It's looking like I may be ordering an LSx in a couple of days; LS2 shortblock, L92 heads, L76 intake, all brand new. I might even be ordering 2 (1 for a friend's 66 Corvette project.)
I'll build the turbo setup around it and run it as-is with 7 psi of boost for a year or so and then go with good rods, Mahle pistons, and AFR or ETP heads and throw 15-16 psi at it.
Doing some last minute research now for what oil pan to run; waiting to hear back what Andrew used in the L92 in his GTO; I believe the CTS-V pan fits with no mods.
Now to decide on an ECM; I can't decide if I want to go factory ECM & EFI Live (need to do more research on the capability of it in speed/density), go with a FAST XFI (I know the system very well but am not happy with their lack of real-time altitude compensation), a Pantera setup from Lance, or the M-90 from MAST which offers a ton of cool features but I haven't got any real-world feedback on it yet.
