**600hp sbm block limit? Or is it bs!!**
So 750hp is the new 600…..
to be honest you rarely hear about block issues with the LA. Our old 340 block served us well until the Eagle rod exited. Mains looked like new when it expired just short of 200 passes.… but it led an easy life. My dad short shifted it for most of its life as the car wasn’t 9.99 legal. Think he was shifting at 5800. We ramped it up to 7200 one time and it clicked of a 9.7. Prob was 9.5s in it if the damn W5s wouldn‘t have broken our hearts. Our block was 1/2 filled and we did run aftermarket main caps.
