Well....first you have to analyze your budget. Make sure you know EXACTLY how much money you have to spend on this build. Most of the time you will ALWAYS go over budget. I've seen people boost motors over 200k. My opinion is too do a compression/leakdown test on the motor to make sure it's sound. If that all checks out boost that motor. For the price of a gsr swap and the hassle of putting it in you can have 100 more whp and better turbo components for less $ in the ls. Just my 2 cents. I just built my ls so if you have questions pm me.

thanks! i'm hopeing to get 83mm 9.5:1 pistons soon so i can go into the 400whp range safely on pump gas. i would do some more head work and get some aggressive cams but my wallet is dried right now after buying my new house this past Oct. 04.
i needed a place to hide my baby from thieves.
