What does it take What goes into a Max Effort Turbo motor?
I would like to run my motor at 850 RWHP untill next trip to the desert, then build a new bullet and toss my PT101 on it and hit it with as much as that turbo can throw at it. Thinking LSX Block and All Pro LSW Heads.. Same GMPP Single Plain Intake, Just have no clue on the cam required and Rotating assy and pistons to use to take that abuse...
Also want to keep the car motor plateless and keep the 6 speed in it untill I cant afford to replace 6 speeds, or I get a sponsership from a trans vendor like liberty lol.

oh PS how many passes are those aluminum rods good for? Are they necessary to take some of the shock load of 40PSI or so of boost? How do the bearings hold up? I was on my dad's top alcohol dragster crew 2008 season and I had to check upper rod bearings every single pass because they would squish under 58 PSI of boost!
How many RPMS does a max effort turbo motor spin and what is a good example of some cam specs?

well I understand about the cam specs, I had to pay $100 for mine, and people tell me its Backwards from what it should be! 231/239 .649/.651 117
How about this, what RPM do you try to make peak HP at, and do these engines run any overlap and blow boost out the exhaust until high rpm or do they still run a wide LSA like street turbo cams and try to get the RPM potential from large duration numbers?
