Sparky, its pretty hard to beat an LS with a hairdryer on it. The boys over at hot rod magazine took a junkyard LS, swapped the cam and hung a turbo on it. This was a few years ago, but after they got done horse whipping the hell out of it, the Dodge thing made close to 1000hp with stock guts! Now, I realize they may have exaggerated a bit for the sake of entertainment, but if they were within 15 to 20 percent of that number, that's pretty darned cool in my book.
