You can easily reach 500 RWHP with a LS2 and a great tune. Tuning is key with these motors. Anyone running a swap setup I would run a relay from the GM PCM to power the 255 fuel pump. Also for the AC set, I ran a relay coming from the fan switch to pwer a pressure switch on my AC line that controls the AC compressor. By this setup I am able to turn my ac on like I would stock and it will still cut off at the correct pressure without me having to hit a switch. The only problem I'm still having is the rad cooling my system. I just ordered a dual pass rad with custom fab shroud for my two fans. Can't get the temp under 220*. Will have new parts weds. The LS2 motor Pistons are good up to around 580 HP, Crank 900 HP, Rods 580 as well. I'm sure you could get more out of it, this is just what I got out of one of my GM books.

I had the same issue with sikky deleting my check engine light from GM computer and my AC line.

I saw that Royal is considering it. I called them twice and left messages and never got a return call, so I crossed them off my list. Just my experience.

Bolt ons. They run 10s bone stock(down to the OEM tire) It was on low boost. I actually plan on going faster with my new NA/nitrous big cube setup thats in production. My turbo kit is going up for sale.

Thanks for the info. I'll probably just email Sikky and see if they can work their magic on a 5.3 harness. I don't see it being much different than an ls2's.

First time slip at the track on some MT ET Streets, stock suspension and untuned. No trans brake so I could only launch at 2,000rpm's... for now. Looking to get a higher launch rpm and tune the car and head back one more time this year. Then it is time for nitrous over winter!
