A stock LS6 has gen1 rods and they are limited to about 600rwhp for reliability sake if you want to really pound on it.

The stock LS7 block has thin sleeves and not the best for supercharging.The factory dry sump also sucks ass and not worth the extra expense.

Your best bet would be to sell your running LS6 and either do an LS3 motor with supercharger cam/dual springs/larger injectors/tune and a supercharger.... or just buy the crate LSA motor and do a ported blower, pulley, cam/tune.

Have you thought about turbocharging? That's what I did for 1/2 the price of an LSA motor and plan to make a hell of a lot more power. You can do boost by gear/time/speed and really control how the power comes on.

what fuel management/computer are you running? is e85 readily available in your area?
