You will likely be on the edge of that fuel system if you're shooting for 1000whp on E85. Are you hoping to do this on a stock bottom end?

Yes this fuel system is capable of 1000rwhp, I have a buddy with a similar setup making that. The only thing I see is maxing the injectors out first.

I would go with more spring! Spend $60 more and get BTR duals.

I have no idea what power it equates too but I've run my 88mm up to 26PSI and I'm getting 89-91% out of the Holley 160's on e85. I would think base pressure plays into it a good bit since they flow 168lb at 43psi, 197lb at 60psi and 221lb at 75PSI.

Why does everyone think they can make 1000whp on a stock 5.3 and a stock 4l80e with a shift kit? That stupid hot rod magazine ruined everything. Hope you don't oil down the track too bad when something gives out

forge bottom end, magnafuel + 450 for fuel system,

get good studs and heads with a bit thicker deck

keep in mind 480 will blow and will soak up some HP, the built 480 is a good choice and that convertor sounds like it's up to the task

1k is pretty exciting and will likely tax the chassis as well
