blocks.

True, but the LSX is superior to the LS7 and less then half the price of the Dart and Warhawk. I think it weighs about 80 lbs more than the stock LS2 block. It also allows you to use cylinder heads with 6 bolts per cylinder instead of 4 bolts. Great for high boost/high power.

Merry Christmas
