adder thats my plan iam building up... dart block with a 4.125 bore, crank for a 408( the extra .125 inches makes 427cu just a little shorter stroke to increase redline a bit) chi 3v 276cc heads, chi 3v intake, forged dish pistons, forged h beam rods, long duration/lift custom ground cam, f-2 procharger pullied to max s/c impeller speed at 7800 rpm, meth injection, intercooler, and crossing my fingers i can get it to run on 93 octane with that much boost. looking to lay down 1200-1400 rwhp at around 7-7.2k rpm backed by a t-56 viper spec, 4.10's, and 35 spline axels.
That's the biggest pipe dream I've seen in quite awhile.

Not just the money, but the mismatch of parts. It looks like someone has been looking into what cool parts are but has no understanding of how it all goes together.

I will take your word for it . All that pro charger, meth injection and yadda,yadda, is way over my head. My engine is alot more simple than anything like that.

Use a new BOSS Ford block and a forged stroker kit to get 363CID.
Then some good heads, my fav's are TFS.
Solid roller Cam about .640 lift and duration in 250's.
Do drivetrain/suspension work as required and you'll be 11's if you everything sorta right........

With that cash, you can buy a different oneand do the mods to it to run 12s and use your current one as a daily driver...

screw all that, terminator engine ftw. the motor itself can be gotten for about 6-8 grand with the trans and a pully swap and u will have more power and torque than just about all the combos listed except that chi one. yea u will need to do some fabrication but hey the end result will be worth it.
