My goals

Well the goals for my car is a 480rwtq and 475rwhp car. I was thinking a 408 block, head and cam package, naturally aspirated no forced induction. This is all after suspension and new rear end. My question is not what parts or products or which sponsor to go to but is this a healthy, or at lease attainable goal? any input, negative or positive would help.

thanks

Healthy? I can't answer cause I don't know how you drive.

As far as attainable. Hell yeah. With a 408, heads and cammed you'll have no problem hitting your goals. You got guys hitting that with the 346.

very attainable......also FWIW the more "head" you buy..... the smaller the cam you can afford to go with and STILL hit your goals, and be VERY streetable all at the same time

i mean I know you need more displacement to get more torque. I rather have more torque than horsepower. I know it isn't cheap to be fast either but I'm just seeing what to do research on. If I don't need the 408 block to get 480 rwtq that is better for me less $. I don't want a 650HP monster I mean it is still my daily driver. Of course I want it streetable I have kids.
