All their numbers for crates are via flywheel, what would your plans for this thing be?

specs? circle track motors usually run at specific rpm ranges and may not be great on the street.

You can pick up a gen 1 block that will make that power with ease for a LOT less money, and it'll drop in a lot easier and you can still have a carbed car

you're 18 and have no budget concerns? nice.
why bother with LS and a carb? if you want to run carb why not do heads & cam on that 350/290hp you sig listed?
ls?

$$ wise you'll probably be far ahead with a pull out 6.0 and go from there. iron block engines are not that expensive.

6.0 or 6.2 LS motors are the way to go - get one out of a wrecked truck or car.
Keep in mind that you can get 530 to 570 streetable HP out of those motors with just a cam, heads (sometimes stock ported), and tuning.
You will need a totally new exhaust, upgraded fuel system, electronics, and other items to make that work right.
Carb is counterproductive on a car with limitless EFI tuning capability...

custom turbo kit 2000$
intercooler 700$

Ok so iron block 6.0 i can get one for 200$ its a long block fuel systems easy to get now it comes down to the harness computer and intake n all that fuel ignition **** i dont raeally like lol. Marry it to a t-56 transmission. My exhaust i no ill need new headers but i have a brand new magnaflow cat back on her. So to start ill get the 6.0 heads worked cam i have no idea what to get. Ill most like put this motor in carb first becauae i have the carb conversion kit( got whole thing at swap meet for 50 buchs). Lastly if im going to be running an iron block fuel injected this motors gonna get super charged,
