Default Who can build me a 427 for boost?

Like the title says, who can do it? How much, I plan on running a Twin Turbo of some sort, maybe Twin56's, 60's, or even possibly 70's. I have some heads on the way from AFR, so I just need the shortblock, thanks and I would like prices as well.

For a bullet proof build, check out our Dominator series engines. For serious boost applications, I recommend an upgrade to the rods and billet main caps.

Default Ttt

I saw the page, and got a pm from Mickey, I am not sure, but will all of that hold to over 1000 RWHP? Do I even need all of these cubic inches to make over 1000 RWHP easily with some 60's or 70's?

If you are in Rapid's general area, and want a 427 TT, he'll get as much HP out of it as anybody can. What do you want this motor for, the strip? 4 fun? You'll need to do a top to bottom with that kind of HP, meaning suspension, drivetrain, and I hope you won't be cheap and leave out at least a 6 point roll bar to possibly save your life =). Considering all this, again I will suggest Rapid, because they are basically across the street from Phoenix Performance who does chassis and race car prep for lots of racers, and you'll need the one two package for sure.

Hey Cole there's lots involved in achieving your goal, more than I'd like to type! If you want you can PM me your number and I can try to help. I believe I'm going TT myself in the spring so I've done some homework.
