The problem is that it's an exponential curve. You can take a stock LS1 that runs low-mid 13's, spend $2k and run mid 11's on the bottle.

Try to run 11.0 NA, or go into the tens, or the nines, and your expenditure will fly through the roof so fast....

It can be done, but gains over 430 are very expensive... ask me how I know IMO the fastest way to 500 RWHP and a 10 second slip is with a forged 402 and big spray. Yea I am at the end of my mods for this motor so I gues it's time to drive and do some suspension mods...

The cam specs aren't listed, probably a little lopey

And does require prepared, forged bottom end. Add headers and brick and brack, and it will be an LS7 price in parts.
