400 rwhp?????
400 rwhp????? So i already have a LS6 intake, LT's, TSP 3in ORY, and 4.10 gears. I'm doing a cam swap and will be going with Futral's F11(228/230 .576/.595 114LSA). Along with the cam i will be ditching my 853 heads for 243 heads that i am currently having ported. My car is an automatic so i will be doing a Circle D 3600 stall. With all this being said is 400 rwhp doable?
I would say it's doable! And if nothing else, have the heads milled when ported. The slight bump in compression would net you some more power. That would help with reaching your goals!
But IMHO, I say it's very doable. But don't get too caught up on the dyno numbers. How it runs on the street/track is whats gonna matter most! Dyno numbers can be hidden or inflated on a dyno. Just remember that. I have seen 370 rwhp cars Rape 400+ rwhp time and time again. Power under the curve is where it's at.
Good Luck!

You should definitely put down 400. But remember that your gearing and stall will eat away power on the dyno, so your car will feel much faster than a 400rwhp that the dyno will spew out.

Awesome. Thanks for the inputs guys. I plan on taking it to Bristol for the Thursday night street fights when i get done with it. I would like to see it in the mid 12's after all my mods are done.

You have a solid 11 second car if you can launch it.
Yeah i still have the stock 10 bolt so i'm afraid to really hook hard with that much power. I understand that automatics are supposed to be easier on the rear though. What type of tire should i run on the back to get it to hook pretty decent?
