Default How much money have you guys put into your car to make it FAST?

I have a 1995 Z28 LT1 M6. My car is stock and I would like to know how much horsepower can $4000 bucks give me. My goal is 350rwhp...Can I achieve this goal of mine for $4000 grand?

^ I'm sure the mods will move it for me. Plus, I didn't know where to post it.

if you could get a good deal on an LS1 or LQ4 or LQ9 6.0 from a truck/suv, get one and cam it while its on a stand and do the swap! that'll net you around 4k and 350rwhp.

Sure, the engine can make 350rwhp with 4K no problem.

However, I'd put 2500 of that towards a rear end or else you'll be replacing one soon.

I would just do fully boltons then buy a rear end so you could go heads/cam or forced induction later on
