i'm not really sure what your asking, but they don't sell " stage 1 " etc. kits to reach a certain HP. your best bet is going to be a turbo, or twin turbo, or a S/C with heads/cam and full bolt ons forged internals etc new rear end etc... and some nitrous if your feeling riskay. that help ya any?

Talking about stages shows off one's newness to the sport/lifestyle... You'll need to do a lot of research on engine building to build 700hp on a budget. If you'd rather blow a lot of money buy a built motor from lingenfelter. Hit up your local bookstore ? and see what you can find on the topic.

What he means is, that say he has a base LS1, 1. Lid and cut out will put him at 380 HP, 2. Boltons around 420 HP, 3. H/C around 500 HP so on and so forth, all engine ratings. Use the search man, that will help you the most, but here you go, check this out...http://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=361959 that'll get you started, then you'll just need to find what brands you want to go with.

i put down i think 350 something to the ground with just headers, so yeah at the flywheel it would be something like 380. :lurk:

maybe I misread it, but I was under the impression that he owns a shop, and maybe is trying to SELL upgrade stages. like his customers would go in and request a stage 1 upgrade, and he would do ___________.... stage 2 would be _________ It seems like he is trying to figure out what type of upgrades to offer per stage.

maybe like stage 1 full boltons, stage 2 h/c, stage 3 nitrous and rearend/suspension, stage 4 turbo/sc,
