I was worried about the bottom end. can I run a cam with the sc?

run a blower cam and you will be fine, but like 97 said you dont need heads and cams for 400-450 rwhp

yeah you dont want to push it. I would never run more than 425-450rwhp on a stock bottom end, but thats just me. Add an intercooler and smaller blower pulley and you're there

Just curious, with forged internals why aren't you pushing for more?

Well I would like more, but I'm in process of fixing the T45. (the T45 Source) street/strip. So funds are limited

Is it the guts of the 2V that won't hold up or the whole engine? I've got forged rods, pistons, I'm making this a 2 yr project. Slowly buying stuff here and there.
