medium boost (10-12psi) 7.0 making 900 foot pounds of torque...900 peak horsepower...I'd blow 20 grand on that for sure. 9 second daily driver.....who wouldn't want that.

no, ls1's are attached to the mains, the hemi's have this design though.Very LS1 of them, don't you think?
and to the people doubting the capabilities of the new 6.2 and its heads, a a stroked/bored (427) made 1000 hp all motor. when is the last time ANY production based ford did that?
mmmmmmm.... well, i'd have to dig, it was tested in a roush's drag car a year or so ago, and S.A.M built the motor.
Hey SD...got a question for you. So what is the rough hp limit for 93 octane with a blown 4.6 stroked to 302?
Depends.
First: the only person around here in diapers is Matt D.
Second: there is no definitive answer on that question. Truth is it all depends on a variety of conditions which all contribute to octane volatility. What works in an n/a engine won't work in a supercharged engine. What works in centrifugals won't work in a roots or twin screw. None of the above will work with turbo(s). Same answer you'll get on that "magic horsepower number with stock connecting rods" question.
It depends. Power adder, engine mileage, plugs, plug gap, fuel pressure, fuel volume, pressure in the cylinders (cams/boost/timing), available fuel quality, driving conditions, and driver common sense. All play a role in how the engine tolerates octane.
