Default New to me 2016 2SS need help.

Purchased a 2016 2SS today, car has lots of tasteful mods but unfortunately I know near nothing about the capabilities/available mods. Very mechanically inclined but looking for some insight on the car as far as safe power levels, tuning, next modifications, etc. Car looks, runs and drives like absolutely new. Extremely clean near factory appearing setup.

Innovators west balancer
Forgestar 17” drag pack

C&R heat exchanger
Custom upper and lower control arms

Well you got thess upgraded fuel system, pistons and rods which allow the engine to make the numbers you are making.

If it was my car I would have two concerns:

1. LT4 blower creates alot of heat being spun like that. Car is definitely not making over 700 after a few pulls.
(look into killer chillers or upgrading the blower to a Magnuson )

2. Not many LT1's live very long at those power levels even with your upgrades.
These shops will sell you a package and then when your motor calls it quits they'll sell you another even bigger package that their 200 mile a year shop car has been running flawlessly on for years
