I was just wondering how much power to suspect from my build. The motor is 402 9-1 cr L92 heads with a lg5xb cam with long tubes and a vortech v3 t trim or a ysi with 12psi of boost with a m6 . hopping for 650 hp want to be able to take down ZR1

ZR1 is about 560 at the wheels. You should be well over that. As long as your motor isn't going in a 5500 lb truck, you should do well against the ZR1. 12psi with L92 heads, a good blower cam, and bolt ons should make way over ZR1 power levels.

you have to remember the weight difference that goes along with that 560 to the wheels. Those new zr1's are no joke. Look at some of the vids on the net. They scoot.
