Who's runing the stock block, crank and rods with Forged pistons?
I'm just curious as to how may LS7's are running stock blocks with the stock crank and rods and have just changed out the pistons.
What:
1) compression ratio
2) Brand pistons
3) Power added if any
4) RWHP
5 How long have you had this set up.

What:
1) compression ratio - 11.25:1
2) Brand pistons- wiseco
3) Power added if any - 150 shot
4) RWHP - 572whp on motor between 700 and 750 on spray
5) How long have you had this set up. Half a year, three bottles though it at 150 shot.
Also all ARP hardware on the bottom end

No problem man, I'm doing the same thing you are just trying to get information before I invest my money. I really think is long as I stay under 800 hp I should be able use a stock crank and rods as long as I upgrade the Pistons
