that 300 stock is at the crank, not to the wheels. Getting 351 HP crank would probably only take like a CAI/tune and UDPs

351 to the wheels would be all bolt ons + cams or heads pretty much

I dyno'd @ 289hp on Brenspeeds dyno.Im proboblyclose to 340at the wheels. My mods are:

CAI & tune
Flows
O/R H
3.73's
Water pump
UDP

At the time, I had 18" tires with 285's on the rear. If my stock tires were on, my numbers might have been a bit better.

Good luck!

Joolander, looking at options.. I thought about doing a thing toward the 351.. Do a hockey stick with 351 on it, or above it.. Not ready to go toward a supercharger.. I figured my mods are step by step so i thought if i could go toward a 351 style thing, i could get there faster and cheaper and still have the power that gets me a stiffy..

Red, why the upgrade on the waterpump.. Well anyone, why an upgrade on the waterpump??

I don't want to mess with my rearend gearing.. I want to be still able to drive the car when it rains.. lol..

Since mine is an 07, when i put headers and ahigh flow catted x pipe, will that kick my light on? If it will, i'd rather get Headers, X pipe, CAI and Tuner all at once..

UDP's, i'v not ruled them out at all..Weight'n the pros and cons..useing the "search" option of the site..


Gloat time.. At the 10 year class reunion today, we had it in the state park.. Had lotsof peoplecomplaminting (sp??) the car.. Lots of kids pointing at it.. So i feel pretty good about that..

oh, im all for N/A power, i think its more respectable that F/I, thats why i won't buy a blower, turbo, or "naws" (no offense to any of you, its just not my thing)

i just thought 351hp was an arbitrarily exact number

i think the 351 markings would imply CID, not hp. To me anyway. unless you put "GT351"

which might be cool

you read my mind.. Just like people puting GT300 decals on, just up the ante with some add ons and such.. Its a thought that i really like the idea of..
