There's people running 400+hp on a d-series.

you read my mind jpnolan. I was thinking the gsr engine maybe sleeve it and bore it to 84.5 mm and maybe even use the ls crank and rods in it so i can achieve close to 2 liters of displacement. 11.5.1 pistons or maybe 12.1 at most so i can run it on pump gas. port/polish the head. I want to keep it smog legal or at least the appearance of smog legal so turbo or sc or even lsvtec is out. If i could achieve 225-250 crank hp or close to it with as much torque as i can get , i would be happy.

Great start, i would run b16 pistons in an ls block, but why do you want to run an ls crank over a gsr crank.

zack:

I had read somewhere that by using the ls crank i could increase the stroke??? Is this right? I may be just talking out my backend without fully knowing what i am talking about lol.
