for all the guys thinking of a cool V8 project check this engine, simple little all aluminum 5.3L LS build 491HP Options

I have mentioned this combo on and off to a couple of people but I had lost the link to the build... recently ran across it and found out why I lost the link (once it went into a magazine I suspect the build thread needed removed).

Such a sweet little combo, pump gas, even the cheaper build with stock heads made great power. Me thinks a perfect, light-weight all alum ~320ci LS Chevy build for a teener. Keep the 5.3L dish pistons instead of the 4.8L flattops too and the power would come down slightly but ensure running on any pump fuel.

Nice read if considering a V8 project street car.
