thanks to Fraser at AES , and thanks to Mike for the assembly and for AES RACING they're a sponsor here , their site www.AESRacing.net
we put a target to reach the car above +1000RWHP , the car will be for street racing , not for a drag strip
if u got any questions i'll be glad to answer
thanks.

THat will be sick. Good luck and i hope you keep it, seems to me like the classified section is full of, "just finished fully building this car a week ago now want to sell for half price" type deals.
Hats off, 1000rwhp is no joke.

I'm very interested in your build. I did my build with the same goal, and feel I've reached it. I just haven't hooked up the juice to prove it yet so I only have NA numbers.
Will you share your combo? If it isn't built already, I'll warn you not to use a high pressure/high volume pump. Just use a high volume one. I'm having to port the opening along with cutting the spring to get my oil pressure from peaking well over 100 PSI when cold.
Are you using a typical fuel injection style intake, or carb intake? I found the carb intake flows more air. You can always throw on an elbow and use whatever TB you want.
Since you're building it for the street, what fuel do you plan to run? Sorry, I'm not writing a book or anything. I built my 441 LSX and am just curious about other people's builds. If I were to change anything, I might bump my compression ration to 12.5:1 instead of the 11:1 I'm running since I'm running it on E85 anyway. I'm making almost 750 HP at the flywheel NA, but I wouldn't mind that number being a little higher.

Keep in mind some people don't want the same thing everyone else has. There are lots of guys making big power with forced induction. Not as many doing it NA, and even fewer doing it NA on pump gas.
What I like about doing it NA is the fact I have to do absolutely nothing but downshift and punch it when I want to lay the smack down. No boost adjustment necessary, and I don't have to circle a gas station that sells race fuel. I also don't have to keep different tunes for racing and street. Of course, that's all up until N2O gets involved.
$50K is a lot of money, but this guy is building what he wants without compromise. You gotta love that. Later on he's not going to say, "Man, I wish I'd done just a little more."

i don't like the forced induction and also the weather in my country is so hot at all the year and won't help to run with that application , i wanna add also roll cage bar and torq thrust wheels because i'll run with 315 tires .
