Procharged 408 corvette advice!
10.0-1 Compression, Callies DRAGONSLAYER crank and Ultra H Beam rods, (no compstar junk on a big blower build). F1A-94 or F1X....Or better yet a YSi. E85/meth or 93/meth.
F1c and F1R won't get you 1000rwhp..atleast not without a VERY aggressive tune... An R is done at 950 rwhp on average..and larger the cubes, sooner it will peak and nose over.
I'm of the camp of medium compression, more boost and less timing. In my experience, timing will yack head gaskets(detonation) faster then boost.
Thick deck heads and atleast ARP 2000 head studs are a good idea.
Good luck on your build.
Me and Detoxx are on the same page on this stuff....I guess because we've done it.

ok so it looks like 10.2 is the way to go, by chance does anyone have or know a site for a good compression estimator so I can figure out what -cc piston I should pick up... also another note, is the F1R streetable? theres a awesome deal on one over on the vette foum that has me tempted but im not sure if that would be a little to much.. thanks for all the tips and advice!
