We don't mess around when it comes to maximizing horsepower potential; this engine was no exception. Recently completed and dyno'd, this 376ci LS3 equipped with a 2.9L Whipple supercharger made 1009HP and 875.9 Torque! The poppin' caliper red block paint paired with a beautiful gloss black 2.9L supercharger from Whipple is sure to turn heads on the street and track. 

The future home of this Wegner powerplant is a 1966 Chevy Nova build. Check out the dyno run in the video below along with the build pics!
