After market block owners
Just out of curiosity what do you guys have and how much did it cost you to get a fully forged 427 block? Rhs lsx etc down the road from

Wondering the cost for long block only. Ima do my own research for now but would like to get some feed bad from people who own/experienced it.
Thanks
In advance

Hey there!! I was in your same situation as well till I cracked a sleeve on cylinder 7. So im going through it now. I was lucky enough to get a ERL superdeck 427 from them before they closed their doors.

nice where you stay at? That 12k is just the short block alone. Look up vengeance racing’s website under packages and they have a 1300hp package it will give you an idea of what’s involved and the total price. I know every shop is different and depends on your setup you choose to go with it can be done cheaper or expensive just depends on your wallet.

Late Model Engines, LSX iron block, 1500 to 2500 Hp, take a look around and you'll have a really good idea. You might want to consider setting your LS7 off to the side and build an LS3. Much cheaper, and the car will be worth more with a stock LS7 if you switch back.

Solid 1000hp setup is around $35k in parts. Engine alone $15k or so. Fuel system will be 2500+. Drive train will cost just as much as motor if not more. Cooling system, etc. Cheaper to buy a complete car.
