Default how can I make 500rwhp

Hello I'm trying to make 500rwhp, and wt is the best way to make that without nitrious or turbo/supercharge.

I have a 2002 camaro A4 trans i have 118k miles on the car, 323gears, with LT headers, thinking of putting true duals in the future.

And trickflow is offering head combo idk if you guys have seen it. There on summitracing.

A stroker motor with a healthy HCI combo would do it

you mite get a better deal from vengeance racing on trick flow heads.consider some AFR heads and a fast 102 intake ,have Tony Mamo finish porting them both .get a custom cam from EPS.you will need a bigger every thing ,MAF,fuel pump and injectors .get a 4000rpm+ stall.you will need a great cold air intake set up.

Sounds good but putting 500hp on a stock cube could mess something up?

Air flow research heads ,a Tony Mamo top end with his cam would get you close to your goals.EPS is a performance shop that is good with cams .

Your bottom end will be fine at those power levels for a very long time. I would get in contact with Total Engine Aiflow and have them setup some TrickFlow 215cc heads for you, then have Pat G, Martin @ Tick, or even EPS custom grind you a camshaft. Throw on a FAST 102 and you should be close. Keep in mind, your 4L60e, and 10 bolt will not last at these power levels.

500 rwhp from stock cubes is going to be extremely expensive. You are going to have to lighten the car and run a at least a 410 rear because to get that HP it will be a peaky curve to get there. You will also have to spend a lot of money on the running gear to lighten it up so it doesn't suck the power.
Other then a number I don't see why anyone would bother.

I have seen 2-3 cars breaking 500rwhp on a stock block na during the time i'v been on the forum. Every single part was micro analyzed and a full out effort for power. Also m6. Your better off shooting for 450rwhp. My car is not a full effort but I cant imagine making 500rwhp. Also who knows what it would read on a dynojet.
