I have driven a couple of 600-700RWHP blower cars and they are insane from just about any rpm. Blowing the tires loose with a 4th gear punch at 80mph is insane!
With 15-17#s boost you can see 8-10#s of boost VERY low in the rev range.
My car traps ~127mph through cats naturally aspirated at 3600 pounds with a stroker. These cars I drove trap 133-137mph at 200 pounds more raceweight!

I will probably just stick with the stock cubes. I would like to see around 650hp with 600tq at the wheels. I have the D1SC will i need the F1 for this or can i spin the D1 fast enough to get the boost i want for that amount of power? Also what size injectors and fuel pump. I have 42# injectors and a walbro 340 intank right now.

That's what i was hoping you would say. Honestly 650 will do me good. I am running 531 at the wheels now and it's quite fun so i can't imagine 120 more! Anyway i will just get the 60#er's. You have any suggestions on a bullet proof rotating assembly?

Verdad Gallardo you biggest cost in all of this is the labor. If you *think* you might want more power later, now is a good time to beef up your short block. The more planning ahead you do now, the easier it will be on your wallet.
you might try giving HPE (281 448 1300 ask for Erik) or one of the other sponsors a call. These guys build LSx's in their sleep.
Your goals are certainly attainable (sp). The best thing to do is to decide on what you want, then research it to figure you cost. A lot of the sponsors will bend over backwards to help you make an informed decision.

Definitely do the rods especially if you plan on going up in power/rpm down the road.
A return based fuel setup is quite easy to do and not too expensive. You can put a regulator by the block where the fuel filter is now or put the regulator up by the rail and run a return line.
