why not? trex can make over 400 hp, and TNT's power ring produces great results. a 150 shot on top of say 430hp would technically be 580hp, but like i said about the TNT...it would actually be over 600hp...

during the project, i was looking for aroung 575 RWHP. Reading the out come on the Power Ring and the power range of the T-Rex cam I though that this would be the best set up to try. I also saw on a sponsor fourm that they also had a power package that they tried out. It was a 585/589. 112 with a set of heads I think 62 or 64 MM and a 200 shot that made about 680 RWHP. I could not believe it when the last run on the DYNO at Trussville Alabama pulled out 602 RWHP. They even asked if it had heads and engine work. I just want to share this with all. So for about $3500, starting from stock LS1 engine you should be in this ball park.

Good numbers, but don't run it at the track with the 10 bolt in there. then you need to buy a new motor as it won't last. Also check you plugs regularly.

I can believe it. My H/C/TNT 100shot set-up made 576rwhp/590rwtq. As for it being a ticking time-bomb, I disagree. It is all in the tuning, especially with thye factory short-block. My set-up delivered for three years before pushing a head-gasket. When the engine was torn down, it looked perfect. Yes, I have since gone all forged stroker, but the LS1 bottom-end isn't as fragile as most people think...
