I hope you know what you're getting yourself into. 600rwhp all day on decent boost, but if you want to start getting towards 700rwhp you'll need cams and more boost and a hell of a tune to get pump numbers up there. E85 might be something for you to look into for the power goals you want. Good luck!

Oh awesome man... I want SO bad to do an eaton swap in my car.

I've settled to concentrating on suspension mods for now. Car doesn't do any good being in the 300HP range if I can't keep it on the road.

Good and Bad News!

Good news is I started it and it ran fine
Bad news is I have a small oil leak from each valve cover

Here's the start up video!!

The first time I got scared and turned it off.


Second time went a little smoother.
