1000+ hp and low bucks dont necessarily go together. Check out a few of the sponsors...TSP, TR, etc.

Low buck or low buck....

of course 1000+ arent cheap, but if some say that you dont need to buy that crank for 2000 and rods for 1500 etc

there are plenty of people making 1000rwhp on stock crankshafts and forged rods/pistons. With high boost will they flex yes.... have there been many failures to date....? No.

How much power do you want to make? At around the 1000rwhp level the 4 bolt style heads are going to be the limit of keeping the head gaskets sealed consistently.

Thanx for your awnser
My plan was to use my PT88 and maybe 408 /427 stoker
Would rather run with a forge crank than my casted one, just in case..
So a mls gasket can not handle 1000 + even with arp head studs !?
most people here in Sweden running tuned cars running E85

The gaskets aren't the problem. The problem is the thin decks on the heads distorting when cylinder pressure is high. As far as turbo choice goes, I wouldn't run a t4 on a 400+ ci motor.

I wouldn't bother with a chinese crank. I'd spend the extra money for a Callies Dragonslayer if you absolutely have to use a forged crank.
