I assume you're talking 500rw, and it takes more than just a top end...

Top end and bolt-ons...

I put down 507.9RWHP with a CARTEK 4X [ported 243] Heads/Cam package, Fast 90/90, QTP 1-3/4" Headers, CARTEK Tune and all the common bolt-ons. This was all done on a stock 2001 bottom end LS1 with roughly 60K miles on it.

Car was dyno'd on a Dyno-Jet, and with 4:56 gears in a Strange 12-bolt.

I would call CARTEK 908-317-4496, they can definatly set you up with what you are looking for.

They know my car very well, obviosly, they built is, Just say you want what my car has

You are not going to hit 500rwhp N/A with a top end package on an auto, especially if you get a matched converter to make the most out of that package. All of these 500hp recipes are on M6s and were meticulously setup (aka: not just buying parts and slapping them on).

With our Street Sweeper cam, TFS 225 heads, Fast 92 w/ NW 92mm TB will put down 475-500rwhp through a 6spd or locked auto. We have our cam kits(cam, springs, pushrods, timing set, roller rocers) for LS1tech members for $1210. $2395 for the heads, $870 for the intake, $370 for the TB. I'll give you free shipping on everything if you decided to buy as a package.

Agreed!

But I think 10.32 @ 132 with 507RWHP in a 3300lbs car rowing the gears is doing both right? 500RWHP and runs "as fast as it should"

Here is the dyno BTW;



once again, my car is a 6spd... I did not notice if the OP was an Auto or manual...

Wow, sweet.... ok-ok 500 is the goal but high 400's are fine. Buying everything together seems like the way to go to save money, right?

A nice stall is mandatory and you will need a really nice exhaust too to get the most out of it. Then beef up your tranny and rearend. Torque arm to take the stress off your tranny tail shaft, LCA's... on and on when you make that kind of power.......
