Stock bottom end maybe tough, im sure there out there though... I personally dont know of any but if you dug up some stuff you may be surprised on what you find... I know its done with SBC 350s but LT1s are a bit complicated dont you think?
I could get mine to 500 if I felt like spending the money but I have other things to worry about like rear end, gears, chassis and suspension

I won't be suprised at all, I know the capabilities of both platforms we are discussing. You obviously don't since you are saying 450Rwhp NA is nothing for a 331CI.
Not without going much bigger than you are. No reason to bring the "IF" into this.

Well, it already starts out with 350CI.... Stopsign is only working with 331CI.. He reached 450Rwhp and you need even more cubes to do it. And you say it isn't an accomplishment?

ok dude old news we already established that I dont know much about mustangs and if you didnt notice I already apologized for my lack of knowledge but now I know. if you want to keep dragging it out then be my guest. I missed the part where it was stock bottom end and all that
That shows lack of knowledge period. Right now your lack of knowledge goes to mustangs, bikes, lt1s, ls1s.. Care to continue?

I think there is something that needs reminded to everyone here:
There is always someone faster out there
and
You've all got something to learn about cars
No, I'm not an exception to this.
To the OP, if you want a good idea of what an LT1 can do and how to get your ET goal see here: http://www.top-et.com/impalass/ should be fairly easy to replicate these times in car that weighs 500lbs less.
I'd say before you start throwing money at a motor, figure out exactly where you want to be with your car and what will make you happy as an outcome. Old saying comes to mind: measure twice, cut once. I think I saw you mention having a second car to drive but if you plan on driving it on a regular basis you also have to keep streetability in mind. I've seen a lot of people slap you down here but none of them willing to point you in the right direction, hope I could be of even a small amount of help.

We aren't talking anything but cars.
You are the one that kept it up after we had already showed you that you were talking about things you knew nothing of. But now that your feelings are hurt I should stop so it doesn't keep showing how ignorant you are on the subject?

Don't neglect the rest of the car. When you are making big numbers you have to remember there is more to a car than its motor. You'll have to bullet proof your transmission and rear end as well as upgrade the fuel system and add a few things like subframe connectors and stickier tires as well as better brakes. Be sure to look at the whole package, but like I said before, set goals and figure out what the car is going to be used for. A lot less things are important in a drag only car vs an every day driver.
EDIT:
lemons12 beat me to the punch. Even if he has been one of the people against you he does have a very valid point there. (haven't paid much attention to who was flinging poo at who)

yea it will. especially if its with a 6 speed. it just wont buy all the supporing stuff. it will get u there but it wont keep u there after **** starts breaking.
you should really check out the lt1 section from time to time. 450 isnt too hard. maybe on stock cubes tho.

id be losing about 30 horse if I kept it auto with a stall but not sure if I want to put a manual in it to be honest id rather have my transmission guy beef it up a bit with a HD kit - he already told me when he rebuilt my tranny he would eat the cost of a stall of my choice so im saving some money there
