i made 790rwhp with a stock 98 cam, i would expect to pick up some with a z06 cam.
i can't reccomend looking outside of this site
, but wouldn't hurt to try some sponsors see if they have any group purchases going.

awesome #s. Did you have a 6speed before? What fuel system did you run?
Just wondering if you plan on doing anything chassis wise to your car, any power level even close to what you're talking about making isn't going to be good for much but burnouts.

full umi suspension, roll cage. Do get me wrong this car is going to the track its just not an all out track car. I want to drive it on the streets as well. Hey if you can run 1400hp supra on the the streets I think we can do big power too.
you cannot compare it to a supra.. its apples and oranges.
anyway i agree with a st76 and a 1000hp is way to much for a street car i think. with a gutted car and 600rwhp your gonna **** your pants. goodluck

I would say hooking tires on the street with 800 hp is very doable, just depends on the setup. I do it all the time. As mentioned above a small turbo with instaspool, would be the kiss of death. Where as, a larger turbo with a gradual spool over a 3-400 rpm would be able to hook. Even from a slow roll on the street, say 20-30 mph, I can brake spool to 11-12 lb and when I nail it, it will barely shift. Now I do have the 325 MT streets. I don't think you could hook any street tire.
BTW, that's at only 453RWHP. My $0.02; over 600 for the street is wasted power. If you can't put it to the pavement........
Good luck on your build
