You should know that 450HP at the wheels is not cheap and requires waaaaay more than what we've discussed here (without nitrous of course). That's an entirely different ballgame. I am putting down those numbers, but only after spending about $10,000.

Yea I realized that after thinking about it! That would be the MAX but i need a daily driver! I am not going to use a 383 crank! I am going to just use the LT1 crank with scat rods with the Lt1 heads! So I was thinking big! lol

You could do 400whp with an AI heads/cam package and a 355 - that would be pretty easy and less expensive.

Since you'll be making some pretty decent power, budget for some 4.10s too.
