1000whp...

I was referring to you did this when I was in grade school. I'm older than you are. I'm glad that you have built a fast car, but I still don't think you can build a reliable 1000 rwhp car for 10K out of stock block, crank and heads. The 10K and the crank is more the sticking point than the block and heads. Boost masks inefficient heads and an iron block will probably take the HP but you'd have to do some work to it. The crank stock from GM would not live at that power level for very long.

im not saying u can drive it everywhere and beat on it all season and not have some crank chatter issues but it can and has been done
will it stay together all year? not too sure but at those horsepower levels will any engine??
if your just cruising it around and boosting 15lbs from stop light to stop light??? it will last a long long time
but if u want to boost 25 lbs and shoot a 75 shot to it u will break the 1000 mark and it will stay together for dyno pulls
shoot the spray at 5500rpm after max torque and u got it no problem

im not saying it will be a grenade
dude made like 1300 at the crank with this set up and never grenaded it
he went 8.06 and only thing wrong when dissasembled was some crank chatter wich any boosted engine will have

I highly doubt that Camaroandres (which you're referring to) has under 10k in his set up. In his engine....maybe under 10k. He's got stock crank and heads, but that's about all thats stock. And don't forget he ran an 8.06 in a totally gutted out, suspensioned out, dedicated drag nova on E85. The turbo alone probably cost 2k. We're saying could you build an engine to make 1K whp for $10k? of course.....what will it run with the remainder? i say low tens!

It's funny how all you guys are so quick to start bragging and talking ****.
Am i new to ls1's? yep sure am since i worked for Ford Motor Co for 17yrs.............
Dude my last 4cyl build made 426rwhp with a stock 100 dollar shortblock
factory form it made 185 at the flywheel..............
I am going to lift my 317's with pyramid rings huh??? Start reading kids....
You guys want hard facts? over the summer i went 9.16 with a stock ls2 shortblock with trick flow225 heads and factory headgaskets factory bolts super victor intake with a hp 950 carb and 175 single plate shot thru the mufflers with a turbo 400 and a used converter on 1.99 a gallon e85. did i ever say u needed race gas????
in a MUSTANG!!
You guys don't believe me than dont .No matter to me but it can be done for 10K!
Are you going to have the car first??? yes i already said this didn't i?
And who is saying you cant build a kick *** engine from used parts???
Never heard that before either...................
if you guys want to spend the money on heads and other items go ahead man do it but u can make 1000 rwhp on stock heads stock manifolds stock crank and stock block! it has been done already guys .............. just research it

Lets use this analogy. cars=girls. The guys you go to school with are only defending their ugly retarded girlfriend. They are blinded by love for their first vehicle and cant see what a piece of $hit it is.

when you're building stuff, it all adds up quick. its never the big stuff. you'd need 500+ for the fuel system alone. -8 front to back, 2-3 pumps, reg, fuel rail, fittings, and a sumped tank or fuel cell.

Do you honestly think you can skip steps to save a little money here and there in a 1000Rwhp build and have **** not blow up?
This isn't some 700Rwhp build, that is nothing and skips can be skipped on a build like that. 1000Rwhp is a whole different level of a build.
