1000 rwhp on pump gas is going to be hard. A 427 would be the smallest you could go I think. A 454 would make things easier.

Get your wallet and plastic, fully prepared, and some Advil for the headaches that spending that much money will get you

I agree with Keith, a bigger inch motor will make that goal easier

What kind of car?

have ya done this before? /sarcasm

1000rwhp on PUMP GAS is a bad idea. sounds like a dyno queen goal over anything else. we've all been there.

the F1R is very capable of 1000rwhp. pump gas at that level is just a bad idea
