Default Most n/a rwhp

Hey guys, whats the most n/a rwhp im going to see staying with the stock block, with full bolt ons, heads and cam, and keeping the car streetable. It isnt a daily driver, but I dont want to be limited because it will be driven often.

Some extreme H/C packages are just under 500rwhp....480-490 is getting more common.

for those large numbers like 480's you'll more than likely need to either forge the block with pistons that use valve reliefs or flycut the pistons, because some of the big cams with milled heads just wont fit

Yea, if your gonna try and push the stock block to around 500rwhp N/A, then I'd definately forge the bottom and upgrade all the little components too like bolts, bearings, etc. 450rwhp is a pretty healthy number for a stock block but pushing it to around 500rwhp is pushing it.
