Built Block

Vinny

So.. Anyone have one yet? I have a shortblock on order from GTM, (stage 1) and eagerly waiting it's arrival.

On the GTM website, the block says it's rated to 600whp, but when I spoke to Sam, he said that it says 600 because they have to put a number on it, but really the pistons/rods are capable of more. What do you guys think?? How far would you push this block comfortably?

Also, can someone chime in about some differences in driveability with lower a lower compression engine? I chose (with the help of Sam and my shop) to go with 9:1 compression ratio. Will this affect how the engine runs at all? Also, I know that i'll have to boost higher to make the same power, but how will this affect torque numbers?

And last question, for anyone running a stage 2 TT kit. I don't remember what the injectors where running at. From what I understand, they should'nt be running higher than 95% or so, correct?
Thanks guys!
