Arrow I want more power!

Ok so im having my car worked on and this is whats going on, we are putting in brand new 347 with all the goodies. Diamond pistons, lunati rods, new 233. 239. 600. intake 603. exhaust, stage 3 patriot heads, z06 intake, forged 6.0 crank, hardened pushrods, 36lbs injectors, 3000 yank stall, underdrive pullies, and 4.10 gears, so I guess my question is now what should I do to it? I would like to go all motor for now but here in about 6 months the guy whos doing my car will sell me a brand new STS turbo set up for cheap so i have been thinking about it but i have to change my heads. I need more options i guess.

Help me out I want more speed and by the way what do you think dyno #s should be on my setup, i was told anywere from 400rwhp to 475rwhp so i dont know.

HP is up in the air. Who realy knows. I have no ideal of what HP i will put down with my motor and it is a 370 with 9.1CR. But i will say that those 4.10s are going to get old realy quick. I would go with a set of 373 and a bigger stall.

If he goes Turbo then 3000 is plenty but NA, I agree with goober. Get a stall which matches its shift extention range to your shifts.

lsx 90mm intake/tb, electric water pump, kooks LT headers w/ true duals, go bigger with the cam, and any more power you want just hose the sucker ... for best track times, tear anything you can live without out
