You probably know harrop do 9" and 12 bolt setups for the holden. Plus US BMR do forged half shafts etc. There is a good writeup on ls1gto.com from a sponsor setting up their demo car with loads of beefy stuff and all the issues etc. Check out the suspension threads if interested.

What's the likely output once it's all built? It's got to be getting close to 1000bhp? Will it be detuned for street driving?

Harryoz, just a few questions, do they torque it all up with plastigage and then change the shells if required and is it normal to use cooperease on the case bolts. Only asking btw. Built quite a few V-Twin bike engines and the main case bolts would be dipped in engine oil before assembly. Engine would be temporarily built with small shells to size up the actual shells required.?
