15k!!! I wish I had that for my build...

Lq4/lq9 forged into a 408
A T6 turbo kit
Some nice heads with nice top end accessories like springs, cam, rockers etc...
Good twin fuel pump with accessories
Gas/meth or e85
Built t56
9 inch rear w/ wavetrac I think it's called

I still kept A budget in mind so some nice cushion seats, roll cage or suspension mods
But that's all I can dream of.

Jy 5.3 2005+
Gt2-3 cam
Ls9 gaskets
Arp head studs
Ls6 intake

Cea 7675 turbo

That set up is proven and could be built for a 1/3 of your budget. Take the other 10k and get the suspension to work

With that kinda budget 1000hp should be your goal. I make 600 and 700 hp cars outta these junkyard 4.8's and 5.3's with hand me down turbo's.
